Cost of Gorilla Trekking in Rwanda

Discounted offers for conference guests to Rwanda. The actual cost of trekking mountain gorillas in Rwanda is $1500. All people including Rwanda nationals pay this money. Rwanda offers the highest gorilla permits since 2017 when Rwanda Development Board doubled the prices from the then $750 to $1500. The double increment transformed the country into a luxury gorilla tour destination compared to the neighboring Uganda and the Democratic Republic of Congo. The $1500 for a permit is also inclusive of park entrance fee, conservation fees, government taxes and the contribution to local communities. The cost excludes accommodation, meals, transport, driver guide allowance, drinking water, porters and extra activities. You are therefore reminded to plan ahead and save more money if you want a lifetime experience. Accommodation services are categorized into budget, midrange and luxury. Each category is charged differently depending on the budget and interest of the guests.
