Virunga Great Apes Circuit
The Virunga Great Apes Circuit is the signature journey of Virunga Ecotours and the most comprehensive way to experience the world of the great apes across the Virunga massif. This privately guided expedition connects the mist-covered volcanoes of northern Rwanda with the ancient forests of southwestern Uganda, combining two of Africa’s most extraordinary wildlife encounters: mountain gorilla trekking in Rwanda’s Volcanoes National Park and Uganda’s Bwindi Impenetrable National Park. Along the way, the journey is enriched by golden monkey tracking, immersive forest walks, and meaningful cultural encounters in the communities that share this remarkable ecosystem. More than a collection of activities, this is a seamless exploration of one of Africa’s most biologically and culturally significant landscapes.
