    Day 1: Cross Goma Border – Transfer to Bukima Tented Camp

    Begin your adventure with an early morning wake-up to ensure a timely border crossing into the Democratic Republic of Congo by 10:00 AM through the Goma Grande Barrière border post. Once across, proceed to the Virunga National Park tourism office, located just opposite the passport control building, by 11:00 AM.

    At the office, you’ll complete registration and be issued with your Gorilla Trekking and Nyiragongo Hiking permits, which are required for participation in the upcoming activities.

    After check-in, you will be transferred by Virunga park transport to Bukima Tented Camp, located near the base of the gorilla trekking trailheads. Bukima is a peaceful and rustic camp nestled in the foothills of the Virunga Mountains, offering sweeping views of the volcanoes and the surrounding forest.

    Upon arrival, check into your tent and enjoy the serene natural surroundings. The rest of the afternoon is free for relaxation. You may explore the camp’s surroundings, enjoy birdwatching, or simply unwind and prepare for your upcoming gorilla trek.

    Day 2: Gorilla Trekking in Virunga – Transfer to Mikeno Lodge

    On the second day of your 4-Day Congo Tour, rise early and enjoy breakfast at Bukima Tented Camp before heading to the nearby Bukima Ranger Post for your gorilla trekking experience.

    At the ranger post, you’ll receive a comprehensive briefing from the Virunga park rangers about the rules and expectations of gorilla trekking. After the briefing, you’ll be placed into a small group and assigned a habituated gorilla family to track.

    The trek begins into the dense forest, guided by experienced rangers. The duration of the trek may vary—from 1 to 4 hours—depending on the location of the gorilla family. As you hike through the jungle, keep an eye out for other forest wildlife and the breathtaking scenery of the Virunga landscape.

    Once you locate the gorillas, you’ll spend a maximum of one hour in their presence—watching, photographing, and admiring their behavior in their natural habitat. It’s an unforgettable wildlife encounter.

    After the trek, return to Bukima Camp for a short rest, then transfer to Mikeno Lodge in Rumangabo for an afternoon of relaxation and optional activities.
