FAQs
Yes, one golden monkey trekking permit per person is included. Permits are issued by the Rwanda Development Board and are confirmed before the booking is final.
Usually one to three hours on gentler slopes through bamboo forest, easier than gorilla trekking. Expect mud, so wear boots and bring a rain jacket.
At the Volcanoes National Park headquarters in Kinigi, about two and a half hours by road from Kigali. Transfers can be added.
