1 Day Rwanda Golden Monkey Tracking Tour

Golden monkeys tracking is a thrilling experience that gives an impressive happenstance with these beautiful species of monkeys known as the Golden monkeys, endangered species.

The endangered golden monkey enjoys a territory of highland forests, especially bamboo, living in groups of up to 80 individuals. A handful of troops in Volcanoes National Park have been habituated and can be tracked in a similar way to the gorillas.

The monkeys are playful and inquisitive and often spend their time leaping from bamboo branches or frolicking on the forest floor towards the base of the volcanoes and have overcome their initial shyness to accept their daily visit by researchers and tourists.

At Gorilla Guardians Village, a cultural center staffed almost entirely by former poachers becomes gorilla guardians. Visitors get to experience Rwandan village life by grinding seeds, firing bows and arrows, taking part in a traditional Intore dance and even partaking in the wedding ceremony.
