Day 2: Tracking Lowland Gorilla tracking in Kahuzi Biega South Kivu
Have an early morning breakfast and after drive to Kahuzi Beiga National Park in order to track the lowland gorillas, this drive from the Orchid safari Lodge is about 1 hour to the park headquarters for this true safari experience of lowland gorilla trekking in the Democratic Republic of Congo. In the briefing, the clients are entertained by the cultural dance as well as hot tea that is offered by the park. Tracking these lowland gorillas is very amazing since the lowland Gorillas differ from the mountain gorillas. The lowland gorillas stay in bigger families as compared to the mountain gorillas; you will actually not regret the safari efforts, once you meet the amazing Gorillas! After tracking these gorillas, you will return to the hotel for dinner and overnight.

Early in the morning, travel back to Kigali, the capital of Rwanda.
End of the Trip
Itinerary
You will be met by airport representatives who will transfer you to Male before going to the waterfront to meet our boat captain and crew. Once settled into our cabins, we will depart. Cruise south for 2-3 hours through the Vaadhoo Canal to a nearby island in South Malé Atoll; probably Guraidhoo, a small inhabited island where the plan is to moor in (or just outside) the small harbour for the first night on board.
