This morning it's an early start as you head out into the mists on the trail of your gorilla group. You, along with a maximum of eight other trekkers, will walk to your gorilla group HQ where you will receive a detailed briefing on what to expect and some dos and dont's when seeing the gorillas.Gorrilas cover huge areas every day so your walk can last as little as one hour or as much as eight - it all depends on where the gorilla group have decided to go! However, when you do finally encounter your group, you will find that the trek has been worth all the effort. After one hour of quiet observation you will say goodbye to the group and set off on the return trek back to the lodge.Back at the lodge you can enjoy a massage and a good meal before retiring to bed to rest your weary limbs.
