Incredible, I went in with Monroe Kelly and he led us to the lost city of Zinge, it was amazing. We were going to pick up everything but these ugly gorillas showed up and started slaughtering all of us. My good friend Kahaaga was massacred and all I could do was look at the sad face on Monroe. Lucky a former CIA agent Ms. Ross was there to save us with a makeshift laser she found.

If you are still wondering whether Virunga in the DRC is the best place to see the mountain gorillas - stop. It is THE place to first meet them. It is THE place where you can meet people who are risking their lifes everyday to make this world a better place, not only for the animals, but also for the local population. Virunga staff has the security under 100% control. Mikeno lodge is first class, Senkwekwe orphanage is now open for visitors again. I would definitely come back.

What an overwhelming experience - Virunga is a piece of heaven on earth! This park is rich in natural resources, the people are so warm and friendly. I feel very attached and hopeful about returning soon. It exceeded all my expectations.

One of the most beautiful places on earth. The people, the landscape and the views will cling to you eyes and heart drawing you back time and again.

The trek up Nyiragongo is tough but worth every grueling step. The gorillas plentiful, wild and heart stompingly close and real.

And then there is the Kibumba Eco Lodge where the staff, accommodations, views and food will please even the most sophisticated adventurer. Don’t miss this place. Just don’t.

This is a beautiful park located in eastern DRC. For the information of travellers, the park isn’t open due to security concerns. There had been cases of kidnapping for foreign nationals previously in the park. Moreover , you will find only MONUSCO and rangers in the park . Though , wildlife in the park in amazing. We pray that government of DRC take measures to open this park soon for the wildlife lovers.

ICCN(rangers) facilitate movement in the park. So one needs to create good contacts with
