The encounter with the gorillas lasts one hour and focuses on observing these endangered mountain primates in their natural habitat. The Virunga Mountains provide the backdrop for this activity, which requires a permit that is not included. Wilderness Sabyinyo offers a base with amenities such as complimentary Wi-Fi, lounge areas, and hot water facilities for guests returning from the trek.
