Enjoyed the trip, African resident rates for gorilla permit only open 72hrs before trek day
Serenity adventure safaris的点评
点评:I enjoyed traveling with Jon-Petit. Jon and Sammy have an amazing knowledge of local facts and context for Rwanda. The conversation alone was worth the trip. I really enjoyed the Kigali city tour (included the Genocide memorial), the golden money trek and the Musanze caves upcountry. They handled accomodations as part of the package and were both very helpful and a pleasure to work with.
Gorilla trekking in Rwanda was supposed to be the culmination of a Kenya, Uganda and Rwanda birthday trip for me. Even though we started planning weeks in advance, unfortunately I didn't get to see gorillas. The portal only allows purchase of gorilla trekking permits for African residents 72hours before the day and all the permits were gone by the time the portal opened. What was surprising was that on the day we were supposed to do the gorilla trek (while trying to pay for the caves), it sounded like it was possible to get an additional slot for a Rwandan resident who was enquiring. Not Serenity's fault at all but something to bear in mind planning gorilla trekking, especially during high season (from July).
翻译:我喜欢和 Jon-Petit 一起旅行。Jon 和 Sammy 对卢旺达当地情况和背景了如指掌。光是这次谈话就值得一游。我真的很喜欢基加利城市之旅(包括种族灭绝纪念馆)、金币之旅和内陆的 Musanze 洞穴。他们负责安排住宿,这也是套餐的一部分,他们都非常乐于助人,合作起来很愉快。
卢旺达的大猩猩徒步旅行本应是我肯尼亚、乌干达和卢旺达生日之旅的高潮。尽管我们提前几周就开始计划了,但不幸的是我没有看到大猩猩。门户网站只允许非洲居民在旅行前 72 小时购买大猩猩徒步旅行许可证,门户网站开放时所有许可证都已售罄。令人惊讶的是,在我们本该进行大猩猩徒步旅行的那天(同时试图支付洞穴费用),听起来可以为正在询问的卢旺达居民获得额外的名额。这完全不是 Serenity 的错,但在计划进行大猩猩徒步旅行时要记住这一点,尤其是在旺季(从 7 月开始)。
