The History of Rwanda Discounted Low season gorilla permits/ discounted Rwanda gorilla permits

The business or the idea Rwanda discounted gorilla permits was established in 2017 after the Rwanda Development Board announced an increase in the Rwanda gorilla trekking permit from USD750-USD1500 per permit. The increment of Gorilla prices in Rwanda was done to market Rwanda as the luxurious tourism destination in the whole of Africa and indeed this venture is yielding results as investors have been called upon to invest heavily in lodges and huge conference centers and as I talk right now Rwanda is one of the African countries with the many luxury lodges as other are being introduced. Such success has been attributed to the presence of the Rwanda air which has carried luxury travelers or tourists to Rwandan soil. To keep its market base and keep on attracting the gorilla trekkers in Volcanoes national park, after it increased the normal price of a gorilla trekking permit, Rwanda still announced a 30% discount for the same increased price making it USD1050 for the visitors that would trek gorillas in November and May.

It should be remembered that the idea of discounted gorilla permits was first introduced by Uganda wildlife Authority where visitors who would visit Uganda during the low season would pay only $450 per person per trek bit after the new development in Rwanda, this offer in Uganda was scrapped off and Uganda maintained its stand of USD700 per person per trek for visitors visiting Uganda to see gorillas in all seasons. Much as Rwanda offered these discounted gorilla permits during the low season,  still, one must full fill or benefit from this offer with the strings attached as we have seen earlier.  Moreover, the discounted price for gorilla permits in Rwanda at USD1050 cannot match the normal gorilla trekking for Uganda at $700 and that of the Democratic Republic of Congo at $400 per person per trek.  And of this difference in the price, we have seen tourists flying to Kigali international airport and then connect to Uganda’s Bwindi impenetrable forest National Park or Mgahinga National Park for gorilla trekking via Katuna and Cyanika border points.
