Home FAQ Cost & budget

How much does a private Rwanda safari cost?

Direct answer

Private Rwanda safaris with your own 4×4 and guide start around USD 500–800 per person per day mid-range and USD 1,200–2,000+ at luxury. A 4-day private gorilla-and-Akagera itinerary runs roughly USD 3,800–6,500 mid-range and USD 9,000–14,000 luxury per person sharing, including permits, lodges, and transfers. Solo travellers pay a 20–40% single supplement; groups of four or more reduce per-person vehicle costs.

Overview

Uganda combines mountain gorilla trekking, classic savannah game viewing, chimpanzee tracking, birding, and cultural experiences in a compact circuit. The right answer depends on your dates, fitness, budget, and whether you travel with a licensed operator who handles permits, road logistics, and park regulations.
