Any visitors who show signs of communicable illness will not be permitted to trek and will be refunded 50% of the permit cost. It is highly unusual to not see gorillas on your trek, but if you are in the unlucky 2% that don’t, you are also entitled to 50% of your permit fee refunded. The minimum age for visiting gorillas is 15 years old.
