Ua wehe ʻo Rwanda i kāna huakaʻi huakaʻi ma hope o ka hala ʻana o kekahi mau mahina, ke kuhi nei i ka poʻe mākaʻikaʻi gorilla mauna me ka ʻoki o ke kumukūʻai o nā ʻae no ka huli ʻana i nā gorillas mauna weliweli.

ʻO ka hopohopo hoʻokele waiwai a i ʻole kahi manaʻo kūpono a kuhihewa paha o ka palekana ma hope o kēia hana, akā ʻo ka ʻoiaʻiʻo olakino manaʻo ʻole e hōʻike ʻia a ma kahi o 2 mau pule i ka papahana.

Me nā huakaʻi mākaʻikaʻi honua, ua hoʻomaka hou ka mokuʻāina ʻo ʻApelika Waena i nā mokulele mokulele honua mai ka hapalua o ka pule i hala, i hōʻike ʻia e ka pāpāho Rwandan.

"Ke hoʻololi nei kā Rwanda ʻoihana hoʻokipa e hana i kahi palekana no nā mea huakaʻi a me nā mea hoʻokele e holomua i kēia mau manawa like ʻole," i ʻōlelo ʻia e ka Luna Hoʻokele Hoʻokele o Rwanda Development Board (RDB), ʻO Belise Kariza.

"Paipai mākou i nā poʻe huakaʻi huakaʻi a me nā mea ʻimi kūlohelohe e hoʻohana i kēia manawa kūpono kūikawā e lele i waho a ʻike i ka nani a me ka pīhoihoi a ko mākou ʻāina e hāʻawi ai", e ʻōlelo ana ʻo Kariza.

Me ka ʻāpana pilikino, hāʻawi ka RDB i nā pūʻulu hoʻokipa huikau āpau no Rwandans, nā kamaʻāina haole a me nā huakaʻi kūwaho.

Ua hoʻolālā ʻia kēia mau pūʻolo e hōʻike i ka leʻaleʻa a me nā hana leʻaleʻa o Rwanda.

Loaʻa nā makana hoʻolaha no nā mākaʻikaʻi kūloko, āpana a kūwaho hoʻi a hiki i Kēkēmapa 31 ma nā pāka aupuni o Rwanda, ua ʻōlelo ʻia e nā luna media ʻo Rwandan

Loaʻa nā ʻae Gorilla trekking i kēia manawa no US $ 200 no nā Rwandans a me nā kamaʻāina Community East Africa e noho ana ma Rwanda, US $ 500 no nā kamaʻāina haole, a me US $ 1,500 no nā mākaʻikaʻi honua.

Hāʻawi nā mea hoʻokipa huakaʻi a me nā uku hōkele i ka 15 keneta uku ho'ēmi no kēlā me kēia palapala ʻae i kūʻai ʻia, kahi e komo ai i kahi pō hoʻokahi e noho ai a me ka hana hoʻokipa.

Ma mua o kēia mahina, ua paʻi ka RDB i nā kulekele no ka wehe hou ʻana i nā hana hoʻokipa ma COVID-19. Ma lalo o nā alakaʻi, pono nā mākaʻikaʻi kūloko e kipa aku iā Nyungwe Forest a me nā Volcanoes National Parks e hoʻāʻo maikaʻi ʻole no COVID-19 ma loko o 48 mau hola ma mua o ke kipa ʻana.

Pono nā poʻe kipa e huakaʻi ana ma nā mokulele mokulele e hoʻowalewale i ka maʻi ma loko o 72 mau hola ma mua o ka hōʻea ʻana a pono e lawe i kahi hōʻike COVID-19 ʻelua ma mua o ka kipa ʻana i nā wahi mākaʻikaʻi. E hoʻokomo ʻia ke kumukūʻai o ka hoʻāʻo i nā pūʻulu huakaʻi.

Ua ʻōlelo ʻia e loaʻa nā pūʻolo kūikawā no nā hui, ʻohana a me nā ʻoihana ma nā huahana ʻē aʻe ma Volcanoes National Park, kahi home o nā gorillas mauna, a me Nyungwe National Park e hoʻokipa nei i kekahi o nā waoakua kahiko ma ʻApelika.

Ma hope o kekahi mau mahina o ka hoʻomaha ʻana o ka hana mākaʻikaʻi ma muli o COVID-19, ua hoʻopilikia maikaʻi ʻole ʻia ka ʻāpana huakaʻi a Rwanda a ke hoʻomau ʻia nei nā hana e hoʻōla hou ma o nā pūʻulu mākaʻikaʻi kūikawā no nā poʻe mākaʻikaʻi.
