Why Rwanda?

Rwanda has the largest remaining single tract of montane forest anywhere in East and Central Africa. It boasts three national parks including Volcanoes NP, home to the mountain gorillas; arguably one of the top animal sighting privileges in the world.

Our Take

icon

Although never forgotten, the tiny landlocked country of Rwanda has come a long way since the genocide-ridden days of the 1990s. Today the Rwandans are a united nation, full of open smiles and genuine warmth, and are keen to show their gem of a country to anyone who’s thinking of a Rwanda safari.

And with vast tracts of unspoilt, luscious vegetation, spectacular sightings of iconic mountain gorillas in the mist, dense jungle forest and a healthy dose of culture and promise in Kigali, there’s plenty to show off and a lot more than first meets the eye.
