Destination
Rwanda
Known as the "Land of a Thousand Hills" and home to half of the world's Mountain Gorillas, Rwanda stands as a shining example of conservation success.
Gorilla Habitat
Nothing can truly prepare you for the remarkable experience of coming face-to-face with a mountain gorilla in its natural habitat. Unlike traditional safaris, "gorilla trekking" entails hiking on foot through dense jungle on a steep mountainside. Once the gorilla family is located, you can quietly sit among them, observing their daily activities with a sense of awe.
East African Paradise
Additional activities in Rwanda include more traditional safaris, such as tracking lions and leopards in Akagera National Park or trekking with a recently habituated family of chimpanzees in the Nyungwe forest. Situated in East Africa, Rwanda is ideally positioned for combination with a safari in Kenya or Tanzania.
