Why Visit Rwanda?

National parks

The vast savannah of Akagera is home to plentiful game, whilst the Nyungwe Forest National Park is the country’s most biodiverse area, with one of the oldest rainforests on the continent, and the best place for tracking primates. For sheer beauty, Volcanoes National Park is hard to beat and offers very rewarding trekking.

Mountain Gorillas

With only 1000 remaining in the wild, these are a critically endangered species – the only place to see them here is in Volcanoes National Park. And only then with a certified guide and a permit – which helps fund essential conservation work. There are 10 families in the park, each with between 10 and 30 members.

Kigali

The capital of Rwanda is fast becoming one of the continent’s most vibrant cities. Built in rolling hills, it has a thriving café culture and art scene, and is full of parks and gardens. It’s the perfect gateway for exploring this magical part of Africa.

Birdwatching

Rwanda is one of the world’s top producers, with thousands of micro farms concentrating on just a few hundred very high quality trees. The growing conditions are perfect (soil, altitude and rainfall), resulting in a bean that is fruity and slightly floral.

Lakes

Rwanda is home to Africa’s sixth largest lake – Kivu – part of the Great Rift Valley. Once a colonial destination to enjoy the cool of the mountains, it’s now the perfect place to relax after gorilla trekking. The surrounding landscapes are breathtakingly beautiful, the emerald waters make for ideal kayaking, and the sandy shoreline is dotted with friendly villages. It’s a holiday in its own right.
