A Land of Remarkable Beauty & Conservation
Rwanda is the easiest and most refined place in Africa to come face to face with mountain gorillas. Compact, safe and beautifully organised, the ‘Land of a Thousand Hills’ pairs unforgettable gorilla trekking with a world-leading conservation story.
Beyond the Virungas, Akagera's Big Five savannah and Nyungwe's ancient rainforest make Rwanda a surprisingly complete short safari.
Gorilla trekking is possible year-round. The drier months (June–September and December–February) make for easier, firmer trails, while the wetter seasons bring lush forest and fewer trekkers.
