Rwanda is an amazing place to visit, home to four immaculate national parks, 750 different bird species, stunning mountains, mountain gorillas, and all five of the big five game species. Our carefully designed Rwanda tours and wildlife safaris will provide you with the greatest possible experience in this stunning country of a thousand hills.
Rwanda should be a must-visit travel location for a thousand reasons, one of which is the mountain gorilla trekking experience. It’s a fantastic place to go to view mountain gorillas in their natural environment. A sizeable portion of the 1063 mountain gorillas that remain in the world are kept in Rwanda’s Volcanoes National Park’s bamboo woods. Trekking to observe mountain gorillas offers an incredible opportunity to witness one of nature’s most captivating spectacles. As the closest living relatives of humans, they share over 95% of their genetic makeup with us.
Only the Volcanoes National Park in the Ruhengeri area of Rwanda is home to mountain gorilla treks, and only these four parks contain mountain gorillas. In Ruhengeri, Rwanda, permits for gorilla trekking run about $1500 USD per person. The best times to undertake this journey are in the dry months of June through September or December through February.
In addition to mountain gorillas, Rwanda is home to chimpanzees and other primates, making it one of the primate hotspots in East Africa. This makes it a special place for thrilling chimpanzee tracking adventures. The best locations in Rwanda for monkey trekking are Nyungwe Forest National Park and Gishwati-Mukura National Park. A chimpanzee tour in any of these two protected areas may offer the opportunity to see additional primates, including black and white colobus monkeys, bush babies, pottos, L’Hoest monkeys, vervet monkeys, blue monkeys, red-tailed monkeys, and red colobus monkeys.
Rwanda is a primate and large game haven in East Africa that provides tourists with an amazing safari experience. The only savanna park in this landlocked nation where game drives are allowed is Akagera National Park. The park is home to approximately 500 different species of birds, as well as antelope families including the roan antelopes, warthogs, and Masai giraffes, in addition to large game species like buffaloes, rhinos, elephants, leopards, and lions.
