This remarkable Rwanda 6-day adventure in Rwanda offers the opportunity to explore this land of a thousand hills with incredible wildlife encounters. You will also visit the Volcanoes National Park in search of endangered mountain gorillas with expert local rangers. You’ll also have an opportunity to explore Kigali and its colorful markets.
Overview
This tour takes you to the Akagera National Park which is Central Africa’s largest protected wetland and the last remaining refuge for savannah-adapted species in Rwanda. It is again a Big Five destination after the recent reintroductions of lion and black rhino. Other animals include elephant, buffalo, giraffe and hippo. In terms of pure wildlife viewing, Akagera can’t quite compete with the more famous parks in Kenya and Tanzania. However, the park is very scenic and the birdlife is particularly rewarding. You will also visit the Volcanoes National Park in search of endangered mountain gorillas with expert local rangers. If time permits you’ll also have an opportunity to explore Kigali and its colorful markets.
