Primates and Jungles: Adventurous Gorilla Trekking in Rwanda
10 Days in Rwanda
What You Can Look Forward To
It's a jungle out there in Rwanda! The best kind of jungle, with the endangered mountain gorillas hiding away in its lush greenery. One of the most exclusive experience is to be in the presence of these rare and magnificent creatures.
Join us in celebration of World Rhino Day as we appreciate Rwanda and its wildlife residents for a once-in-a-lifetime conservation adventure. You will trek through the forests in Volcanoes National Park to get a glimpse of the gorillas and safari in wildlife-rich Akagera National Park. The cherry on top? It's only with Out2Africa that you get the incredible opportunity to join the anti-poaching unit to learn about and directly impact the eastern black rhino.
1 Night in Kigali
Why You'll Love it
You might be surprised to hear that Rwanda's capital city is one of the most secure cities on the African continent. It's also easy on the eyes! With lush hills, a bustling city centre, fascinating local culture and history, it's the perfect first stop on your Rwanda itinerary.
Kigali is conveniently located a stone throw away from all the well-known tourist attractions. It's also easy to fly here as the city is home to the Kigali International Airport.
4 Nights in Akagera National Park
Why You'll Love it
Akagera National Park has a bit of a rags-to-riches story. About 20 years ago, it was almost destroyed entirely. However, today it is famous as Africa's largest protected wetland and a thriving wildlife-packed national park. Here you can witness some of the most extraordinary wildlife, including the Big 5. In fact, Akagera is the only Big 5 park in Rwanda. It is also conveniently located a mere 2-hour drive from the country's capital, Kigali.
If you're an avid wildlife or bird enthusiast, Akagera will enthral you. By visiting the park, you also get to give back to the local community and play a role in the park's success story.
3 Nights in Volcanoes National Park
Why You'll Love it
Have you watched Gorillas in the Mist? Well, Volcanoes National Park is the very setting where it was filmed. Home to some of the last remaining mountain gorilla primates, venturing into this jungle is a privilege few get to experience. It is also the oldest park in Africa, with incredible dense vegetation. You can also look forward to seeing golden monkeys swing from tree to tree, as well as over 180 bird species.
Step into the Volcanoes National Park and Diane Fossey's shoes as you explore the mystery of this spectacular forest.
