Rwanda's Natural History Highlights - in Depth

Tailor Made Sample Itinerary No.1

Rwanda Wildlife TourThe impressive diversity of Rwanda’s habitats and wildlife is reflected in this all-embracing Rwanda wildlife tour. The plains animals of Akagera are followed by the multitude of primates of Nyungwe Forest; the placid shores of Lake Kivu provide a gentle interlude before the tour highlight - two days of gorilla trekking in the Volcanoes National Park.  So many natural history surprises for such a small destination.

An African Primates Extravaganza

An ideal Africa primate safari for ape aficionados featuring the very best encounters on offer in Rwanda and Tanzania, if not all Africa.  Begin with two unforgettable days gorilla (and possibly golden monkey) trekking, then have the chance to view an incredible 13 species of primates including chimpanzees. Encounter Zanzibar’s endemic Kirk’s red colobus before spending three remarkable days with the habituated chimpanzees made famous by Jane Goodall, as well as red tail and blue monkeys, olive baboons and red colobus. More fun than a barrel full of monkeys, one might say.  Find out more...

Important Notes

IMPORTANT NOTE: All clients must note the following points - bookings will only be accepted on condition that these points are understood, accepted and adhered to:
1) The security situation can change, as it can in most African countries.
2) The gorillas’ health is strictly protected - no-one with a visible cold or other transmissible disease is allowed to visit them. Guides check before entering the park that everyone appears healthy, so entry cannot be guaranteed: if someone is obviously ill, or has a cold, he or she will be turned away with no refund given.
3) It can be a difficult climb to reach the gorillas, and the descent may be hard. Anyone who is fit, active and well with
no mobility problems should manage. Although guides and porters are on hand to assist, anyone who appears unable to manage the climb may have to turn back early – in any dispute, the decision of the guide is final.
