Rwanda Primate Safari

A fantastic short tour of Rwanda, covering the highlights of this stunningly beautiful country. Flying into the capital Kigali, your knowledgeable local guide will meet you and escort you throughout your tour.
You will visit important historical sites from the 1994 Genocide, you will track wild chimpanzees in the Nyungwe Forest National Park, you will take a boat trip across Lake Kivu, and of course you will track one of the last remaining Mountain Gorilla groups in the world.
The unsung highlight of your trip will be the chance to meet and interact with the local communities that you will meet en route.
