Discover Rwanda: The Land of a Thousand Hills with Virgin Africa Safaris

Rwanda, known as the "Land of a Thousand Hills," is a breathtaking destination of stunning landscapes, rich wildlife, and deep cultural heritage. At Virgin Africa Safaris, we invite you to explore Rwanda’s hidden gems, from its misty volcanoes and serene lakes to its vibrant cities and welcoming people. Whether you’re seeking adventure, wildlife encounters, or cultural immersion, Rwanda offers an unforgettable experience for every traveler.

Gorilla Trekking in Volcanoes National Park

Rwanda is world-renowned for its mountain gorillas, and tracking these majestic creatures in Volcanoes National Park is a once-in-a-lifetime experience. As one of the most protected and carefully managed gorilla habitats, this park provides intimate encounters with gorilla families in their lush, natural environment. Virgin Africa Safaris will guide you through this unforgettable trek, where you can connect with nature in its purest form.

Unmatched Wildlife and Scenery

Beyond gorillas, Rwanda boasts an array of wildlife across its national parks. Akagera National Park, a haven for the Big Five (lion, leopard, elephant, rhino, and buffalo), offers thrilling safari experiences amidst savannahs and wetlands. Meanwhile, Nyungwe Forest National Park is home to a rich diversity of primates, including chimpanzees, as well as hundreds of bird species. With Virgin Africa Safaris, you can explore Rwanda’s biodiversity while soaking in the country’s awe-inspiring landscapes.

Cultural Encounters and Historical Exploration

Rwanda’s rich history and culture are deeply woven into its identity. Kigali, the capital city, offers a harmonious blend of modernity and tradition, with vibrant markets, museums, and restaurants. A visit to the Kigali Genocide Memorial provides insight into the resilience and unity of the Rwandan people, a key part of understanding the country’s journey toward peace and development. Virgin Africa Safaris ensures that your Rwandan adventure includes authentic cultural experiences, from meeting local communities to exploring traditional arts and crafts.
