How we travel Rwanda

Plan this country

Why visit

Volcanoes National Park, golden monkeys, Akagera savannah and Kigali as a considered city — compact, polished, and serious about the forest hour.

Best time

June to September and December to February are favoured for trekking. Rwanda is small; the itinerary should use that, not pretend it is Kenya.

Safari styles

Gorilla trekking, golden monkeys, Akagera game drives, Nyungwe chimpanzees and canopy walks, championship golf in Kigali when it belongs.

Ideal duration

Four to eight nights is enough for gorillas plus one other landscape. Add Nyungwe only with honest flying or driving days.

Best for

Travellers who want primates with excellent logistics, and those combining Rwanda with Uganda or Tanzania.
