AfricaRwanda
Rwanda offers one of the world's most powerful wildlife encounters in the forests of Volcanoes National Park.
But a journey here extends beyond the trek itself.
The country's landscapes, conservation story, warm hospitality and exceptional lodges create an experience that can feel intimate, considered and deeply meaningful.
Best Suited To
Couples, honeymooners, conservation-minded travellers, photographers and anyone seeking a truly rare wildlife encounter.
Volcanoes
The Bisate Concession comprises 42 hectares (103 acres); situated on the lower slopes of Bisoke Volcano adjacent to the Volcanoes National Park. Immediately outside the rock wall that marks the park boundary lies densely cultivated farmland (potatoes, wheat, pyrethrum) taking advantage of the rich volcanic soil. This is one of the very best places to trek and view mountain gorillas.
Akagera
The 100 000-hectare Akagera National Park is situated in eastern Rwanda, bordering Tanzania, and has been managed by African Parks in partnership with the Rwanda Development Board since 2010. It comprises some of the most scenic savannah in East Africa – open plains, woodlands, lakes, swamp, and grassy low mountains. Intimate Magashi Camp is set on the shores of Lake Rwanyakazinga – home to one of Africa’s highest hippo densities, some very large crocodiles, and (hidden within its wetlands) the secretive sitatunga and shoebill stork.
