Rwanda Luxury Safari and Vacations
Experience the ultimate Rwanda Safaris with unparalleled wildlife encounters and breathtaking landscapes. Discover the majestic mountain gorillas, explore lush rainforests, and enjoy thrilling game drives in one of Africa’s most unique safari destinations.
In Rwanda’s Volcanoes National Park, a family of mountain gorillas, led by a silverback, peacefully munches on leaves just meters away, offering a rare and intimate wildlife encounter. As their last remaining forest habitat, visiting these majestic creatures is made possible by the return of peace to the country. This extraordinary experience is expertly crafted by specialists like Enchanting Travels, who are dedicated to curating unforgettable Rwanda Safaris itineraries. Expert trackers guide visitors on hikes into the mountains, allowing them to witness gorilla families in their natural environment. Additionally, visitors can explore famous walking trails in the park, including one leading to the tomb of renowned gorilla researcher Dian Fossey, immortalized in the Hollywood movie “Gorillas in the Mist.”
Despite Rwanda’s tragic history of civil war and genocide, the country has emerged with resilience. In the capital city of Kigali, a visit to the Kigali Genocide Memorial Center museum provides essential insight into the nation’s past. Beyond gorilla trekking, Rwanda’s Nyungwe Forest National Park, located just two hours south of Kigali, is home to at least 13 other primate species. A highlight of this park is the 197-foot-high canopy walk, offering visitors a thrilling stroll through the lush mountain forest amidst black-and-white Angola colobus monkeys, baboons, mangabeys, and vervet monkeys. These captivating creatures are sure to evoke laughter and wonder as they engage with visitors in their natural habitat.
