Introduction

Your Rwandan journey begins with a warm meet and assist at Kigali International Airport, followed by a private transfer to the elegant Governor’s Residence, a charming boutique retreat tucked into one of the city’s leafy neighborhoods. With your own private vehicle and guide throughout, you’ll enjoy seamless travel and a deeply personalized experience.

From Kigali, travel overland to Akagera National Park, a beautifully restored savannah reserve of rolling plains, lakes, and abundant wildlife. Three nights at Ruzizi Tented Lodge place you on the shores of Lake Ihema, where game drives and boat safaris offer the chance to see elephant, lion, giraffe, and prolific birdlife. Returning briefly to Kigali, you then journey onward to the mist-covered hills near Volcanoes National Park for three nights at Virunga Lodge. Here, dramatic views set the stage for unforgettable gorilla trekking and a Golden Monkey trek—intimate encounters that are both humbling and exhilarating. This itinerary blends wildlife, conservation, and Rwanda’s remarkable landscapes into one seamless, enriching adventure.
