Rwanda Gorilla Safari

Extend your Safari stay to Rwanda's Volcano National Park. Best known as a sanctuary for the region’s rare mountain gorillas, visitors flock here to experience a face to face encounter with these intriguing creatures.
The park is set high on the jungle-covered slopes of the volcanic Virunga Mountains. Highly regulated treks through the reserve allow visitors to spend an hour at a time with these incredible primates in their natural habitat.
While the gorilla’s are without a doubt the main drawcard, visitors can also look forward to exploring a network of scenic hiking trails, visiting the tomb of the world-famous Dian Fossey and the Karisoke Research Centre, and enjoying a beautiful day hike to the crater lake on Mount Bisoke.
