Rwanda offers exceptional nature circuits centered on observing endemic wildlife. Trips typically combine mountain gorilla tracking, hikes in the pristine Nyungwe forest and relaxation on the shores of Lake Kivu. Our private circuits or small group tours with a maximum of 10 people allow a respectful approach to these fragile ecosystems. Kigali, the modern capital, serves as a base for exploring the various parks. An average two-week duration provides the necessary time for acclimatization and wildlife observation without rushing.
