Rwanda

The Land of a Thousand Hills — a spotless, safe, endlessly green country built around the endangered mountain gorilla.

Why Visit Rwanda

Rwanda has transformed itself into one of Africa's most compelling luxury safari destinations, anchored by Volcanoes National Park's gorilla and golden monkey families. Kigali itself is one of the cleanest, safest capital cities on the continent, and a world away from the country's difficult recent history.

Beyond the gorillas, Lake Kivu offers a genuinely relaxing counterpoint — think terraced hillsides, coffee plantations, and calm water — while Nyungwe Forest holds one of Africa's oldest rainforests and a canopy walk above the treeline.
