Kigali, Rwanda’s vibrant and safe capital, blends modern city life with rich history. Explore bustling markets, stylish malls, and cafés, or visit the Kigali Genocide Memorial for a poignant insight into the country’s past. Nestled in lush hills, Kigali’s moderate high-altitude climate makes it a comfortable base for exploring Rwanda’s natural wonders.

  • Convenient access to popular tourist sites
  • Lively markets and modern shopping areas
  • Home to the Kigali Genocide Memorial

Live amongst the majestic mountain gorillas

Home to the critically-endangered mountain gorilla and a mountain chain of ancient volanoes, Volcanoes National Park is one of the most anticipated parts of visiting Rwanda and one of the main reasons many travellers come to the country in the first place. It features magnificent views, lush forests and several luxurious lodges.

Highlights

  • Gorilla trekking through the rainforests
  • Home to around half of the world's mountain gorilla population
  • Walk in the footsteps of world-renowned researcher Dian Fossey
  • One of the most biodiverse parks in Central Africa

The Authentic "Out of Africa" Experience

The Maasai Mara National Reserve is undoubtedly Kenya’s most notable and revered reserve. Its sheer size—extending to and eventually joining Tanzania’s Serengeti National Park—and stringent anti-poaching systems have made it famous for its remarkable populations of lion, cheetah, and leopard. It is also celebrated for being one of the stomping grounds of the Great Wildebeest Migration.

Highlights

  • Impressive population of wildlife
  • Perfect place to observe the annual Great Migration of wildebeest and zebra
  • Game-viewing opportunities either by foot, vehicle, or hot-air balloon
  • Large population of big cats

Home of Endless Plains and the Great Migration

Stretching itself across 1.5 million hectares of land, the Serengeti National Park is known for its impressive population of wildlife—most notably the Big 5. It is perhaps more renowned for being part of the stage on which the annual Great Migration plays out. Each year, over two million wildebeest, a fair number of gazelles, and small following of zebra seek better grazing areas by migrating south in the Serengeti, then west and north into the Maasai Mara before eventually returning.

Highlights

  • Where the Great Migration puts on part of its great show
  • It’s big, like 1.5 million hectares big
  • Offers some of the best game viewing in the country
  • Home to the Big 5, as well as a mighty big lion population
