Rwanda is Africa's most surprising destination — compact, pristine, and home to experiences found nowhere else on Earth. This five-day luxury journey brings you face to face with endangered mountain gorillas in the mist-shrouded bamboo forests of Volcanoes National Park, where fewer than 1,000 individuals survive. Trek with expert trackers who have followed these families for decades, then spend one life-changing hour in the presence of silverbacks, mothers with infants, and playful juveniles. Add the rare golden monkey trek — a flash of orange fur leaping through bamboo — and the vertigo-inducing canopy walkway at Nyungwe Forest, suspended 50 metres above ancient montane rainforest. Stay at Bisate Lodge, a conservation-driven retreat with volcano-view rooms designed to echo traditional Rwandan royal architecture, and One&Only Gorilla's Nest, where luxury villas are tucked into a eucalyptus plantation at the base of the Virunga volcanoes. Rwanda's 'Land of a Thousand Hills' delivers extraordinary landscapes between every experience.
Arrive at Kigali International Airport. Visit the Kigali Genocide Memorial — a powerful experience that contextualises Rwanda's extraordinary rebirth. Lunch at a rooftop restaurant overlooking the city's immaculate streets and red-tile rooftops. Transfer northwest through terraced hillsides to Volcanoes National Park. Check into Bisate Lodge, a striking property where thatched villas echo traditional Rwandan royal architecture, each with floor-to-ceiling windows framing the Virunga volcanoes. Dinner featuring Rwandan-inspired cuisine.
