Experience Rwanda Gorilla Trekking, Big 5 & Big Cats safari (Exclusively Private)

About this trip

Four days, one private itinerary: mountain gorillas in the Volcanoes National Park, then a shift to open savannah for Big Five and big cat sightings in Akagera. It's a compact way to see two very different sides of Rwanda without sharing your vehicle or guide with anyone else.

Alongside the wildlife, there's time for the Genocide Memorial Centre in Kigali, a sobering counterpoint to the trekking and game drives that gives real context to the country you're travelling through.

With unlimited game drives built in and a private setup throughout, the pace is yours to shape, though four days means the itinerary moves quickly between forest, park and city.

What you'll do

  • Trek through Volcanoes National Park to track mountain gorillas
  • Unlimited game drives across Akagera National Park
  • Look out for Big Five and big cat species in Akagera
  • Boat ride on Lake Ihema
  • Visit the Genocide Memorial Centre in Kigali
Good to know
  • Private trip throughout — just your own group, guide and vehicle
  • Four days covers gorilla trekking, a separate national park and a city visit, so the pace is brisk
  • Gorilla trekking involves a guided hike through forest terrain
