Ultimate Luxury Rwanda Safaris
Known as the “land of a thousand hills,” Rwanda is a verdant nation. Here life erupts from the seams, and you have the impression that you might drop a seed and watch it grow, full of natural energy and vitality. One of the most amazing animals one could ever see, the mountain gorilla, calls this once-war-ravaged nation, which is made up of mountains, hills, jungles, winding highways, and rural settlements, home.
Although a safari to Rwanda is not typically considered a traditional Big Five safari, a plethora of wildlife and birds call its four national parks home. While trekking chimpanzees and colobus monkeys at Nyungwe and Gishwati will complete primate viewing, Akagera provides a strong big game encounter in a stunning lakeside environment. Rwanda is mostly visited for the once-in-a-lifetime gorilla trekking experience, but the welcoming people, fascinating communities, excellent hiking, and breathtaking scenery combine to provide a very varied experience.
Active, involved tourists who are prepared to pay for the unique opportunity to see the great apes in their natural environment go to Rwanda. Rwanda makes an excellent addition to a classic safari or can be visited alone for a shorter trip to Africa because of its convenient access to the rest of the continent.
Photographers will love a safari in Rwanda. You go away with amazing evidence of your time in the forests and photographs that have a mystical character due to the humidity and lighting of Rwanda.
To help communities and conservation, Rwanda has recently embraced a high-end tourism approach. Leading the way in introducing the luxury safari lodge concept to Rwanda was Bisate Lodge in Volcanoes National Park. Since then, a number of other really outstanding lodges have joined the group in other parks and the surrounding area.
With the price tag to match, Rwanda provides top-notch service and lodging. Having said that, it’s crucial to remember that you’ll also be supporting major conservation initiatives even if you may be paying a premium for stunning lodges and exclusive, one-of-a-kind experiences at this location.

Ellen DeGeneres Campus
Many years ago, my wife Ellen related to me the time she found a copy of National Geographic featuring Dian Fossey on the cover while she was a little girl living in New Orleans, Louisiana. Seeing that courageous American woman, a scientist, pitch a tent in the Rwandan jungle to save a species on the verge of extinction was a life-changing experience for Ellen. It altered her perspective on the world and her place in it. Ellen was inspired to follow in Dian’s footsteps after hearing about the groundbreaking work of the dedicated scientist she admired.
The Land of a Thousand Hills
Kigali, the capital of Rwanda, was our destination after a 24-hour bus ride. At first, the idea that the “Capital City” could be so tiny seemed absurd. However, considering that the total country is just roughly 26,330km2, this shouldn’t come as too much of a surprise. In all my travels, I have never seen a city as clean as this one. There are flowerbeds lining the wide, freshly paved streets. The city’s streets have never been cleaner.
Kayaking on Lake Kivu

The local fisherman set out at sundown in perfect harmony, their stirring song echoing across the sea, in order to return the next morning with their haul. With its undulating shoreline and abundance of sandy beaches and little islands to explore, the lake is clean and transparent. Paddling is risk-free because there are no crocodiles or hippos.
