Gorilla Trekking in Rwanda followed by safari & beach in Kenya. A quality itinerary which takes you to Volcanoes National...
Volcanoes National Park in Rwanda is home to 10 habituated groups of Mountain Gorillas. It is the most accessible and the most popular place to trek and encounter wild Mountain Gorillas.
Volcanoes National Park or as it is known locally – Parc National des Volcans, protects the Rwanda sector of the Virunga Mountains, a range of nine volcanoes- six extinct and three active – which straddle the borders of Rwanda, Uganda (Virungas National Park) and Congo (Mgahinga National Park).
The Volcanoes National Park is best known to the outside world as the place where Dian Fossey undertook her pioneering studies of mountain gorilla behaviour. Through the film of her life – “Gorillas in the Mist” – the plight for their survival was brought to many people’s attention.
To be able to track the mountain gorillas in the Virunga Mountains is one of the finest wildlife activities available in Africa. It is a highly exhilarating and emotional experience when you first set eyes on a wild mountain gorilla in their own natural environment. Nothing else is like it.
We had an amazing family holiday (2 kids aged 10) and the service and recommendations from S&B were fantastic. Local Masai Wanderings guide (Clement) was brilliant, knowledgeable and friendly and a real joy to travel with. Everything went very smoothly which was a testament to the organisation by S&B. Many thanks to Nick and the team, we will be back!
When you book a holiday like this you know it’s going to be early starts and early nights, and on the go Inbetween. It is the most rewarding experience, and the mix of luxury and tented accommodation makes you appreciate both, the consistent is the level of service from all staff, and their inherent friendliness was an added bonus.
I am just back from Tanzania and wanted to thank you very much for a fantastic itinerary. I loved all the accommodation choices made, all the connecting flights worked well and the guide was superb. I had a great time and let me know if you want to get some more feedback on any of the properties suggested by you and also Pongwe Beach which excellent.
We had the BEST time! I have been struggling to put into words how amazing our honeymoon actually was. By the time we got to Selous Riverside Safari Camp it was after lunch so we’d missed the afternoon trip but we went on the river safari late afternoon which was brilliant, could only be discribed as breathtaking for our first few sightings.
