Experience Rwanda’s finest with a luxurious exploration of Volcano and Nyungwe National Parks, tracking diverse monkey species in lush volcanic mountain forests and absorbing the stunning views of Lake Kivu.
Discover the spectacular array of wildlife that call the Volcanoes National Park home during your stay at the luxury Gorilla’s Nest.
Begin your Rwanda adventure at the stylish One&Only Gorilla’s Nest, surrounded by a beautiful volcanic topography and eucalyptus groves. It is the closest lodge to the entrance of the Volcanoes National Park and therefore is the ultimate destination for gorilla treks through the historic rainforest. From here, you can track a family of endangered mountain gorillas, spot golden monkeys and over 300 different bird species trekking through the National Park. Gorilla’s Nest also offers guests the chance to visit a traditional Rwandan village to learn about local rural life, a wellness centre, infinity pool to unwind after your treks, and an open-air restaurant where guests can enjoy the surrounding volcanic landscape.
Spend three nights at Nyungwe House to discover the unique flora and fauna of the ‘Eden of Africa’.Â
Transfer by helicopter to the One&Only Nyungwe House in the ancient rainforest of the Nyungwe National Park, known as the ‘Eden of Africa’. This forest is home to chimpanzees, twelve other primate species like the colobus monkeys, 300 species of birds and 100 species of orchids. Embark on a forest walk tailored to your needs to track the habituated chimpanzees or spot a rare Grauer’s rush warbler whilst walking across the canopy walk boardwalk high in the trees. We recommend the Mount Bigugu trail that has impressive views over Lake Kivu – one of the Great African Lakes – from its position in the peaks. The stunning Nyungwe House is set within rolling fields of a working tea plantation, where guests can enjoy a guided tea estate or unwind from their treks with a private yoga and meditation class at the spa.
Explore the fascinating and history-rich city of Kigali before your flight home.
Stay overnight at the luxurious Kigali Serena Hotel to explore the culture, heritage and traditions of Rwanda before flying home the following day. Take the chance to visit the Genocide Museum to learn about Rwanda’s turbulent past and how it has become a huge success story today. Unwind after your trekking adventures spotting the chimpanzees of Nyungwe to the Gorillas of the Volcanoes at the in-house spa before dining at one of Kigali Serena’s three restaurants.
