After this enriching cultural experience, continue to Nyungwe Forest, arriving at your lodge surrounded by tranquil green hills. Enjoy dinner and rest as you prepare for the next day’s adventure.

Rise before sunrise for an unforgettable chimpanzee trekking experience. Led by expert rangers, you’ll step into the dense rainforest as the forest comes alive with birdsong and morning mist.

For adventure lovers, you can opt for a thrilling zipline experience through the lush mountains surrounding the park.
In the afternoon, unwind at the lodge, enjoy nature trails, or simply take in the pristine rainforest atmosphere.

Enjoy a relaxed morning before driving back to Kigali. Along the journey, take in the rolling hills, tea plantations, and vibrant rural landscapes that make Rwanda the “Land of a Thousand Hills.”
