Tour Overview

This seven-day journey combines the best of Rwanda and Uganda, beginning and ending in Kigali while taking you deep into Uganda’s extraordinary wildlife landscapes. Experience Kigali and Rwanda’s cultural heritage, mountain gorilla trekking in Bwindi, Queen Elizabeth National Park, a Kazinga Channel boat cruise, and chimpanzee trekking in Kibale Forest. Uganda offers a particularly special gorilla experience. Bwindi is home to a large population of the world’s remaining mountain gorillas, with many habituated families spread across different trekking sectors. This journey gives you the opportunity to experience gorillas, chimpanzees and classic East African wildlife in one carefully designed adventure. Mountain gorilla trekking in Bwindi, chimpanzee trekking in Kibale, and gorilla tourism in Uganda are managed through regulated visitor numbers to protect wildlife and forest habitat. Tourism revenue supports conservation and communities around protected areas.
