Start the day with an exciting game drive through Akagera National Park, where you’ll have the chance to spot Africa’s iconic wildlife in their natural habitat. The park is known for its diverse ecosystems, from savannahs to wetlands. In the afternoon, enjoy a boat cruise on Lake Akagera, which offers an opportunity to see hippos, crocodiles, and a variety of bird species, such as water birds and kingfishers. Return to your lodge for an evening of relaxation.

After breakfast, transfer to Bwindi Impenetrable National Park in Uganda. The drive will take you through beautiful Ugandan landscapes, with breathtaking views of rolling hills and lush forests. Upon arrival at Bwindi, check into your lodge and take in the fresh mountain air, surrounded by the serene beauty of this UNESCO World Heritage Site.

The highlight of your safari begins today with gorilla trekking in Bwindi Impenetrable National Park, one of the few places in the world where you can see mountain gorillas in their natural habitat. Your experienced guide will lead you through the dense forest as you track these incredible creatures. Once you find the gorillas, you'll have the rare opportunity to spend time observing them in their natural environment.
In the afternoon, visit the Batwa community, an indigenous group of people who once lived in the forest. Here, you will learn about their traditional way of life, culture, and how they have adapted to the modern world after being relocated from the forest. This is a truly unique cultural experience that complements your wildlife adventure.

After breakfast, you will begin your journey back to Kigali, Rwanda, where you will have time to relax or do a short tour of the city before being transferred to the airport to catch your flight. This marks the end of your 5-day safari, filled with unforgettable memories of Rwanda’s wildlife and Uganda’s magnificent mountain gorillas.
