Rwanda offers excellent gorilla safari tours and treks. Embark on an adventure into “the land of a thousand hills” navigating through the misty Rwandan rain forests, rugged mountains, webs of swamps and lakes and towering volcanoes to experience a close encounter like no other, with one of the most highly endangered species on the planet, the Silverback Mountain Gorilla. Rwanda’s war torn reputation coupled with the darkness of the 1994 genocide, deemed the country devoid of natural assets and was left alone during this period, ironically it allowed the Government to focus on successfully protecting the endangered primates and now stands as a forerunner in adventure and eco-tourism.
