If you have only a few short days to explore Rwanda, this trip encapsulates the spirit of this breathtaking country.

Whisking you out of the capital you’ll travel north into the lush highlands to take in the border town of Musanze.

Spend a day tracking some of the world’s only mountain gorillas; wake up on the shores of Lake Kivu – one of the Great Lakes of Africa – and make a restorative trip across its waters; and finally head back to Kigali along one of the most scenic routes in the country.
