Experience the best of East Africa on this 10-day Uganda Rwanda safari, a journey that blends Rwanda’s mountain gorillas, Uganda’s untamed wilderness, and unforgettable cultural encounters. From Kigali’s poignant history to the misty forests of Bwindi, this adventure is a celebration of wildlife, luxury, and human resilience.
Begin in Rwanda’s vibrant capital, Kigali, where you’ll visit the Genocide Memorial and master the art of Rwandan coffee. Then, journey to Volcanoes National Park, trekking through emerald forests to meet majestic mountain gorillas—an encounter immortalized in Gorillas in the Mist. Watch golden monkeys leap through bamboo thickets and immerse yourself in local traditions at Iby’iwacu Cultural Village.
Cross into Uganda to explore Bwindi Impenetrable Forest, home to half the world’s endangered mountain gorillas. Trek through dense foliage to observe these gentle giants or join community projects like “Ride for Women” to connect with local life. Continue to Queen Elizabeth National Park, where savannahs teem with lions, elephants, and rare tree-climbing lions. Glide along the Kazinga Channel, spotting hippos and crocodiles, and venture into Kyambura Gorge’s primate-rich forests.
Your Uganda Rwanda safari culminates in Kibale Forest, where chimpanzees swing through ancient trees, and the Bigodi Wetlands dazzle birdwatchers. Return to Entebbe via the equator, savoring a farewell lunch by Lake Victoria’s shimmering shores.
Stay in 5* lodges like Amakoro Songa Lodge and Mweya Safari Camp, where luxury meets wilderness.
