Rwanda & Uganda

1 itinerary · 0 open departures · 0 missions

Rwanda and Uganda are two landlocked East African nations that together form one of the world's premier destinations for primate trekking, most notably gorilla tracking in the Virunga Mountains and Bwindi Impenetrable Forest. Rwanda is also celebrated for Volcanoes National Park, the shores of Lake Kivu, and its remarkable cultural recovery and conservation story, while Uganda draws adventurers to the white-water rapids of the Nile at Jinja and the diverse wildlife of Queen Elizabeth National Park. Both countries offer rich birdwatching, chimpanzee habituation experiences, and a growing eco-tourism scene that attracts travellers seeking raw, off-the-beaten-path African wilderness.
