Welcome to Rwanda!
Aptly named “land of a thousand hills,” this tiny, land-locked country is abundant with volcanoes, rainforests, lakes, and mesmerizing views around every corner. The best way to experience Rwanda’s unrivaled natural beauty is by getting outside and diving headfirst into its green mountains and rolling hillsides. Trek through the thick jungle of Volcanoes National Park to see mountain gorillas in their natural habitat, or hike to the top of one of the volcanic peaks in the Virunga Mountains. Head out on safari in Akagera National Park and search for the Big 5 animals by day and camp riverside at night. Or simply kick back and relax on the shores of Lake Kivu.
Beyond its natural offerings, Rwanda is quickly making a name for itself as one of the safest and cleanest destinations on the continent. Kigali, Rwanda’s capital set amongst verdant valleys, is emerging as a city shaped by innovation and entrepreneurship, with a rising art and culture scene reflective of Rwanda’s progressive young talent.
