This 3-day safari takes travelers into Nyungwe Forest National Park, renowned as East Africa's largest lush montane forest and one of the continent's most biodiverse rainforests. The centerpiece of the trip is a guided chimpanzee trek, beginning early in the morning when the shy primates are most active. The itinerary also features Nyungwe's celebrated canopy walk — the only one of its kind in East Africa. The return journey to Kigali includes stops at notable Rwandan genocide memorial and cultural sites.
