The best tours in Rwanda combine gorilla trekking in Volcanoes National Park with a Big Five safari in Akagera National Park, often adding Nyungwe Forest chimpanzee trekking or a Kigali city tour. Rwanda is compact enough that a 5-7 day tour comfortably covers gorillas, wildlife, forest and culture in one trip.
Rwanda tours range from around $250/day for Akagera safaris and Nyungwe forest trips, to $1,700-$2,000 for a 1-day gorilla trek (shared vehicle $1,700, private $1,850, full luxury $2,000, all including the $1,500 RDB permit), up to $11,200+ for a 7-day luxury safari combining gorillas, Big Five, chimpanzees and Lake Kivu.
Our Rwanda tour packages include a private 4x4 Land Cruiser with driver-guide, an RDB-certified guide, park entrance fees, and (where applicable) your gorilla trekking permit. Multi-day packages also include accommodation and meals. Every quote we send is fully itemized.
A single gorilla trek can be done in one day from Kigali. Most travelers spend 3-5 days to combine gorilla trekking with Akagera or Lake Kivu, while our 7-day grand safari covers gorillas, chimpanzees, Big Five and Lake Kivu in one itinerary.
