Rwanda | Top Recommendations



Rwanda, also known as "the land of a thousand hills" or "the Switzerland of Africa" is situated in East-central Africa.


Rwanda is a beautiful country with stunning scenery, green hills, lakes and mountains. It is home to the mountain gorillas and one of the few places in the world where you can go for gorilla and chimpanzee tracking.


Rwanda's warm, friendly people offer unique experiences in one of the most remarkable countries in the world.


Over the last 30 years Rwanda has become one of the most innovative, cleanest and safest countries in all of Africa. Previously tarnished by profound tragedy, Rwanda's elegant capital has been reinventing itself for a quarter century and now radiates African charm.
