Safari & Gorilla Combo: Rwanda’s Ultimate Tour.
Rwanda is one of Africa’s most remarkable destinations, offering both the thrill of safari adventures and the life-changing experience of gorilla trekking. For travelers who want the best of both worlds, a Safari & Gorilla Combo tour is the ultimate way to explore Rwanda’s natural treasures. With Mandari Travel, you can embark on a seamless journey that combines the excitement of seeing the Big Five in Akagera National Park with the unforgettable encounter of standing face-to-face with mountain gorillas in Volcanoes National Park.
Why Choose a Safari & Gorilla Combo Tour?
A Safari & Gorilla Combo gives you two unique experiences in one journey:
- Big Five safari in Akagera National Park, where you’ll spot lions, elephants, buffalo, leopards, and rhinos.
- Mountain gorilla trekking in Volcanoes National Park, an experience that is both emotional and inspiring.
This tour allows you to see Rwanda’s incredible biodiversity, from the wide-open savannahs to the misty rainforests of the Virunga Mountains.
The Akagera Safari Experience
Located just 2.5 hours from Kigali, Akagera National Park is Rwanda’s premier safari destination. The park has undergone an incredible revival and is now home to thriving populations of wildlife. During game drives, you’ll encounter giraffes, zebras, antelopes, hippos, and over 500 bird species. For a unique twist, a boat safari on Lake Ihema offers the chance to see crocodiles, hippos, and waterbirds up close.
Gorilla Trekking in Volcanoes National Park
The highlight of the combo tour is trekking into the misty forests of Volcanoes National Park to see mountain gorillas. This once in a lifetime adventure takes you through lush landscapes until you reach a gorilla family in its natural habitat. Watching them interact, feed, and play is an extraordinary experience that leaves travelers deeply moved.
Not only does gorilla trekking provide a personal connection with nature, but it also contributes directly to conservation. Permit fees support both gorilla protection and local community projects.
Best Time to Do a Safari & Gorilla Combo
The best time to enjoy this tour is during the dry seasons (June–September and December–February), when wildlife viewing is easier and trekking conditions are more comfortable. However, Rwanda is a year-round destination, and both Akagera and Volcanoes National Park offer rewarding experiences in every season.
