Where To Carry Out Short Rwanda Safaris?
Gorilla Trekking Excellence in Volcanoes Park
A key highlight of Short Rwanda Tours by Ngeye Uganda Tours is Gorilla Trekking in Volcanoes National Park, home to habituated families of mountain gorillas. Trekking through mist‑shrouded bamboo and cloud forests with expert trackers brings you within arm’s reach of these majestic primates. It’s an emotional, intimate encounter that often ranks as the pinnacle of any wildlife safari.
Mountain Gorillas in Their Natural Habitat
Morning hikes begin at the park headquarters, where you are briefed by conservation rangers and assigned a gorilla family. The trek takes between one to four hours—depending on terrain and gorilla location—and ends with a precious hour spent observing gorilla families as they play, rest, and nurture their young. Every moment unfolds in silence and wonder.
Rwanda Gorilla Trekking
Chimpanzee Tracking in Nyungwe Forest
As part of Short Rwanda Tours by Ngeye Uganda Tours, travelers also venture into Nyungwe National Park for Chimpanzee Tracking, one of the most rewarding primate encounters in East Africa. Nyungwe’s high-altitude rainforest is home not only to chimpanzees but to over a dozen primate species, including colobus monkeys and baboons.
Intimate Encounters with Chimpanzees
Guided by conservation-trained trackers, guests hike through lush canopies, winding trails, and misty glens to locate a troop of chimpanzees. The experience is dynamic: you may witness chimps swinging from branches, vocalizing loud calls, or grooming each other. Spending up to an hour in their presence reveals their complex social structures and playful personalities.
Akagera Wildlife Safari: Big Five and Scenic Landscapes
Even though Rwanda is celebrated for primates, a complete wildlife safari within Short Rwanda Tours by Ngeye Uganda Tours includes Akagera National Park, a unique wildlife safari destination. Spread across rolling savannahs, wetlands, and lakes, Akagera is Rwanda’s only Big Five park—home to lion, elephant, rhino, buffalo, and leopard.
What Activities Can Be Carried Out During A Short Rwanda Safari?
Game Drives, Boat Safaris & Stunning Wilderness
This section of your journey features game drives at dawn and dusk where guests may see giraffes, zebras, antelopes, and predators in action. The boat safari on Lake Ihema offers a refreshing perspective: visitors gliding past hippos, crocodiles, and endemic birds like the shoebill stork. The contrast between dense forests and open plains enhances the visual and ecological diversity of your Africa safari experience.
Cultural Immersion: Rwanda’s Rich Heritage
Culture and community are integral to Short Rwanda Tours by Ngeye Uganda Tours. Through curated experiences, guests explore Rwanda’s vibrant heritage, including local crafts, music, dance, history, and contemporary community development.
Community Tourism and Meaningful Engagement
Visitors are welcomed to Iby’iwacu Cultural Village, where you can join interactive demonstrations of Intore dance, listen to oral histories, taste local dishes, and learn artisanal crafts. Former poachers turned conservation stewards share their journey, demonstrating how wildlife tourism transforms communities. A visit to Kigali’s Genocide Memorial provides historical context and honors Rwanda’s path toward reconciliation.
Cultural connections extend to coffee cooperatives, weaving centers, and markets where travelers engage with artisans and neighbors. These experiences underscore tourism’s power to support education, livelihoods, and conservation.

Can I Combine Uganda Gorilla Trekking with Rwanda Safaris?
A standout feature of Short Rwanda Tours by Ngeye Uganda Tours is the potential to seamlessly combine your Rwanda safari with Uganda Gorilla Trekking or Chimpanzee Tracking itineraries, creating an integrated East Africa journey in a concise timeframe.
After spending an hour among gorillas in Volcanoes National Park, you can cross into Uganda to trek gorillas in Bwindi Impenetrable Forest or Mgahinga National Park. This combination allows comparison of different mountain environments, ranger programs, and gorilla families. It’s a powerful way to understand conservation across national borders and appreciate primate behavior in varied habitats.
Seamless Cross-Border Adventures
Alternatively, Chimpanzee Tracking in Rwanda’s Nyungwe can be paired with Uganda’s chimp experiences in Kibale or Kalinzu, creating a primate-themed route that deepens your wildlife safari narrative. Combining Rwanda safari with Uganda safari adventures lets you experience dense rainforest walks, open savannahs, and primate encounters in under two weeks.
Short Rwanda Tours by Ngeye Uganda Tours include all logistics—permitting, transfers, accommodations, and expert guides—to ensure your cross-border journey is smooth and fulfilling.
