About this trip

Join us on an unforgettable experience exploring the stunning landscapes and rich cultures of Rwanda and Uganda. 


You will start your journey in Kigali, Rwanda’s capital, where the group will spend the first few days exploring the city’s vibrant culture and history. Visit the Kigali Genocide Memorial, wander through bustling markets, and dine at local restaurants, soaking in Rwanda’s modern yet deeply historical atmosphere. 


After Rwanda, the adventure continues in Uganda, where the group will head to the famous Bwindi Impenetrable Forest for an unforgettable gorilla trekking experience. Trek through the dense forest, guided by experts, to encounter one of the world’s last populations of mountain gorillas in their natural habitat—a truly once-in-a-lifetime experience. Following the trek, the group will head to Kampala, Uganda’s vibrant capital, for cultural exploration. Immerse yourself in the local way of life with visits to traditional markets, historical sites, and cultural centers, rounding off your journey with a deep dive into Uganda’s dynamic heritage and a chance to give back to the community through our foundation, Africa with Us Foundation


This trip perfectly blends natural beauty, wildlife adventure, cultural exploration, and wellness across two of East Africa’s most fascinating countries.

Gorilla Trekking Excursion in Bwindi

 Wake up very early to prepare for the supposed most significant highlight of your trip, the remarkable meet with the Gentle Giants! See the Gorillas upclose and personal in their natural  habitat


After breakfast, we take a drive to the park offices where you will be briefed about the dos and don’ts of the jungle and then you will be off for a forever-memorable adventure of your life. Trekking through the steep, densely forested hills of the Bwindi Impenetrable Forest and then finally coming across the gorillas cloaked in the foliage is an amazing experience, and indescribable because of the difficulty to paint a verbal picture of the vegetation, terrain, smells, colors and the animated entertainment from the gorillas and other residents of the jungle. 

 After your tracking, you will have dinner and relax
