Discover the Heart of Africa.
From misty gorilla forests in the Virunga volcanoes to the sweeping savannah plains of Akagera, Rwanda offers one of Africa's most intimate and rewarding safari experiences — all in a country the size of a postcard.
Small in size, staggering in beauty.
Rwanda is one of Africa's most remarkable safari destinations — a country that has quietly emerged as one of the continent's most rewarding and sophisticated travel experiences. From the mist-shrouded peaks of the Virunga volcanoes to the sweeping acacia-dotted plains of Akagera National Park, Rwanda packs an astonishing variety of landscapes, wildlife, and culture into its rolling green hills.
At Tarec Gorilla Safaris, we have crafted Rwanda safari experiences for travelers of all kinds — families, couples, solo adventurers, and wildlife enthusiasts who have seen much of Africa but saved Rwanda for last.
