Rise before dawn for the highlight of your trip: an exhilarating chimpanzee trekking experience, venturing deep into Nyungwe’s ancient rainforest with expert trackers to locate and observe these intelligent primates in their natural habitat.

In the afternoon, after lunch, prepare for an aerial perspective of the forest with a thrilling Canopy Walkway experience, suspended high above the trees, followed by an adrenaline-pumping zipline ride through the lush canopy, offering unparalleled views and a unique sensation of flying over the rainforest before heading back to your lodge for a relaxed evening.

After a relaxed breakfast, spend your morning further exploring the wonders of Nyungwe National Park and nearby tea plantations before beginning your scenic return journey to Kigali, carrying with you incredible memories of close encounters with chimpanzees, the exhilarating heights of the canopy and zipline, and a profound appreciation for Rwanda’s natural and cultural treasures.
