Itinerary

Day 1: Kigali Serena Hotel

Upon your arrival at Kigali Airport, a representative will greet you and accompany you to the Kigali Serena Hotel. After checking in, take some time to unwind from your travels.

You can explore the hotel’s amenities, including the Sokoni restaurant, which offers a variety of café-style options throughout the day, or Milima Restaurant, which serves breakfast, lunch, and dinner with a view of the pool.

Day 2: Singita Kwitonda Lodge

Start your day with a freshly brewed coffee and enjoy breakfast at Milima Restaurant. Afterwards, meet at the reception for a guided half-day tour of Kigali. During the tour, you'll experience several cultural activities, visit award-winning museums, and enjoy East Africa’s vibrant music and dining scenes.

On the way to your next destination, indulge in a delightful lunch before arriving at the luxurious 5-star Singita Kwitonda Lodge. Entering Singita Kwitonda feels like stepping into a dream. Situated at the base of the Virunga Mountains, the lodge offers an intimate connection with nature, paired with the refined elegance and impeccable service that Singita is known for.

Check into your one-bedroom suite, complete with an indoor and outdoor shower, indoor bath, cozy sitting area, covered veranda, dressing room, minibar, in-room massage space, indoor and outdoor fireplaces, and a heated plunge pool.

Relax and savor a delicious dinner prepared by local chefs, featuring fresh, farm-to-table ingredients from Singita Volcanoes National Park’s garden, showcasing the best of Rwandan flavors.

Day 3: Gorilla Tracking

Rise early to begin your Gorilla Tracking experience. The cooler morning temperatures make the hike through the dense forest more pleasant.

Afterwards, return to the lodge for a hearty breakfast, and then enjoy some relaxation in your luxurious suite, by the boma, or in the plunge pool.

Later, take an afternoon community walk where you can visit the Ibyachu Cultural Centre or the Red Rock Initiative, followed by a delightful lunch and dinner.

Day 4: Golden Monkey Tracking

Today, prepare for your transfer after breakfast to start the Golden Monkey Tracking adventure. After viewing these beautiful creatures in their habitat, meet the representative that will escort you for your transfer back to Kigali Serena Hotel.

Upon arrival, check into your room and take the opportunity to relax and enjoy the luxury amenities at Kigali Serena.

Day 5: Departure

Start your final day with a warm beverage before breakfast. Then, meet your representative for the transfer back to Kigali Airport for your departure flight.

Anja at Safari.com was a great partner to work with!
Working with Anja at Safari.com was great. She was able to work some magic and got us a few nights at the safari lodge we really wanted, Ngoma. Unfortunately, our flight from the USA to South Africa was canceled and we were rebooked a day later but Anja was great about making sure our lodge and the transports knew about the change in plans and made sure we got to our trip as soon as we could. She was a great partner to have and communicated quickly whenever we reached out. I would highly recommend using her when planning a trip to Africa!

Great service from Denise at Safari.com
Denise from Safari.com was extremely helpful. She responded promptly, provided good advice on safari lodgings options and worked up a couple of itinerary options to suit our budget. Denise also organised flights and transfers very quickly so that we could finalize our booking in a short time. Much appreciated.
