Rwanda hosts a quarter of the mountain gorilla population along with Uganda (half) and DR Congo (a quarter). Rwanda and Uganda have created a unique safari experience where conservation-based tourism of gorilla trekking has proved crucial in saving the endangered mountain gorillas. Travellers get to experience the once in a life time thrill of seeing mountain gorillas in their natural tropical rainforest habitat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And yet with its inspirational story of transformation, Rwanda has diligently worked to move on from the grim episode of genocide to become one of Africa\u2019s remarkable transformational stories.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Rwanda offers a lot more than gorilla trekking. From Kigali, arguably Africa\u2019s most vibrant city, to the great rift valley\/Albertine rift valley, which is home to many endemic species, Rwanda awes every visitor. Rwanda has big game including lions, rhinos, giraffes and other mammals that dwell in Akagera, Nyungwe Forest and other national parks. Rwanda also has remarkable creativity that spans time from ancient kingdoms and is uniquely celebrated in rich traditional dance and architecture. Visitors to Rwanda can enjoy all this happily in the knowledge that Rwanda leads with a green mindset; having banned plastic bags in 2008 remains one of the countries innovatively leading in the transition to greener living. Above all, Rwanda was voted as the 9th\u00a0safest country in the world by the World Economic Forum. Rwanda is now an upscale, low-impact destination with some of the best lodges in the world (\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.cntraveler.com\/gallery\/africa-top-resorts\">https:\/\/www.cntraveler.com\/gallery\/africa-top-resorts<\/a>\u00a0)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-8f761849 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"684\" src=\"http:\/\/buutusafaris.com\/new-website\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Gorilla-Trekking-Safari-1024x684.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-623\" srcset=\"https:\/\/buutusafaris.com\/new-website\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Gorilla-Trekking-Safari-1024x684.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/buutusafaris.com\/new-website\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Gorilla-Trekking-Safari-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/buutusafaris.com\/new-website\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Gorilla-Trekking-Safari-768x513.jpg 768w, https:\/\/buutusafaris.com\/new-website\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Gorilla-Trekking-Safari-1536x1025.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/buutusafaris.com\/new-website\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Gorilla-Trekking-Safari.jpg 1618w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 767px) 89vw, (max-width: 1000px) 54vw, (max-width: 1071px) 543px, 580px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Whether it is for gorilla trekking or a more immersive experience, we will tailor just the Rwanda safari for you.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Rwanda \u2013 the land of a thousand hills cascading with infinite grace.
