Virunga is located in the northern part of Rwanda with a magnificent verdant swathe across the steep ridges of the Albertine Rift Valley. This ancient rainforest is one of the few in Africa to have flourished and is home to half of the world’s endangered population of mountain gorillas. Looking into the expressive brown eyes of these giants is surely the most exciting and poignant wildlife encounter Rwanda has to offer.
Upon your arrival at Kigali International Airport, you will meet our driver guide who will be waiting for you outside at the arrivals point at the airport holding a company’s poster for easy identification. He will drive you to your hotel to rest and relax while preparing yourself for tomorrow’s activity.
