Rwanda safaris in February take you to the most famous natural areas, such as Volcanoes National Park, which offers everything you need in one package, including wildlife, gorilla safaris, vegetation, and the Dian Fossey tomb, among others.
Volcanoes National Park is well known for having the highest number of mountain gorillas living in the Virunga Conservation Area. It is easy to reach, taking only about 2 hours from Kigali International Airport, where you are picked up by your booked tour company.
The national park also showcases golden monkeys, colorful birds, reptiles, amphibians, insects, and more. The wild species live in a space of 160 square kilometers on the northern side of Rwanda, connecting to Virunga National Park in Congo and Mgahinga Gorilla National Park.
Nyungwe National Park is another beautiful place in Rwanda, also home to many wild animals, allowing tourists to take part in chimpanzee trekking with the help of a knowledgeable team.
You will be guided on what to pack while in the park, and always remember that earth-tone clothes are a must so you do not attract stinging insects, which are drawn to bright colors. Permits are needed for activities, and your tour company will help you arrange them.
You cannot visit Rwanda and miss Akagera National Park, a special place full of natural wonders like rhinos, lions, elephants, zebras, cape buffaloes, antelopes, and giant crocodiles.
Human interaction here is also very friendly, which is why cultural tours are included.
Before returning to Kigali, explore the genocide memorial sites to learn about the dark history of the 1994 Genocide in Rwanda. Remember, you are not allowed to film anything unless you have official documents showing you have permission from the authorities.
