For many travelers, an African safari is a once-in-a-lifetime dream.
Imagine watching the Great Migration in Tanzania’s Serengeti or Kenya’s Masai Mara—millions of wildebeest and zebras crossing vast plains—while spotting the legendary Big Five in their natural habitat.
But why stop there?
After the savannah, take your journey to new heights by meeting mountain gorillas in Rwanda’s lush, misty volcano forests.
Seamless Travel Between Safari and Gorilla Trekking
Thanks to new direct flight connections, you can now fly straight from the Serengeti or Masai Mara to Kigali, Rwanda—no complicated transfers, no wasted travel days.
This makes it easier than ever to combine:
➔ The Great Migration – raw, untamed wildlife drama in the Serengeti or Masai Mara.
➔ Gorilla Trekking – a rare, up-close encounter with majestic silverback gorillas in Volcanoes National Park.
East Africa is now more connected than ever, making this the perfect time to plan the ultimate double adventure.
One Visa, Less Hassle – Why Rwanda Beats Uganda
Traveling between Tanzania and Rwanda is now incredibly simple thanks to the East African Tourist Visa.
With just one visa, you can visit Rwanda, Tanzania, and Kenya—saving time, money, and paperwork.
Even better:
➔ No yellow fever vaccination required if you travel directly from a non-risk country, like the United States, to Tanzania and Rwanda.
➔ Uganda, on the other hand, does require proof of yellow fever vaccination, adding extra steps and costs to your journey.
Result: Combining a classic safari with gorilla trekking in Rwanda is easier, safer, and more convenient than including Uganda in your route.
Gorilla Trekking in Rwanda: A Life-Changing Experience
Walking through the misty bamboo forests of Volcanoes National Park, you’ll hear rustling leaves and the soft calls of the wild before you see them: a family of mountain gorillas.
Standing just meters away from a silverback gorilla, watching them interact in their natural environment, is a deeply moving experience that stays with you forever.
This isn’t just wildlife viewing—it’s a rare connection with one of the most endangered species on Earth.
