Rwanda landlocked in East, and Central Africa is nicknamed as the ‘ Land of a Thousand Hills’; because of its green and stunning mountainous landscapes. It boasts of its majestic volcanoes and spectacular wildlife. Though Rwanda has suffered a turbulent history in recent years, it has one of the fastest growing tourism sectors in Africa today; as a result, the industry contributes the highest amount of foreign exchange for the country’s government. Rwanda is home to golden monkeys and a third of the worlds endangered mountain gorillas. This 2 Days Gorilla Trekking Rwanda takes you to Kigali for a city tour and a gorilla trek in volcanoes national park.
