LUXURY AFRICA SAFARI HOLIDAYS

ABOUT THE ITINERARY

With our Ultimate Rwanda and Tanzania holiday itinerary, you will experience two of Africa’s greatest wildlife experiences: gorilla tracking in the enchanting Rwandan rainforest and a safari in the infamous Serengeti National Park.

After a night in Kigali, Rwanda’s modern and vibrant capital, you will set off to track the magisterial mountain gorillas and golden monkeys in the aptly-named Volcanoes National Park, a truly unforgettable experience.

Your Rwandan adventure is followed by an authentic Tanzania safari in the Serengeti, where you will be able to get up close to some of Africa’s most iconic wildlife on daily game drives and bush walks.

DAY 2-5

VOLCANOES NATIONAL PARK

On day two, you will begin your day by visiting the Kigali Genocide Memorial which will take you through the haunting events of the 1994 Rwandan genocide, and serve as a permanent memorial to those who lost their lives.

In the afternoon, you will then be transferred by private vehicle into the enchanting Volcanoes National Park, where an unforgettable gorilla trekking experience awaits you. Your home for the next three nights is Singita Kwitonda Lodge – a leader in sustainable tourism with spectacular views of the Sabyinyo, Gahinga and Muhabura volcanoes.

During your stay, you will be led on thoughtful, guided excursions in search of the endangered mountain gorilla, as well as golden monkeys. Other low-impact activities on the menu include village visits, cooking classes, wine tastings and yoga. Don’t miss out on a visit to the lodge’s on-site nursery which was founded to assist the reforestation and rewilding of the area around Volcanoes National Park.

Stay: Three nights at Singita Kwitonda Lodge

SERENGETI NATIONAL PARK

Leaving Rwanda’s misty rainforest behind, today you will board a flight from Kigali towards Tanzania and the world-renowned Serengeti National Park. Your lodge sits on a 350,000-acre private reserve where giraffes, elephants, big cats and huge herds of antelope roam. Twice daily game drives with professional guides will take you through the reserve’s rolling grasslands, riverine woodland and hidden valleys in search of Africa’s most iconic wildlife. Walking safaris are also available and are a great way to experience the bush up close and personal.

In between excursions, you can indulge in a soothing wellness treatment or practice your serve on the lodge’s tennis court, all surrounded by the beauty of the African wilderness.

“INDIA AT ITS MOST INCREDIBLE”
Unbelievably brilliant from start to finish. The Ultimate Travel Company gave us complete flexibility while tailoring the trip to our personal preferences. Communication was excellent throughout, and the in-country team in India was super-efficient at every stage. The quality of the experience was exceptional – and the value for money, remarkable. From expert naturalists to thrilling wildlife encounters (tigers, leopards, 140 species of birds), awe-inspiring temples, the Taj Mahal, scenic walks and warm, welcoming people – not to mention the fantastic curry – it was a truly superb holiday. “Ultimate” really is “The Ultimate Travel Company”!

“IN SAFE HANDS, EVEN WHEN PLANS CHANGE”
Every detail of our Patagonia tour was expertly arranged – from transfers and flights to the choice of hotels. When our onward flight to the Falklands was delayed by two days, The Ultimate Travel Company stepped in immediately and secured a hotel for us. It was an enormous relief, especially as we don’t speak Spanish and had no idea what to do next. That level of thoughtful, responsive service stayed with us – it turned a potential travel hiccup into a lasting positive memory.

“PROFESSIONAL, PERSONAL – AND A REAL PLEASURE”
From the moment we got in touch, everything felt smooth and well looked after. The team were not only professional and thorough – providing tailored suggestions with clear costings – but also genuinely friendly. Even after we returned, a follow-up email (and a bottle of wine!) showed just how thoughtful Ultimate Travel really is. Nothing was too much trouble. We already have more trips booked and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them.
