Rwanda in 8 days: gorillas, Nyungwe and Lake Kivu
Kigali → Volcanoes → Lake Kivu → Nyungwe
An hour with a gorilla family on a forested volcano, and a country that has made itself one of Africa's easiest to travel: chimpanzees in a montane rainforest, a canopy walkway over the treetops, a lake with no crocodiles, and a memorial that should be visited first — with the permit reality stated plainly.
