About this experience

A good way to spend your two-day time in the South and Western Rwanda. Start with the Nyanza King's Palace Museum, offering a detailed look into the Rwandan monarchical system and its abolition in early 1960s due to colonialism.
Experience the rain forest on a canopy walkway hanging 60 meters above forest floor, with a superb view of the park's nature.
Also, spend time experiencing the chimpanzees in Nyungwe National Park. With our local and friendly tour guide, you'll be transported in a vehicle with WIFI onboard for connection with your loved ones and the world. All along, you'll enjoy the revitalising scenery of our Country of a Thousand Hills.
