About Rwanda

Rwanda Volunteering

The Republic of Rwanda, “Land of a Thousand Hills” is a small landlocked country in the Great Lakes region of east-central Africa, bordered by Uganda, Burundi, the Democratic Republic of the Congo and Tanzania.

Mountain gorillas are an endangered species with only 1000 in existence. Tracking these gentle giants is one of the most memorable wildlife experiences to be had. Images of “Gorillas in the Mist” will abound. The gorillas, despite their appearance, are among the most peaceable of primates.

Dian Fossey’s famous study of the gorillas began in 1963, enabling her to monitor their behaviour at close quarters. Fossey’s work continues posthumously through the Dian Fossey Gorilla Fund. Her grave is situated in Karisoke, among some of her beloved gorillas.

Discover the magic of this pristine mountain country as you explore mountains, lakes, savannah and traditions. Contact us.
