Rwanda Safaris - An Overview
Often called the "Land of a Thousand Hills" Rwanda has a richly varied landscape. Lake Kivu is one of the most spectacular Rift Valley lakes and is amongst 22 others in Rwanda. There are also five volcanoes, tropical and montane forests and dry savannah. The geography gives reason enough for visiting this small country.
Three national parks protect the wide range of fauna and flora: Akagera National Park, Virunga National Park and Nyungwe National Park. The biggest attraction are the rare mountain gorilla on the slopes of the volcanoes.
