Rwanda is known for her majestic mountain gorillas and dramatic mountain views, but also offers a rich biodiversity, charming local culture and some of the world's most iconic eco-sensitive accommodation. Rwanda is justifiably one of Africa's ultimate 'off-the-beaten-track' destinations. From traditional safaris in Akagera National Park to trekking the rainforests of Volcanoes National Park, Rwanda is the perfect place for those seeking to satisfy their adventurous side.

RWANDA EXPERIENCES
Renowned for the mountain gorillas, Rwanda offers a wealth of amazing safari and authentic nature experiences. We’ll customise a once-in-a-lifetime Rwanda itinerary that reflects your specific interests, passions and dreams.
Rwanda is relatively small in African terms, but rich in diverse landscapes and wildlife encounters. The Volcanoes National Park is home to the endangered gorilla; whilst the savannahs and lakes of Akagera offer a Big 5 safari experience. Enjoy the Mediterranean-like shores of Lake Kivu or the cloud forests of Nyugwe National Park. Let us design a custom trip including the perfect places for you.
From majestic wildlife to out of this world natural wonders, cultural melting pots and enchanting beaches, every bespoke Mahlatini journey is thrilling. Unsure where to visit? Whether it’s a bucket-list adventure, a milestone celebration or simply a much-needed escape, experience the joy with this inspiring selection of favorites.
Rwanda is considered a year-round destination. If gorilla trekking is your primary motivation, we recommend visiting during the short rain months of December to February, and the dry season months of June to September to ensure easier conditions for hiking.

We worked and reworked the course until we were completely satisfied. The itinerary, the activities, as wel…
It was a trip of a lifetime. I loved the people, the animals, the lodgings and the countryside. It was an absolutely amazing trip. The only downside was all of the travelling within the trip.
We had a wonderful experience from the moment we stepped off the plane until we cleared security at the airport on our return.
