Rwanda and Seychelles Vacation
Walk alongside gorillas, game drive next to lions and snorkel pristine coral reefs, all in one unforgettable trip. Hop between 2 of Rwanda’s national parks before topping up your tan on Félicité private island in the Seychelles. At Magashi Camp in Akagera National Park enjoy day and night game drives, walking safaris, fishing, birding and boating in some of the most scenic savannahs in East Africa comprising of woodlands, open plains, lakes, grassy low mountains and swampland. By contrast, Volcanoes National Park protects the steep rainforested slopes of the magnificent Virungas mountain range. Here you will stay at the luxury, eco-lodge, Bisate, in a Forest Villa with outstanding views. The lodge is within easy driving distance of Volcanoes National Park headquarters from where you will depart on your memorable gorilla trek.
Then escape to the pristine shores of the Seychelles where you will stay at the eco-conscious Six Senses Zil Pasyon on Félicité private island. Enjoy island life at your own pace, from a morning hike with the island’s conservation manager to snorkeling, diving, or indulging in tranquil treatments in the Six Senses Spa.
