Volcanoes 8 Day Safari Wins National Geographic Award

The entire Volcanoes Team are delighted to have won another prestigious National Geographic award, ‘Tours of a Lifetime 2010' for our 8 Day ‘Gorillas in the Virungas and Bwindi' safari.

Volcanoes 8 day 'Gorillas in the Virungas and Bwindi' safari wins National Geographic Traveler magazine's "50 Tours of a Lifetime" award.

In 2009 we won National Geographic Adventure magazine's "Best Adventure Travel Companies on Earth" award so we are delighted to have continued our success this year with another accolade, this time for one of "the most authentic, most innovative, most immersive, best-guided, and most sustainable tour" in the world.

Norie Quintos, the senior editor of National Georgraphic Traveler magazine, commented that the editorial team of the magazine had "selected a tour operator who had responded to travelers looking for more meaning and context to their tours". She added that "beyond guiding them to the destination, they have also found novel ways to give back".

Our ‘Gorillas in the Virungas and Bwindi' Safari takes you to three gorilla parks - Parc National des Volcans in Rwanda and Mgahinga National Park and Bwindi Impenetrable Forest in Uganda. On safari travelers stay at the newly refurbished Volcanoes Virunga Lodge in Rwanda and at Volcanoes Mount Gahinga Lodge and Volcanoes Bwindi Lodge in Uganda.

We are immensely proud to have been awarded this accolade. It is a recognition of our commitment to ensuring tourism in the areas in which we work respects the culture of local communities, their modest economic means and the fragility of the environment.
