The 5-Day safari starts and finishes in Kigali. With major airlines such as KLM, Brussels Airlines, Air France, Kenya Airways, Ethiad and Rwandair flying into Kigali International Airport, accessibility has never been easier. Your journey will take you to the remote and enchanting Mount Gahinga Lodge in Uganda. Nestled in the foothills of the Virunga Volcanoes, it is an exclusive lodge that offers unparalleled quiet and respite from the outside world. Nights can be chilly at 2,300m, so warm yourself by the wood-burning fire in the main lodge or in your room. Staff will even slip a hot water bottle between the bed sheets in the evening!
