Volcanoes Hosts NatGeo 125 Year Tour

National Geographic, the most famous nature and travel organisation in the world, is celebrating its 125th birthday this year and the celebrations included a journey to the gorillas in Rwanda! Part of the series of celebrations that NG has put together to commemorate the milestone was a trip for a large group to Rwanda to track the rare and endangered mountain gorillas in Parc National des Volcans. Volcanoes was honoured to to host the guests at our Virunga Lodge in Rwanda and provide them with the local driver-guides that made their experience all the more authentic during their stay in March. During their time in Rwanda, the group was able to track the mountain gorillas and enjoy performances from our local intore dance troupe, who perform every evening at the lodge for our guests. They were also able to visit Mwiko Primary School to experience first-hand the level of education and dedication from teachers in Rwanda.
