Chimp Tracking | Huye Mountain Coffee Tour | Nyungwe National Park

After an early morning breakfast, your guide will pick you up and drive you the park headquarters for the pre-trek briefing.

Chimpanzee trekking is one of the most sought-after activities in Rwanda, and is best done in the semi-wet season where food sources are plentiful and they therefore come nearer to the trails. You get to see chimps in their most authentic natural habitat.
You will spend an hour with them taking pictures, savoring the moment, and making memories of a lifetime.

Return to the lodge for lunch and later drive to Huye Mountain for the coffee tour, which was started by a veteran named David, a veteran of the Rwandan coffee industry. David and his team will take you the whole process of the art of coffee production.

Return to the lodge for dinner and an overnight stay.

Canopy Walk | Return to Kigali

Early morning breakfast and you're off for the canopy walk. The canopy walk tour starts at Uwinka which is also the park’s headquarters and the round trip takes from 1.5 to 2 hours long. After registering at the Visitor’s Center, visitors take on a forest trail that connects to the Igishigishigi trail.

The forest walk offers a beautiful nature experience and one gets to observe wildlife found at the ground level and enjoy beautiful views of forest covered rolling hills. This is such a remarkable experience to be able to see animals from 70 meters above.

After the canopy walk, embark on a drive back to Kigali International Airport for your outbound flight back to your home country.
