READ MORE ON TRAVEL GUIDE FOR RWANDAAt AfricanMecca Safaris, we understand your requirements when you talk about fulfilling your dream of the ultimate luxury vacation experience in Africa. We know that you are looking forward to smaller, intimate accommodations in Rwanda where your every whim is carefully catered to, in plush and private rooms and suites. Whether you are a honeymooning couple beginning your romance and life together or discerning vacationers spending time on an indulgent trip away from the routine of daily living, you will find what you need in Rwanda.
You can expect that your air and road transport will be completely seamless, with every tiny detail taken care of well in advance. We ensure that you are privately whisked from one Rwandan destination to another smoothly; we seek out charter aircraft wherever possible, or schedule other modes of transport exclusively for you.
At boutique lodges in Rwanda, expect suites with luxurious bedding and homely lounges that you have to yourself, alongside the opportunity to revel in stunning views interrupted only by the sounds of the wilderness. Dine on the finest gourmet food set on fine china and sip excellent wines in crystal glasses. Look forward to discreet service from staff that understands your bespoke need for solitude, then relax under the expert hands of Rwandan masseuses as they chase the aches and pains from your muscles before leaving you to luxuriate in a hot bath. Your opulent safari holiday will have all this and more.
If you plan a tour of Volcanoes National Park to visit the rare mountain gorillas, you can opt to stay at premier Sabyinyo Silverback Lodge or Bisate Lodge. With only 9 suites, set far apart from one another, Sabyinyo Silverback Lodge will assure you have all the seclusion and privacy you need. Its colonial-style suites feature wrought-iron furniture, a fireplace, and luxury furnishings for utmost comfort in the cool highlands of Rwanda. The lodge offers fantastic views of the volcanic peaks of Bisoke, Mikeno, and Karisimbi. We also recommend staying at Bisate Lodge, a 6-villa, upmarket accommodation located within a dense forested wilderness, to which birds and smaller fauna have made it their home.
While your treks to see the Virunga mountain gorillas of Rwanda are managed by park authorities, AfricanMecca can procure the necessary permits according to your intended travel dates and also the preferred family of gorillas to visit based on your physical ability. As for seeing the other attractions of Volcanoes National Park, we will assign dedicated guides and make other private, personalized arrangements wherever possible. We want you to enjoy every moment of your experiences in complete intimacy with the wilderness.
Virunga Lodge is perfectly suited for the perceptive vacationer seeking the country-home rusticity of living in a banda suite. These suites are crafted out of naturally occurring materials like stone and clay, with furniture made of rattan and rough-hewn wood. Enjoy Rwanda’s superb temperate climate (read more on when to visit), which stays pleasant throughout the year, and in the evening warm yourself by a romantic fireplace that adds a cozy glow to each suite and highlights the eclectic collection of local art that adorns it.
You can spend time on your patio soaking in the views of the twin lakes, Ruhondo and Bulera, and the lush farmlands and savannah plains of Volcanoes National Park. The environment abounds with butterflies and mongooses, and you might just catch sight of some of the 178 bird species in the park — a truly delightful experience. In every one of the accommodations you can look forward to bathrooms equipped with the finest amenities and a collection of luxurious, handcrafted toiletries for your use.
One&Only Nyungwe House is yet another luxury accommodation in the famed Nyungwe Forest National Park. Surrounded by the fragrance of tea gardens and breathtaking views of the countryside, the lodge is the quintessential holiday accommodation. Soak in the heated infinity pool with lush Rwandan greenery all around you, or perhaps just sip drinks beside it. You can keep up with your daily workout routine in the well-equipped fitness center or allow the highly trained massage therapist to pamper and rejuvenate you.
These are only some of the enchanting, indulgent experiences you can look forward to when vacationing in the beautiful country of Rwanda with AfricanMecca Safaris. Trust us to sense your every unexpressed desire for a wondrous, unforgettable, and authentic luxury holiday in the wilds of Africa.
