Your Rwandan adventure begins the moment you land at Kigali International Airport, where a warm welcome from Naleyo Tours & Travel sets the tone for the journey ahead. Travel southwest through Rwanda’s rolling emerald hills and endless tea plantations to Nyanza, where the King’s Palace Museum brings the country’s regal past to life. Step inside traditional thatched huts, admire the graceful Inyambo cattle adorned with royal ornaments, and immerse yourself in tales of ancient monarchs and tradition. Continue through scenic countryside to your luxury lodge in the heart of Nyungwe Forest. After a sumptuous lunch, venture onto the famous Canopy Walk, a 160-meter bridge suspended above the lush rainforest. Surrounded by mist, birdsong, and towering mahoganies, you’ll feel the wild pulse of Africa beneath your feet. The day ends in refined comfort, as the forest hums softly under the starlit Rwandan sky.
