Home FAQ Planning & logistics

Are private Rwanda safaris available?

Direct answer

Yes — private Rwanda safaris with your own 4×4 Land Cruiser and dedicated guide are widely available from Kigali-based operators. You control daily schedule, lodge choice, and pace — ideal for photographers, families, and honeymooners. Private gorilla treks still join the RDB ranger group (max eight trekkers per family) but transport, lodging, and transfers are exclusive. Expect USD 500–800 per person per day mid-range.

Overview

Uganda combines mountain gorilla trekking, classic savannah game viewing, chimpanzee tracking, birding, and cultural experiences in a compact circuit. The right answer depends on your dates, fitness, budget, and whether you travel with a licensed operator who handles permits, road logistics, and park regulations.
