A Rwanda Honeymoon: Gorillas, Lakes and Lodges Made for Two
Adventure and romance rarely share an itinerary this naturally.
Eben Safari Tours Team2 min read
Quick answerA Rwanda honeymoon usually combines two or three nights at a luxury gorilla lodge near Volcanoes National Park, a gorilla trek together, two nights on Lake Kivu and optionally Nyungwe Forest or Akagera. Rwanda's short distances mean more time together and less time in the car.
Why Rwanda for a honeymoon?
Few experiences bond a couple like sitting quietly an arm's length from a gorilla family. Add fireside suites with volcano views, spa treatments, lake sunsets and a destination your friends haven't been to yet.
Our favourite honeymoon combination
- Kigali – one night to recover from the flight
- Volcanoes National Park – three nights at a luxury lodge, one gorilla trek
- Lake Kivu – two nights of boats, beaches and sunsets
- Nyungwe – one or two nights among the tea fields
Romantic touches we arrange
- Private dinners on lodge terraces
- Couples' spa treatments
- A sunset boat cruise with sundowners on Lake Kivu
- A helicopter transfer between parks (on request)
