From the Great Migration to Rwanda’s gorillas

MASAI MARA
After a first night in Nairobi, you’ll begin your journey with a light aircraft flight to your first camp, Little Governors, for 4 nights, perfectly located in a protected area on the banks of the Mara River, in what is known as the Mara Triangle.
The landscapes are in constant flux and rank among the most beautiful in the reserve.
Endless grasslands, dense thickets, and the Mara River provide a thriving habitat for a wide range of wildlife.
This is even more true between July and October, when the herds of the Great Migration cross these plains.

This camp makes for an unforgettable safari thanks to its setting, with views over the Oloololo Escarpment and the intimacy afforded by its small size. You’ll be able to enjoy 3 safaris a day, timed to the hours most favourable for wildlife sightings.
At nightfall, you can relax around a campfire, with birdsong as background music and elephants in the distance.

VOLCANOES NATIONAL PARK
After scenes of hunting that can be fierce, prepare for one of the most moving and peaceful wildlife encounters on earth.
An encounter that must be earned, that builds gradually, and that proves deeply emotional.
The encounter with the mountain gorillas of Volcanoes National Park, where you’ll stay 3 nights at a luxury lodge, the Sabyinyo Silverback Lodge from the Wilderness brand, set at the foot of the mist-shrouded Virunga Massif.
After a flight from Nairobi to Kigali and a night in the capital, you’ll head out with your private French-speaking guide to your lodge, nestled among the mountains and volcanoes. Here, a genuine spirit of conservation and rehabilitation prevails.
What a captivating setting!

The next day, the big day has arrived! You’re about to experience something extraordinary after making your way, not without effort, through a magnificent forest. Before you, a family of mountain gorillas. You’ll be able to watch them go about their daily routines and observe just how fascinating their behaviour is, and how close to our own: babies swinging from branches, mothers lazily chewing bamboo, and the silverback keeping a close eye on a restless blackback.
You have a precious hour with these iconic primates, and you’ll treasure every second of it.
A memory that will stay with you forever.

Other activities are available depending on your interests, such as golden monkey tracking, guided walks through lush vegetation, a village visit, or birdwatching.
