A Journey to the Heart of Rwanda
In this inspiring travel story, North South Travel’s adventure specialist Anne Bird recounts her once-in-a-lifetime journey to Rwanda — a country known for its breathtaking landscapes, rich culture, and conservation success. From Kigali’s poignant Genocide Memorial to the misty trails of Volcanoes National Park, Anne shares the powerful impact of encountering endangered mountain gorillas in the wild. Highlights include the exclusive gorilla trekking experience, the internationally celebrated Kwita Izina gorilla naming ceremony, and the seamless luxury touches curated by Tourism Rwanda and North South Travel. More than a wildlife adventure, the trip reflects Rwanda’s resilience and showcases how responsible tourism supports conservation and local communities. Whether you’re dreaming of a gorilla trek, a Big Five safari, or a Zanzibar beach escape, North South Travel can craft a personalized, meaningful adventure that leaves a lasting impact — on both the traveler and the planet.
