Rwanda is best known for being the home of a thousand hills, the Mountain Gorillas and lately as one of the most progressive countries in Africa, with a turbulent history and incredible reincarnation. It is a land of great diversity and beauty. The proverbial ‘thousand hills’ are literally scattered through the nation, fertile, green and beautifully terraced. The people are some of the world’s most charming and hospitable, whose ancient culture comes to life through traditional music, songs and dance. Interestingly, there is still more to explore: volcanic mountains, pristine lakes, numerous rivers, amazing birdlife, primates and wildlife, and a fascinating history.
