Dinner and Overnight at Sabyinyo Silverback Lodge

Accommodation

Sabyinyo Silverback Lodge

Sabyinyo Silverback Lodge

Hotel Type: Luxury Lodge

Location

This lodge is situated in the foothills of the volcanic Virungas Mountains in north-western Rwanda, on the edge of the Parc National des Volcans – known in English as the Volcanoes National Park.
The lodge is just a 20-minute drive from the national park headquarters, and is one of the most luxurious lodges in the area.

Rooms

Guest accommodation at Sabyinyo Silverback Lodge consists of six cottages, two
suites and a family cottage. All the rooms are spacious, and have an equally spacious en suite bathroom. They are decorated in the same style, too, with gentle terracotta and white colors throughout, and stunning wildlife paintings, mainly of the gorillas.

Each room comes with large double or twin beds (complete with very snug bedding), a dressing room (with plenty of hanging space and shelving, which houses a safe) and a minibar, pre-stocked with bottled water and bottles of wine, should you wish to relax in your room rather than head to the bar.

Facilities/Amenities

A reception areaBarDining areaLibraryGames room and shopAn attractive patio area extends outdoors from the dining room, and guests are invited to relax here with a drink and enjoy the beautiful views at the end of the dayA Community Information Area provides an insight into the region’s flora and fauna as well as the fascinating culture and history of Rwanda

Day 3

Gorilla Trekking - Departure

Today you will have the rare opportunity to observe the famous Rwandan Mountain Gorillas (subject to gorilla permits being available). Tracking the Gorillas through the forested slopes of the Virungas is a magical experience. If you are lucky you can get to the Gorillas, spend an hour with them, and be back at the base in time for a late lunch. Some Gorilla families, however, are more elusive, and tracking can take a full day, especially when it is wet and muddy.

After Lunch depart from foothills of the Virunga Volcanoes, driving South past coffee, tea and banana plantations on a breathtaking scenic drive back to Kigali. On arrival in Kigali you will be transferred to Kigali International airport for your onward departure flight.
