  • Return to Lodge: Head back to your accommodation for a well-deserved rest.
  • Relaxation: Enjoy some leisure time at your lodge. Many lodges offer spa services, great meals, and beautiful views of the surrounding landscape.

Return and Rest: Head back to Kigali or accommodation, unwind, and reflect on your amazing wildlife experiences.
