Bradt Rwanda Guidebook<\/strong><\/p>\n

This updated Bradt Rwanda Guidebook is now into its eighth edition and written by Philip Briggs, the world\u2019s leading author of African guidebooks. Bradt\u2019s Rwanda has been the go-to guide for visitors to the \u2018Land of a Thousand Hills\u2019 for more than 20 years. Still the only standalone guide in English to this increasingly popular destination, it remains in a class of its own for in-depth information.<\/p>\n

With fresh research into developments across the country, Bradt\u2019s Rwanda includes expanded coverage of Gishwati-Mukura National Park, which opened to tourism in 2021, and up-to-date details of rapidly modernising Kigali, considered Africa\u2019s cleanest city.<\/p>\n

Rwanda continues to change and develop at an unprecedented pace \u2013 no country has a higher proportion of female parliamentarians \u2013 and there\u2019s hardly a more accessible part of Africa.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s no less intriguing for the convenience, however, and Rwanda\u2019s superlative natural attractions constantly improve, with growing animal populations, as in Akagera National Park, where Africa\u2019s Big Five (rhino, lion, leopard, elephant and buffalo) can be seen.<\/p>\n

This new edition also includes extensive maps and natural history information, while details of kayak and canoe excursions on Lake Kivu and the Mukungwa River complement advice about staying on tea plantations at Sorwathe or Gisovu.<\/p>\n

It contains everything you need to know about tracking mountain gorillas in Volcanoes National Park (workplace of primatologist Dian Fossey of Gorillas in the Mist fame) and chimpanzees in Nyungwe National Park (East Africa\u2019s largest surviving montane forest, harbouring numerous endemic birds and primates) and Gishwati-Mukura (which is also the only location for the rare golden monkey outside the Virunga mountains).<\/p>\n

Also covered are Nyanza, with its hilltop Rukari King\u2019s Palace Museum, and the Ethnographic Museum of Rwanda, the top cultural site in Butare (Huye). A chapter on nearby cities and national parks provides key necessary information to take an excursion into neighbouring DRC, including how to see lowland gorillas.<\/p>\n

As not only the most in-depth guide available in English, but also the guide with the longest history in the country itself, this updated Bradt Rwanda Guidebook is the indispensable companion for visitors, including wildlife enthusiasts and Africa aficionados.<\/p>\n
