Welcome to Purple Gorilla

Your journey into Rwanda begins here.

Rwanda is compact, but the experiences are anything but. Move from Kigali's creative energy to the misty Virunga foothills, open Akagera savannah and the ancient rainforest of Nyungwe.

We create flexible journeys that bring together wildlife, landscapes, culture and time to simply be present.
