Transfer from Lake Kivu to the mighty rain forest, Nyungwe forest. Nyungwe forest is south from Kivu lake and is another of Rwanda’s rain forests. This is home to a number of Chimpanzees, and 12 other primate species including the endemic Ruwenzori black and white colobus monkey, so many bird species to view. You will drive with some stops enroute to appreciate the beautiful landscape of Rwanda. On reaching Nyungwe, you will check in into the lodge as you prepare for the chimpanzee tracking tomorrow.
