Go where the crowds don’t, explore what others won’t!
Our next stop: 10 days African Highlands. An adventurous getaway and entirely different Safari experience with the right touch of luxury and off the tourist trail but safe and well organized. One of the only places where you can see the gentle but impressive primates in their natural habitat. But that is not all… A once-in-a-lifetime experience at its best is waiting.
Start out the 2.000 km journey in Kigali, Rwanda. Kigali is a kaleidoscope of colors and a vibrant city, warm and welcoming! It will blow you away how clean it is. You will not spot any litter… It will surely change your views just like it changed ours when we first arrived here.
The real driving adventure begins as we head into nature towards Nyungwe National Park - One of the oldest rainforests in Africa, Nyungwe is rich in biodiversity and spectacularly beautiful. Step into a rich tropical forest and for the first time on this journey and see chimpanzees and other types of chimps in the wild!
By now we got used to these astonishing African gravel and winding tarmac roads as we navigate further North via Lake Kivu and the Volcanoes National Park in the Virunga Mountains. One of the most panoramic sights of Rwanda before we cross over to Uganda. Spend time tracking the mountain gorillas through the misty bamboo forest for an experience that is an extremely special privilege and an unforgettable and magical encounter.
Keep steering your Safari-ready Porsche towards the famous Queen Elizabeth National Park with its stunning landscapes and extraordinary animal life. Few reserves in the world can compete with this wide selection of scenic views including savannah, bushland, wetlands and lush forests. This park is Uganda’s premier game viewing destination and the famous tree-climbing lions are its undisputed wildlife stars but you can also expect to see elephants, hippos, giraffes, crocodiles, buffaloes and plenty of antelope species – all through the windshield of your Porsche!
Still did not get enough of the primates? Crossing Uganda also means passing Kibale National Park - one of the best safari destinations in Africa for chimpanzee tracking. Thirteen species can be sought, and a good variety of monkeys can be encountered, but the stars are undoubtfully the chimpanzees.
Gravel roads and the scenic routes continue, and the mighty Nile River is calling close to the Murchison Falls National Park. Take a bit time to slow down at the shores of the Victoria Nile before it is time to get back into the cars for an entirely wild experience. Enjoy the wildlife, start counting, but do not expect to finish fast. The ‘BIG 5’ should be ticked off before you leave this park.
