About Nyungwe Tea Forest Resort
On the edge of one of Africa's oldest rainforests, where tea fields meet a canopy shaped over millions of years, Nyungwe Tea Forest Resort invites guests to discover Rwanda beyond the expected. Set within the Gisakura Tea Estate and bordering the UNESCO-listed Nyungwe National Park, this destination occupies a place that could exist nowhere else.
Here, the landscape is the journey. Forest trails lead into one of the continent's most biodiverse ecosystems, home to primates and hundreds of bird species. Beyond the canopy, generations of harvesters continue traditions woven into daily life. Guests may track chimpanzees at dawn, explore the tea estate, or learn the crafts and customs of the highlands alongside local guides.
This isn't simply a stay in Rwanda. It is an immersion into one of Africa's most remarkable living landscapes, where every experience reveals a deeper connection to the rainforest, its people and their stories.
