There’s one main reason visitors come from all over the world to stay at this collection of lodges deep in the Volcanoes National Park in the north of Rwanda – to see the gorillas that make this remote, forested place their home. They’re far from the only attraction. Combining luxury with genuine eco-mindedness, Bisate is a first in the country to involve the local community in a positive way and engage in reforestation programmes, while providing contemporary accommodation that never feels out of place. To stay in one of the thatched-roof lodges overlooking the Virungas Volcanoes is a once-in-a-lifetime experience.
