Rwanda is truly a country of wonder and is slowly making a name for itself on the safari circuit, and for more than just primates, though spending time with our cousins is, of course, an incredible draw. Known as the land of a thousand hills, Rwanda has vistas to die for with lush, green mountains climbing into the clouds and neat, rowed terraces of tea and paddy fields drawing lines into the hillsides.
