Lewis Hamilton's Africa Safari

“How does one describe such an experience that leaves you so speechless?”

A more than valid question from the Formula One maestro of his journey through Rwanda.

Whoever the traveler, few experiences make as profound or lasting impact as gorilla trekking. The somewhat challenging hike – lasting anywhere from 45 minutes to several hours – makes the experience all the more rewarding.

“We were welcomed with smiles and music from the beautiful Rwandan people. We hiked up through beautiful green fields where children would sing to us, and up a volcano where we found Gorillas. What a sight it was to see them in their natural habitat relaxed and protected by the community around them. This is where they should be, in their own homes free to live their lives in peace. It was a profound and truly moving experience.”
