About The Hotel

Wilderness Bisate is a sustainably luxurious rainforest-based lodge offering Africa's most thrilling wild primate experience. Bisate sits on the doorstep of one of Africa’s oldest national parks, Volcanoes National Park. It provides a sanctuary to hundreds of the world’s 1,000 endangered mountain gorillas – as well as other creatures such as golden monkeys, bushbuck, buffalo, occasional elephant, and more than 200 bird species.

Six sublime en-suite forest villas, designed as an homage to Rwandan royalty, overlook unforgettable vistas over brooding Bisoke, Karisimbi and Mikeno volcanoes. A wine cellar, library, spa, restaurant, and tree nursery, woven through with warm hospitality complete this natural wonder.
