This morning after breakfast we head to Butare; an intellectual city of Rwanda and the second largest of Rwanda cities. Butare which is now HUYE hosts the National Museum (supreme museum in East Africa) which is one of the best sources of information about the cultural history of the country and the region.

Along the road to Butare, you will pay a visit to Nyanza; presently Nyabisindu, the former Mwami’s palace (King’s palace) and the base of the feudal kingdom. Later you will have a thrilling concert of the national ballet with the Intore-dancers.  The performance is considered by many as one of the highlights of your safari. Lunch is foreseen in Butare.  Connect to Nyungwe Forest National park, dinner and overnight at Gisakura Guest House / Nyungwe Forest Lodge.
