Description

After two weeks on safari in Kenya and Tanzania, Steph and Cal spent a week in Rwanda — a last-minute addition that ended up being their favorite leg of the trip. In Part 2 of our East Africa series, we cover the history and lasting impact of the Rwandan genocide, what Rwanda is like today, and a special experience visiting gorillas in Volcanoes National Park.
