This elegant tented accommodation, surrounded by the breathtaking mountain landscapes, will bring you as close to nature as possible without compromising on luxuries. It is one of the best spots in the world for tracking mountain gorillas.

The crowned jewel of the camp is the communal area which boasts a comfortable lounge, a well-stocked bar and a dining area.
