The Canopy Walkway in Nyungwe National Park is a suspended bridge 70m above the great Nyungwe forest. The guided canopy walk is 160m - 200m long and it takes about 2 hours on the suspended bridge
•
The canopy walk is a guided tour done by persons of 6 years and above. Though a 6-year-old can do the walk, it's advisable that adults always accompany the children. The walk is done all year round, however it's much better and easier in the dry seasons where the walkway is much drier. Dry seasons in Rwanda run from June to September and December to February.

Rwanda tea plantation:
Rwanda’s perfect soils and climates are responsible for creating Tea one of the world’s popular drinks. Tea Plantations can be seen covering the rolling hills of the Country, to create an excruciating contrast with the Blue skies, the clean dirt roads and sunshine. Trips to visit the tea plantations can be organized and they are appropriate for small, groups, families and also children. On the trips, you learn how tea is planted, maintained, harvested and processed to find its way on your table back home. Rwanda has a great number of tea plantations making Tea Rwanda’s largest export. Thus giving you a variety of plantation options to visist. However the ones that are commonly visited are closer to Nyungwe National park that is in Gisakura and Gisovu.

King's Palace
A reconstruction of the traditional royal residence, the King’s Palace is a beautifully-crafted thatched dwelling shaped like a beehive.
In olden times, Nyanza was the heart of Rwanda. According to oral tradition, it was the site of battles and power struggles.
For a long time, the monarchy was mobile, moving the court between various locations. When it eventually settled in one place, Nyanza was the obvious choice. The capital of the kingdom had as many as 2,000 inhabitants, and huts built with the same methods as seen here.
At the back live a few long-horned Inyambo cattle, descended from the king’s herd, whose keepers carefully tend and sing to them, keeping alive a unique tradition.
The elegant cows, derived from the wider Ankole breed, played an important role during ceremonies in honour of the king. They were decorated with rich jewellery, and were taught to listen to a trainer’s songs and follow his movements in a stately parade.
One of the oldest rain forests in Africa, Nyungwe is rich in biodiversity and spectacularly beautiful. The mountainous region is teaming with wildlife, including a small population of chimpanzees as well as 12 other species of primate, including the L’Hoest’s monkey endemic to the Albertine Rift.
