About
Founded in 2012 and based in Kigali, Birding and Educational Tours Ltd is a Rwanda-headquartered company specializing in birdwatching, primate-tracking, and cultural-educational tours. The core program runs across Rwanda's signature sites — Nyungwe Forest for Albertine Rift endemics, the bird-rich Akagera savannah, and the Volcanoes National Park gorilla habitat — and extends across East Africa into Uganda, Kenya, Tanzania, and Burundi, with further departures to Senegal and Botswana.
Trips frequently combine birding with mountain-gorilla tracking and historical-educational components, reflecting the company's broader operating model. Target species include Albertine Rift specialties such as Red-collared Babbler, Handsome Spurfowl, and Ruwenzori Turaco, alongside the wider East African list.
