- THE HEART OF SIGHTS TRAVEL -
Visionary Founder - Safari Expert - Women’s Empowerment
Hello, I’m Catherine, the founder of Sights Travel. I started this company with a simple dream to share my deep love for Kenya’s wildlife, culture, and communities through unforgettable safari experiences. As a proudly women-owned safari company, we are certified by WeConnect International USA, and I am honoured to lead a team that shares my passion for creating meaningful journeys.
For me, safaris are not just about exploring Kenya’s breath taking landscapes they’re about travelling with purpose. At Sights Travel, sustainability is at the heart of everything we do. Every journey is designed to support conservation efforts and protect the natural environment that makes Africa so special.
As a strong advocate for women’s empowerment, I’ve made it my mission to ensure women are part of every step of this journey. Today, 80% of our staff are women, and we proudly partner with women-run lodges and local artisans, helping to create opportunities and transform lives.
When you travel with Sights Travel, you’re not only experiencing the very best of Africa, you’re also contributing to a more sustainable and equitable future.

Frequently Asked Questions
Enhance your Rwanda safari trip by staying in the finest luxury lodges, where impeccable service and unrivalled local knowledge create an unforgettable experience.
What makes Rwanda an ideal safari destination?
Rwanda—known as the “Land of a Thousand Hills”—offers breathtaking scenery, rich biodiversity, and a vibrant culture. Highlights include gorilla trekking in Volcanoes National Park, wildlife drives in Akagera, primate encounters in Nyungwe Forest, and scenic vistas at Lake Kivu
When is the best time to visit Rwanda?
The prime safari periods are during the dry seasons: June to September and December to February, which offer warm, manageable conditions ideal for gorilla trekking and wildlife viewing.
However, March to May and October to November bring beautiful lush landscapes, fewer tourists, discounted gorilla permits, and excellent birdwatching opportunities—making it a great choice for budget-conscious or nature-focused travellers.
Which national parks are featured in Rwanda itineraries?
Volcanoes National Park: Famous for gorilla trekking and golden monkey sightings
Nyungwe Forest National Park: A montane rainforest home to chimpanzees, colobus monkeys, over 300 bird species, and a canopy walkway.
Akagera National Park: Rwanda’s savannah offering a “Big Five” game drive experience amid lakes, wetlands, and woodlands.
What activities can travellers enjoy in Rwanda beyond wildlife safaris?
Cultural Encounters: Visit local villages, enjoy traditional dance performances, and learn about Rwanda’s post‑genocide recovery.
Adventure Activities: Hike Mount Bisoke, kayak on Lake Kivu, cycle through the countryside, or explore waterfalls and scenic viewpoints like Burera and Ruhondo.
Can I customise my safari itinerary?
Absolutely—you can personalise your experience with Sights Travel & Tours. Whether you’re looking for wildlife, cultural immersion, or wilderness exploration, every detail can be tailored to suit your preferences.
