Ringstone Safaris · Uganda, Rwanda, Kenya and TZ

Our Primary destinations: Uganda & Rwanda

While East Africa’s savannahs are legendary, the Albertine Rift is home to Earth’s last remaining mountain gorillas and dense primate kingdoms. We operate our own native naturalist teams in Kampala, Entebbe, Kigali, and Musanze to guarantee direct permit access and personalized guiding.
