Volcanoes Safaris is delighted to share a short film celebrating twenty years of gorilla conservation and ecotourism at Virunga Lodge, as well as a new photo essay about the first 25 years of Volcanoes Safaris.
To celebrate Virunga Lodge’s 20 year journey, Prosper Uwingeli the Chief Park Warden of Volcanoes National Park and Praveen Moman, Founder Volcanoes Safaris, hosted an informal conversation on gorilla conservation and ecotourism with key conservation partners from the region in April 2024.
We thank Rwanda Development Board, our conservation partners, The Mayor of Burera district, Local government executives, Rwanda Chamber of Tourism and Rwanda Tour and Travel Association, the US Embassy, neighbours, and staff for making this a thoughtful and productive event.

Volcanoes Safaris is also delighted to share a new photo essay, “The Journey of the First 25 Years 1997-2022.” In this essay, Praveen Moman, the Founder Volcanoes Safaris, navigates his past to tell the story of how Volcanoes Safaris became the pioneer of gorilla and chimpanzee ecotourism in Uganda and Rwanda.
