How it works

When the drive to a national park would take too much of a short trip, the concierge can arrange a helicopter transfer on request, so a park visit and a night back at the villa fit in the same trip.

Availability, routes, weather limits and the fee depend on the operator and the day, so every detail is confirmed before you confirm, and nothing is booked until you say yes. The concierge plans the road transfer at each end, from the villa to the departure point and back.

Good to know

For a larger group, several villas can be booked together, and the concierge arranges it. An invoice in your company's name is available on request. Short stays only: the villas receive guests for holidays, trips and celebrations.

Arranged by your concierge

The concierge looks after the rest, including a private driver, a Nyungwe trip and an Akagera safari day, and quotes each item before you confirm. The concierge stays in touch before you arrive and during your stay.
