This string of 15,000ft volcanoes stretching through Rwanda, Uganda and the Democratic Republic of Congo with sensational views and access to the adjacent Volcanoes National Park. The drive should take around two hours on good roads.

When you arrive, stretch your legs with a gentle stroll around the grounds, taking in some of the stunning views before your first supper in Rwanda and a good sleep before your safari activities kick off tomorrow.

After meeting your guide at the park entrance you will then spend several hours trekking through the dense foliage, spotting other wildlife en route to finding a gorilla family. It's hard work and you'll be walking across steep slopes, but the walk is well, well worth it. Once your guide locates a group you will then have a full hour to sit and watch these majestic creatures - some of our closest cousins - as they go about their daily routine.

Following your time with the mountain gorillas, head back to your luxury lodge and spend some time relaxing over a leisurely dinner as you let the once-in-a-lifetime experience really sink in.

We have organised for you to head back into the rainforest again this morning, this time in search of the region's endemic golden monkeys. These brightly coloured and big-cheeked monkeys are both adorable and agile and, with your guide, you'll spot them swinging from the trees in the forest canopy.

After lunch back at your lodge, this afternoon will be spent learning more about the research programmes at the heart of the region. Start by visiting the grave of world-renowned mountain gorilla researcher Dian Fossey. As well as teaching you more about the incredible research Fossey did, your guide will also introduce you to some of the most scenic spots in the forest.

After a busy day, enjoy a final dinner at your lodge and then sit and soak up the scenery for one last romantic evening on your honeymoon before switching countries tomorrow.

They will transfer you across to Wilson domestic airport and from there you will fly an additional hour and a bit to Ukunda Airstrip near Diani Beach on the Kenya Coast.

You will be met and transferred to your beachfront lodge for the next - more conventional - stage of your Rwanda and Kenyan Coast Honeymoon. Settle into the lodge, and maybe go for a barefoot stroll along the beach before sundowners and a romantic candlelit dinner.

Diani Beach is a great spot to try a number of fun activities, such as snorkelling and dolphin watching boat trips, kitesurfing and kayaking. Alternatively, just soak up the sun on the beautiful beach, and in the evenings enjoy eating out at local restaurants, including one very romantic one in a candlelit cave.

After a last long lunch you will be transferred back to Ukanda Airstrip for the return hop back to Wilson Airport. Transfer across to the international airport in Nairobi and board your overnight flight back to the UK. The flight takes nine hours.
