Packing for safari is a welcome instance when practical and playful fashion intersect. At Singita Kwitonda Lodge, situated on the edge of Volcanoes National Park, dress for sundowners in a palette that suits not only the natural shades of Rwanda‘s mountainous, forested landscape but also the property’s interiors, which just expanded across three new suites. Terra-cotta brickwork, woven ceilings, and decorative pottery have all been sourced from local artisans, while an on-site nursery, vegetable garden, and conservation room for pre-gorilla-trekking briefings keep guests rooted in nature. Come nightfall, settle in next to one of the roaring outdoor fireplaces, dive into the lodge bar’s wine list, and marvel at the sheer serenity of the setting.
