Trekking in Rwanda 'best holiday'


One comedian has spoken about how his best ever holiday was spent trekking in Rwanda.

Sean Hughes told the Independent that he thoroughly enjoyed his time in the African nation, particularly trekking into the jungle to see the gorillas.

"One of them touched me which they're not supposed to - but it wasn't frightening," he stated.

Mr Hughes went on to say that he would "happily go every year" if he was given the chance, adding that his ideal break would be anywhere that he could see gorillas or monkeys.

He also shared some travelling tips, particularly for people travelling alone. He recommended taking a magazine or book when you go out for a meal on your own.

The stand-up comedian is well-known for his role as a team captain on Never Mind the Buzzcocks but has also toured extensively both in the UK, appeared in several episodes of The Last Detective and voiced a part in children's television show Rubbadubbers.
