  SITEMAP.XML — heirloomsafaris.com
  Generated: 2026-07-18 (updated 2026-07-28: added missing Rwanda trip pages)
  Coverage: Uganda, Kenya, Tanzania, Burundi, South Sudan
  Strategy: Priority + changefreq tuned for SEO & crawl budget
  ============================================================

  PRIORITY SCALE (0.0 – 1.0):
    1.0  → Homepage (highest crawl priority)
    0.9  → Core conversion pages (booking, contact, destination hubs, best-seller tours)
    0.8  → Tour product pages (direct revenue pages)
    0.7  → Supporting content (blog, gallery, about)
    0.3  → Legal/utility pages (privacy, terms)

  CHANGEFREQ GUIDE:
    daily    → Blog index (new posts expected regularly)
    weekly   → Tour pages, destination pages (prices/availability change)
    monthly  → About, gallery, static content
    yearly   → Legal pages (rarely change)

  MAINTENANCE NOTES:
  - Update <lastmod> dates whenever a page content changes
  - Add new tour pages under the appropriate country section
  - Remove pages that are 301-redirected or deleted
  - Resubmit to Google Search Console after every batch update

       RWANDA TOURS
       [1, 3, 4, 6, 9, 10, 11, 12, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28]

       NOTE ON ID COLLISIONS: rw.json also contains ids 2, 5, 7, 8, 13
       which duplicate ids already used by Uganda/Kenya/Tanzania trips
       below (e.g. id 2 = "Uganda Gorilla Trekking" AND rw.json's
       "Akagera Big Five Safari"). Since the URL pattern is /trips/{id}
       with no country segment, these Rwanda trips cannot be safely
       added without creating duplicate <loc> entries pointing to two
       different tour pages. They have been intentionally omitted —
       flag this ID conflict with the dev team so Rwanda trips 2, 5, 7,
       8 and 13 get their own unique, crawlable URLs.
