: An Unforgettable Gorilla Trekking Experience

5/5

I had the absolute privilege of going on a gorilla trekking adventure with Golden Rwanda Safaris, and it was truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience! From start to finish, every aspect of the tour was impeccably organized, ensuring a seamless and stress-free journey.

The guides were incredibly knowledgeable, passionate, and professional. Their deep understanding of gorilla behavior, habitat, and conservation efforts added so much value to the trek. They made sure everyone in the group felt safe and comfortable while navigating through the dense forest terrain.

The trek itself was breathtaking. The moment we encountered the gorilla family was indescribable—watching these majestic creatures up close in their natural habitat was both humbling and awe-inspiring. The guides ensured we maintained a respectful distance while allowing us to fully immerse ourselves in the experience.

What stood out most was the company’s commitment to responsible tourism and conservation. Knowing that part of the tour proceeds support local communities and gorilla conservation efforts made the experience even more meaningful.

The meals provided were excellent, offering a perfect blend of comfort and authenticity. Every detail, from transportation to permits, was handled with great care, leaving us free to focus on enjoying the adventure.

I can’t recommend GOLDEN enough to anyone considering a gorilla trekking experience in Rwanda. Their expertise, professionalism, and dedication to sustainability set them apart. This journey will stay with me forever!

Spectacular safari to Rwanda to visit the mountain gorillas and their national parks

5/5

In planning my trip to Rwanda I communicated frequently with Frank Benoit KANYAMUTARA, the Founder/Owner of Golden Rwanda Safaris, who answered my questions thoughtfully and promptly. He put together a 12 day safari that included my priorities of seeing the mountain gorillas and chimpanzees and added so many beautiful sites that I could not have imagined, such as the Nyanza King Palace. With the longer safari, I had time to see so much of Rwanda including a gorilla family in Volcanoes National Park, lions and many other animals in Akagera National Park, the crafts market in Kigali and a local village. My guide Taufique was very knowledgeable about Rwanda and offered me the option of by-passing or adding destinations to the safari, as well as time to relax. He was pleasant, patient, reliable and thoughtful of my interests, especially in selecting a gorilla family that could be reached by a pleasantly challenging trek for me as a 69 year old. The lodging at every stop was outstanding and far exceeded my expectations, including the Hotel Five Volcanoes, the Governor's Residence and the Akagera Lodge. I was very satisfied with my safari to Rwanda and feel that the price was well worth the memories of this extraordinary experience!

I booked a last minute trip with Golden Rwanda Safaris and they promptly arranged everything. My tour guide Taufique was fantastic, he is very patient and did his best for me spot the big 5 Safari animals.
I would definitely recommend Golden Rwanda Safaris and Taufique!

Great responsive tour company

5/5

We booked two nights through Golden Rwanda to visit the gorillas and golden monkeys. I highly recommend booking through them. Sufiane, our driver/guide was prompt to pick us up at the Kigali airport and was very friendly and a safe driver. He helped things run smoothly and made for a memorable experience. The itinerary worked well. We loved the gorillas and monkeys. The Genocide Memorial was good and powerful. Other stops that Sufiane fit in were also enjoyable. Frank booked us at Five Volcanoes Boutique Hotel for our stay and it was a very nice hotel with a comfortable room, good food and friendly employees. Don't hesitate to book!

The most incredible and special time in Rwanda!

5/5

We had an absolutely incredible experience with Golden Rwanda Safaris during our 4-day adventure in Rwanda, with the highlight being the unforgettable gorilla tracking! From the moment we started planning the trip, everything was seamless and perfectly executed.

Frank, who coordinated with us from the very beginning, was incredibly helpful, responsive, and went above and beyond to make our trip truly special. Since we were celebrating my wife's birthday, Frank helped plan a surprise, adding thoughtful touches throughout our stay. His flexibility with the itinerary ensured we got the most out of every moment, and it made the whole experience feel tailored just for us.

Our guide, Taufeeq, made the journey even more enjoyable. His deep knowledge of the region, wildlife, and culture, combined with his friendly and professional attitude, ensured we had an amazing time. He took care of every detail, making sure we were comfortable and well-prepared, especially for the gorilla tracking—an experience we’ll never forget!

Golden Rwanda Safaris continuously impressed us with their exceptional service and personal touch at every step. If you're planning a trip to Rwanda, we can’t recommend them enough. Thank you, Frank, Taufeeq, and the entire team for making this trip and birthday celebration so memorable!
