Lifetime Experience
My wife and I, mid sixties, have done a wonderful trip to Rwanda with Gorilla Trek Africa. The idea was to see the gorillas and that was done to our absolute satisfaction. Nicholas was always very responsive and full of good ideas while I was organising the trip. Enos, our driver/guide, was most knowledgeable and helpful. We always felt safe and comfortable with him. I would not hesitate to recommend this tour operator.

Incredible experience
Nicholas was ALWAYS available to answer, and assist with, any and all of our questions and concerns! The service we received from him was excellent!
Patrick was a great guide, very informative and easy to understand and travel with. He helped to make those long drives as enjoyable as possible and went out of his way to accommodate o ur needs.
We had a great experience in Kibale and our guide Jessica was fun and professional. She explained things and assisted us through our journey with the chimps.
Our adventure in Bwindi with the gorillas was also a once in a lifetime experience, but I was disappointed in the guides. Not once did they offer an assist, or helping hand, as we trekked through the mud and hilly terrain. Several times we had to call out to them, because we weren't sure which path to follow. They were not informative or very friendly. Aside from that, this was still an awesome adventure!
Our walk to the village in Rwanda was very nice, as was our tour in the city. Our visit to the Rwanda Genocide Memorial was memorable and informative. All of our accomodations were great, especially in Rwanda!
If I were to do it again, I would do my homework better and try to avoid so much travel time each day. I didn't realize how many hours we would be spending in the car. An extra couple of days would definitely have made this trip even better!
Thanks Rwandagorilla, aka Gorilla Trek Africa, for a superb adventure!
