Professional and Trustworthy
5/5

The moment I contacted Golden Rwanda Safaris I knew I would be in good hands. Even though there was a significant time difference Frank replied to my emails almost immediately. He was able to fully customize my trip the day I inquired. He was able to include all my desired activities and others I hadn't even considered (thanks for Mount Bisoke - I made it to the top!) Frank was more than helpful and patient as we sorted out the payment process and kept in contact with me the entire time via his personal WhatsApp. I've never had such great communication from a tour company. As a solo female traveller I was comforted to know I would have a female guide with me for my 10 day trip. Joana was an incredible guide, she took care of me the entire trip and I trusted her completely. From scheduling bathroom stops, packed lunches and day tours she organized everything behind the scenes without me having to worry about anything. She was always prompt and had a wealth of information to share about Rwanda, which she is very passionate about. I cannot recommend this tour company more highly.

I cannot say enough good things about Golden Safaris. The service was Impeccable, their staff extremely kind and accommodating. We got to see most animals, and the driver knew exactly how to spot them. It was really excellent!

Fantastic 4-day tour that I will never forget.
5/5

My whole experience was fantastic. I must admit I was a little nervous when first booking because it was my first time in Africa and had no idea about how the tour would go.
The communication prior to my arrival was great, they always responded quickly.
Once I arrived, my driver picked me up from the hotel and from the start he was so friendly and helpful. I learned a lot about Rwanda from him, and got to know him pretty well. I had an issue with the PCR test they did at the airport (necessary for the parks), and he managed to resolve it for me while we were driving.
The tour ran extremely smoothly, there were no issues at all. The hotels were very good, and all the tours were of course fantastic.
I really enjoyed the drive to Nyungwe and Volcanoes, as I got to see a lot of the Rwandan countryside. It is a beautiful country and I feel I got a really good glimpse of it, thanks to Golden Rwanda!

5/5

We reserved a one-day trip to the national park. It was really fantastic. We saw zebras, giraffes, birds, hippos, crocodiles, buffalos, elephants, a leopard, and many other animals. The driver was really nice and experienced. We really enjoyed the tour, and I am willing to re-visit Golden Rwanda Safaris when I will re-visit Rwanda.

We spent the whole day on safari and it was an amazing and unforgettable day for us.

Golden Rwanda provided an unforgettable experience in a beautiful country!
5/5

We had a great experience with Golden Rwanda. First of all, the communication ahead of the trip (via email) was smooth, quick and efficient. Frank was always very responsive, and provided an experience tailored to our needs. He was able to arrange everything for us on a relatively short notice. Upon arrival in Rwanda, we felt very well taken care of by our guide Joana. Unfortunately, one of our bags did not arrive when we landed, and she made sure that we got it still the following day, before we left Kigali. In that sense, we were barely affected as we then had everything we needed for the rest of the trip, particularly the hikes. Throughout the entire travels, Joana was a great host and always offered flexibility to respond to our needs. Overall, we had an amazing experience in this beautiful country, and we appreciated not only seeing all the breathtaking beauty it has to offer but also learning more about the history and the impressive development that has taken place there in recent years, to which our guide also provided a lot of information. Our favorite part was definitely the Volcano National Park - an unforgettable experience, in particular seeing the mountain gorillas and visiting the Dian Fossy Gorilla Fund (Museum) - a must visit! Another personal highlight was the great food, in particular the soups! :D Rwanda is a top spot for all soup lovers ;) We will definitely be back sooner or later and would highly recommend everyone to visit!

Excellent experience
5/5

Jean picked me up at 5am in the hotel. We had a smooth drive to the Akagera NP for a game drive. We stopped for coffee and a nice breakfast buffet, and then the game drive. We saw many animals. Jean was a great driver and also great at spotting animals. We had great conversation in the car too. Highly recommend.

Amazing Safari Experience
5/5

We - my wife and I - had an amazing three days safari in the Akagera Park (Rwanda). Our Tour Guide Jean Marie arranged extraordinary encounters with the big five, a lot of birds and other animals and the amzing landscape. His foresight made the trip most comfortable with many insights on culture, nature and history. The boat trip and the night game drive were highligts of our stay. We fully enjoyed the three days and the transfer services from the hotel and to the airport.
We highly recommend the services of Golden Rwanda Safari.

Wonderful tour experience.
5/5

We went on a 1 day tour to Akagera national park. Frank was very helpful and responsive in setting up the tour. Our tour guide Jean Claude was fantastic, he was very friendly and knowledgable and we had a great time seeing animals in the park. We saw many rhinos, hippos, giraffes, zebras, and baboons. The tour was reasonably priced as well. I would highly recommend Golden Rwanda Safaris to anyone traveling to Rwanda!
