An incredible experience
I visited Akagera with Golden Rwanda and had an incredible experience throughout. Frank communicated clearly and promptly, and was flexible on arrangements. It was very well-priced compared to competitors and the itinerary for Akagera was great to maximise time on game drives.
Taufique was a super guide on the day - very communicative, punctual, patient, and professional. The vehicle was clean, comfortable, and had amenities like a fridge and plugs for charging. Taufique had a great eye for spotting animals, and I was very pleased with what I saw! Meals included were good too

This is nature
I enjoyed 1 day private game drive. It was rather reasonable: $385 each including breakfast and lunch.
Unfortunately, we could see only buffalo among BIG5 from the distance. We could also come across zebra, impala, baboon, giraffe, hippo and crocodile. They said lions and elephants are sermon the day and the day before. Our guide drive said this is nature, animals are not always appear.

Best Rwanda Tour Guide
I highly recomment Golden Rwanda Safaris for your visit to Rwanda! From my booking request, they provided fast responses, helped with any questions, and customized my tour as requested. There was clear communication the whole process and no problems.
My tour guide, Taufique, was passionate, knowledgable, and friendly my entire visit. He really strived to make my visit in Rwanda the best possible! He is one of the best tour guides I have had!

True luxury, excellent organisation and communication, highly reliable and very friendly.
We had a truly great experience from the pickup at the airport to the drop-off on our last day. Everything was perfectly taken care off, the hotels (Governor's Residence in Kigali and Five Volcanoes at the national park) were wonderful and our hikes to see first the gorillas and then the golden monkeys were amazing. Food and service were very good and the little extras such as fresh water bottles in the extremely clean and tidy car, gaiters for the hikes and a foot massage and shoe cleaning after each bike provided for a feeling of luxury. Very good value for money! Would highly recommend choosing this tour operator.

Dream come true!!!
Trekking the mountain gorillas has been a dream of mine since I was a child and Golden Rwanda Safaris exceeded my expectations. I am a solo female traveler and, after speaking to Frank and reading glowing reviews, I had no hesitations about booking this company. I had a female guide, Ingrid, who made sure everything was punctual, safe, and organized. I learned so much about the culture and history of Rwanda from her and she made the trip so special and fun. I was able to spend the first day exploring a bit of Kigali, including the sobering Rwanda Genocide Memorial, which you can’t miss if you travel to Rwanda. The accommodations at Five Volcanoes were luxurious and comfortable and the staff was so kind. I could write a full memoir about the trek itself but suffice it to say that it was genuinely life changing. Spending an hour amongst the gorillas was the single most awe-inspiring experience of my life. Everyone truly cares about the conservation of the environment and these incredible animals, and you can rest assured that all your trekking money goes towards protecting the park. The logistics were all taken care of by Ingrid, who was excited to see me living my dream. Seeing the golden monkeys is also absolutely worth doing – you’re completely surrounded by them and they’re a joy to watch.
Huge thanks to Ingrid and Frank for making this the best Christmas ever – it was worth every penny that I saved. I would recommend Golden Rwanda Safaris a thousand times over to anyone traveling in Rwanda, and plan to book with them again when I return with my mom for more trekking.

Very Professional - Golden Rwanda Safaris
Golden Rwanda Safaris are very professional. They have excellent guides, that are knowledgeable and experienced. They will give you lots of information, and safety is their top priority. Guide Taufique was the best, he was helping other guides in the park as well.

Great experience and good communication with Golden Rwanda
Overall had a great experience with Golden Rwanda. From the initial communication and setting the itinerary to payment, permits, and transportation everything went smoothly. I would use this operator again. Upon airport arrival, to airport drop off 5 days later, everything was seamless and taken care of.
Frank was responsive up until arrival, and Claude our driver for the week aimed to please and nothing was an inconvenience. Highly Recommend.

Beautiful Gorillas, Safari, and Country
I had a really good experience with this tour operator, and had a great guide, Taufique. He always went above and beyond for us, even finding us some of the best fruit in Rwanda, and driving us everywhere. The Gorillas are amazing, the Safari is great, and everything was incredibly smooth even though we booked less than a week before.
