Unforgettable East African Tour Rwanda, Uganda , DRC and Burundi with the best ! New Horizon Africa
Unforgettable East African Tour
Rwanda, Uganda , DRC and Burundi
Rwanda
Our tour started in genocide museum which I thought “ this is gonna be an interesting tour “ depressing but needs to be brought up to avoid another genocide . Nicely done , it followed the inshuti Arts museum where they showcase local artist , interesting Kadt museum in which if the guide is not there it will be boring but he made it better it even includes reptiles seen locally , went to Nyamirambo Women Center where local women mostly single parent exhibit their talents of making baskets , hat, and a lot of handicraft. Milk bar store could be interesting but they don’t have a very friendly reception in that area, also visited Kimironko Market which is interesting and end the day I ask my guide if we can eat real Rwandan food not in the hotel and we end up going to this local street food area with music and people are dancing and having a good time . This is safe place to be .
Bunyoyi lake: boat ride to see birds and the boat guide told us about life of locals in the islands especially the punishment island . Interesting
Golden monkey Trekking : another bonus of coming to this countries are seeing the very cute , playful golden monkey eating bamboo , fern , plants and potatoes . Again trekkers and rangers are very helpful . I have to hire a personal porter to help me on hard surfaces up and down the mountain.
Gorilla Guardian Village for cultural experience was very beautiful which made me feel like I am part of the history and culture . We even did marriage reenactment which made my heart so full and gave me boost of energy after the hard trek. Ellen DeGeneres Campus of Dian Fossey Gorilla Fund is very enducational I wish I have more time to spend here . I have learn to do 5 sounds that Dianne Fosey mimicked the gorilla.
Uganda
Cofee experience from organic planting , drying, roasting to tasting . I even tried to do some of it

Reliable company for a trip to Rwanda!
Incredible tour. I did a chimpanzee trek and a canopy hike in Nyungwe National Park, which was an amazing experience! New Horizon was very good at communication leading up to and on my trip. My guide Emmanuel was wonderful - organizing everything and making sure all went smoothly. As a woman traveling alone, I felt incredibly safe the whole time. I highly recommend using this company when traveling in Rwanda!

Fantastic experience in Rwanda
I am a solo female traveler. Emanuel made me feel very safe while we traveled through Rwanda. My holiday encompassed many types of activities giving me a wonderful overview of Rwanda. Everything was very well organized, totally worth the money, lots of communication. Emanuel was very patient with my many questions and multiple dietary issues to work out for me at the hotels. I would recommend this company. I would like to return to Rwanda.

New Horizon and Emmanuel were fantastic.
I am just back from this trip. I had a wonderful time. I was lucky to be the only one on the tour so I had Emmanuel as my exclusive guide. We toured this amazing country together and I was amazed at the beauty, the friendliness of the people and, considering the history, the positivity of Rwanda. It’s astounding really.
Highlights were visiting the gorilla guardians village, the stunning views of Lake Kevu and despite the subject, visiting Murambi.
If you have already seen gorillas, are not interested in gorillas or feel they should be left in peace, this is the tour to take. You get to see and experience the entire country and you get to hear from a really lovely guide Emmanuel.
Highly recommended.

Stay in Rwanda
I visited Rwanda with this agency. I went to Nyungwe National Park for 4 days. We visited chimpanzees, canopy tracks, imbaraga, umuyove and waterfalls. Bona, The Lake Kivu experience was amazing. Emmanuel, my guide driver, was always on time and I learned a lot from him and his business in tourism. I enjoyed this beautiful country and I highly recommend this travel agency.

Reliable Travel Partners
My first contacts with new horizons and overall experience was fabulous. As this was my first time in Africa, I was nervous about how things would be and excited to see with my eyes wild animals in their natural homes and connecting with new cultures. I was solo and Emmanuel was my driver. He is outstanding and passionate about his county and his job. I was able to trek chimps and Gorillas along with traditional dances at ibyiwacu besides Kigali city tour which was WOW on every step we made as highlights of my trip. Rwanda is so good, caring people, clean and green country wide, very safe to hangout with outstanding customer services from the park rangers, hotels and lodges . I can't thank them enough as everything was customized with my preferences and budget along with copying to the changing conditions and requirements for covid. Thank you so much team,i highly recommend you and will do so in my home town.

Excellent Rwanda Trip
Booked my Rwanda's trip with New Horizons. From the first contacts, the new horizon team was very responsive, flexible and good to customize trips and this contributed to choosing them for my vacation and business in Rwanda. I was impressed with the progress made by this country and their fight against the global virus. Headed to Nyungwe Forest and I did my visit to different museums on the way including incredible cows at the King's Palace. Had my lunch in Butare and did my Canopy Walk in the afternoon.On my second day, I did Chimpanzeess and Colobus Monkeys which were amazing. Lastly, Have enjoyed Lake Kivu with hikes to Napoleon island and hiking & Biking around my Hotel in Kibuye. All I can say is that Rwanda is beautiful and New Horizons are the great partners for Safaris and business in Rwanda, My Nyungwe Forest experience was indeed the best. Highly recommend them.
