Emile was knowledgeable, friendly, and entertaining.
We had 3-day safari to Akagera National park with Emile at Lion Safaris as our guide. Emile was knowledgeable, friendly, and entertaining. The safari experience was beyond our expectations with big 5 sightings and so much more. The accommodations at Ruzizi were also do much more than expected. We were serenaded by the hippos our night which only added to the experience. We highly recommend Emile to other travelers looking for a Rwanda safari adventure.

They were just great, doing everything you needed and so much more.
Lion Safaris was great! From the moment they picked me up at the airport until the moment they dropped me off at the end of my trip, they made sure that I had everything I needed and that I had the best experience imaginable. They were very knowledgeable about Rwanda and constantly had more information to share as well as answers to any questions I asked. And let’s not forget to mention how insane it was to be 10 feet away from a mountain gorilla.

Epic - Big 5 ticked off
From the 1st contact Emile, was helpful and help us choose what was good for us, and especially have two young boys it was key to keep them involved. We had several game drives and managed to see a different animal on each occasion, and eventually saw the parks big 5, truly amazing.
Lion & Emile are great hosts and go that extra bit further to ensure you enjoy your stay,

You could not ask for a better guide than Emile!
We were connected to Lion Safaris through a conference and the Rwanda visitors' bureau, but really hit the jackpot with our guide Emile. He contacted us before we arrived to let us know what to expect and to provide some tips for our safari. He arrived early and was driving an awesome safari vehicle with a pop-up top. On the drive to Akagera National Park from Kigali, Emile told us all about Rwanda's history and culture and answered all the questions we had along the way. He was very familiar with the park, as he was previously a park ranger, and knew exactly where to take us to see the animals on our wish list. We had an amazing day enjoying the beauty of Rwanda! Emile was very accommodating, as I took lots of photos, and our safari included a nice lunch in the park. It was a perfect experience, and I would absolutely recommend booking with Lion Safaris!

Best guide in Rwanda
Highly professional and well organised tour from Lion Safaris and Emille our guide. Emille dealt with us for months in advance while we planned our Gorilla Trekking tour. Never skipped a beat throughout the entire tour and always aligned every recommendation according to the budget proposed. Couldn’t recommend Emille and Lion Safaris enough! Thank you for being so great.

Great option!
Very knowledgeable, professional, flexible tour operator! Everything went as planned. After our trip, we recommended them to friends who also had a great experience. A small business operation, but great attention to detail and service!

Emile knows where to find the wildlife in Rwanda!
My husband and I had a thoroughly wonderful time with Emile. He is a friendly, amicable, knowledgable guy and we had a fun time touring around Rwanda and Akegera. Lion Safaris worked with us to make our safari exactly as we wanted it, and even helped us with some last-minute changes. I would recommend this experience to anyone looking for an excellent guide and great service.
