Knowledgeable and Friendly Tour
5/5

Lion safaris' Emile took us for an overnight ride in the Akagera national Park.

It was a great experience and Emile was very knowledgeable about wildlife, nature and geography. We saw many animals on the way and always felt safe.

Amazing safari experience with Lion Safaris!
5/5

We hired Emile and Lion Safaris to take a large group of my family to a safari at Akagera National Park in Rwanda. The group ranged from very young kids through adults and was a very complicated trip with two separate parties meeting up during the visit. Emile and Lion Safaris were amazing and ensured a wonderful experience for everyone. Emile is also VERY knowledgeable about history, culture and wildlife, so his commentary throughout the drive was very interesting and informative. Working with Emile and Lion Safaris was one of, if not THE highlight of our trip to Rwanda and we would highly recommend him and Lion Safaris.

Outstanding Service
5/5

We were in Kigali with a day before our flight home.
Emile Lion was recommended by the young lady at the hotel desk. It was evening and I did not have high hopes for finding a day tour but called Emile.
After making the call, explaining what we were looking for, Emile made the recommendations he thought would interest us.
Per his recommendation, we took a full day trip to Akagera National Park and were very happy we did.
The entire experience was excellent. Last minute accommodation, helpful and informative guide and well kept equipment.
If an when we return to Rwanda we will be sure to book ANY tours with Emile.

Amazing tourism!
5/5

We participated in the rainy season, but luckily it didn't rain. The tour guide was very honest and kind. He was flexible in changing the places we explored depending on the conditions of the day, so we were able to see a lot of elephants. I would like to ask him to guide me again next time.

Who Could Ask for More?
5/5

I hired Lion Safaris for a four-night trip to Akagera National Park (Rwanda), and it was exceptional. I was intent on seeing as much as possible, at a comfortable pace, and Emile delivered. While it can never be guaranteed, I was able to see all of the big five during my visit. I attribute our success to Emile’s extensive knowledge of the park grounds, animal behavior, and patience. I told Emile that, in addition to large mammals, I was interested in the scenery and bird-watching, and he did not disappoint. I saw virtually all corners of the park, and Emile was careful to point out and to identify the various feathered friends that we encountered. The park is truly gorgeous and abundant. Ruzizi and Karenge camps are amazing and worth the splurge. Despite this, I know that, without Emile’s expertise to guide us, the experience would have been lacking. I cannot thank Emile enough for going above and beyond to make my vacation a perfect one.

Emile was an excellent tour guide who guided through Akagera Park. He speaks and understands English very well and had a thorough understanding of the wildlife in the park. I would highly recommend him!

Emile is incredibly knowledgeable and works so hard to make it a great experience!
5/5

Went to Akagera National Park for 2 days with Lion Safaris! Was lucky enough to see lions, elephants, zebras, impalas, hippos, and more. Emile was definitely a large part of ensuring I got to see so many animals! Everything from booking to paying to communications was seamless and made the experience that much better.
