Amazing experience
The safari was amazing, our guide, Jonas, did an incredible job finding the animals and providing explanations, 10/10 for him. Food was also delicious and portions were more than enough, they even had vegan option. Accommodation was also very nice. However, previously to the safari, during the payment day, they forgot that one of us will do the payment in euros, and also the credit card terminal didn't work, so we had a little trouble. Also, our group was of 7 people, and we paid 4 different prices, so always try to negotiate.

Knowledgeable, caring, reliable
We planned this Safari trip a month before we fly to Tanzania. We were provided personalized quote and detailed Itinerary through emails. Thanks to Caroline, all schedules and policies were explained well; and the effective communications made the reservation process smooth and professional.
During this 6-days safari trip, all activities and routines were arranged reasonably; from relaxing to wild and back to relaxing. We modified first day with hot spring swimming as we arrived in Arusha early morning and had a few hours fun time. We met our guide Shafino on day-2 and he was our driver, spotter, encyclopedia and lunch server, and he nailed it! He is a wildlife lover and safari master that he spotted wild animals from miles away and answered all our questions about their behaviors and features. We saw all expected animals on the list and much more beyond. Shafino was also knowledgeable with all birds and plants during the trip. He knows the roads and places to find which animals as it is his second home. He can even also introduce us the history or culture of the local people and towns. We can literally ask him anything about what we see on our way.
The daily schedule for meals and accommodation was we left in early morning after breakfast, had picnic lunch(freshly prepared in the mornings) , and arrived to lodges 1-2 hours before dinner time and thus we had enough time to rest and chill. We had unlimited drinking water and also had complimentary wine, beer and softdrinks in the frige of the car. The whole trip is totally safe and enjoyable.
Every single thing in our experience was unforgettable and amazing. We are so pleasured to do this with Lion King Adventures and Shafino. Thank you!

Leslie was knowledgeable, kind, adventurous, and made sure we saw a LOT of cool animals in all setti
Brenda and Kakasii’s Choice Safari was awesome. They created a safari catered to our specific wants. The price was extremely reasonable, much less than what we anticipated. January is a fantastic time to go. There is a little bit of rain, but it seems to rain in the evenings when you’re asleep and for a short period of time. We strongly recommend going through choice safaris. You will not be disappointed. Shout out to Leslie, our guide.

Friendly, informative, helpful. Abu (& Hermosa Travel) made our trip an absolute delight.
Rwanda is a beautiful country with friendly people and wonderful accommodations. The treks to see the Gorillas and Golden Monkeys the reason for visiting. The guides, porters, and trackers are very professional and the time with these animals was beyond description. But the real highlight turned out to be our guide, Abu. He was effiable, knowledgeable, very prompt, extremely personable, and made sure we had whatever we needed. He treated us as old friends from the moment we met him. He took us on a fabulous walking tour around Kigali. We thoroughly enjoyed our conversation and learning more the country, about him, his upbringing and his family. We were even treated to the opportunity to see his childhood home and the area where he grew up. Abu is an attentive driver, great conversationalist, enthusiastic photographer, and we are happy to consider him a friend - he really made the trip for us. Thank you!!

Everything about the tour was excelent organised and we had an Amazing driver (Manuel) with a lot of experience on Safari that brought us to many great places inside the parks. I definately recommend this company and if we go again for Safari we will definatelly book with them again.

Tanzania is Beautiful
We booked our tour six month before and in all those six month all along Fredy kept on updating us on new amazing tour that we can add although we didn't add all but the ones we add turn out to be more that we expected it was the best and we wish we selected all. We went through low tyre pressure ones at the jungle seems like the road was not so kind to us but on that moment of fear the guide took care of us and made us felt safe while he was fixing It, we. Slept on tented and lodges and mostly of them served us well and organised.
We go back crying to be back again in Tanzania. Superb had organised well out tour I would recommend them.

An Incredible Experience!
This was probably the most amazing experience I have had on a trip. Not only because of the wonderful views and all the animals we got to see, but the agency organized things perfectly, and thanks to our amazing guide Michael we didn’t have to worry about a thing throughout our whole week. Michael really took us on a once in a lifetime trip, he was always on top of everything, his scanning skills are insane, you could really feel he does this because he loves it and he was so keen on showing us and explaining as much as possible. He went out of his way every day to find the best spots, all the unique animals, and give us the full experience of a great safari. The communication was clear all the way through and we felt very comfortable on the trip with this we are grateful to Amshar Serengeti Adventures. Thank you so much Michael for your service!!

Knowledgeable, professional and friendly service provider.
Been on safari 5 times with this company. Always had good experience. They seem knowledgeable about all safari lodges being offered on their site. Offer friendly, unbiased advice. Easy to contact and respond quickly to any queries.
Last occasion had a problem with local agents booking wrong dates before we travelled.... sorted out by Travel Butlers and offered upgraded accomodation at no extra cost..... cannot fault them. Would recommend Travel Butlers to others.

Professional and Trustworthy
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.
