Best trip and tour experience ever!
This was the best 2 week trip ever! We travel extensively and we were amazed by this tour company. The owner Frank did a super job customizing our 2 week trip to fit in the Chimpanzee, Colobus, Gorilla, and Golden Monkey Treks, 4 nights in Akagera, and so much more. Our driver guide, Sufiane, was amazing. They worked together to make changes as needed based on our needs. He made sure we could get awesome photos and had a great time. We had fantastic and comfortable accommodations, incredible food, and felt very safe. Using them was the best decision ever. We can't wait to go back!
Amazing customer service
Gorilla and golden monkey trek
Jul 2024 • Solo
I went on a gorilla and golden monkey trek with Golden Rwanda Safaris, both amazing and truly unique experiences with the animals. We were within a few feet of the gorilla family. The 2-3 yr old juvenile gorillas were tussling and climbing trees and vines almost the whole time. The golden monkeys were just beautiful and such fun to watch scampering in forest trees and also on adjacent farmland, digging up and eating potatoes. Frank, the tour operator, was amazing, going above and beyond any company I have ever dealt with.
He had told me that his primary goal is customer service, and he demonstrates this approach beyond any expectations I had. Through many emails and also phone conversations with Frank, he clarified any questions I had regarding the trip and was always there when needed. His professionalism and flexibility were outstanding. He was truly magnanimous on the last day when he personally took me to the airport at 9 AM when it was discovered at the last minute that my flight was re-scheduled for 12 hrs later. He took me back to his office in Kigali and personally saw to it that one of his guides met up with me to tour the city and see more sights we missed the first day before returning me to the airport in the evening. Both my original guide and guide that last day were pleasant, reliable and knowledgeable about Rwanda and the wildlife.
I would highly recommend Golden Rwanda Safaris to anyone. Frank is a true treasure
Trip of a lifetime in Africa
Fantastic 2-week trip in Africa split between Kenya and Rwanda.
Focused mostly on animals.
The trip in Kenya was absolutely marvelous with the assistance of Beverly. We went to Samburu to start then Masai Mara in a conservancy. The hotels selected were absolutely gorgeous especially basecamp leopard hill.
Then we spent 9 days in Rwanda. A country I strongly recommend. People were so welcoming. We were accompanied by Mico our guide who made his best to satisfy our requests and needs. We spent a lot of time together driving and it was very entertaining.
The hotels were great. The highlight was definitely the gorilla trekking.
We spent 2 nights in Kigali and it is worth it. I could have spent more time there.
I think it is important to specify your briefing and needs ahead to make sure the trip is what you want. In Rwanda there is a lot to see also from a historical point of view.
The only thing I would have liked is to discover more things in Kigali beyond touristic places. For example, there are a lot of craftsmanship workshops to support women empowerment that I would have liked to explore.
Overall a fantastic trip.
This company is the one to use for any tours in Rwanda.
I recently used Golden Rwanda Safaris for my mountain gorilla and golden monkey treks. Frank quickly answered my initial inquiry and was very helpful planning and customizing my trip, as well as answering my questions. Before I left home, I knew I was in good hands for this trip.
Muhamed contacted me before I arrived and met me at the airport. He was my guide for the entire trip to make sure I had an exceptional experience. He even picked the best porters and group for my ability level during the gorilla trek. Muhamed is a top-notch guide.
I highly recommend Golden Rwanda Safaris as the pinnacle tour company for any Rwandan tours.
Wonderful guide and unbelievable experience!
For our honeymoon, we went on an 6 day experience with Golden Rwanda Safaris including a Gorilla Trek, a Golden Monkey trek, a Chimpanzee Trek, a Colobus Monkey trek and numerous other activities and it was FANTASTIC!
Eric was a wonderful guide! Super knowledgeable about the area, very professional and enjoyable to spend time with. He was always organized and right on time with a big smile on his face.
Our accommodations were great, much more luxurious than we were expecting for the price. The food was also delicious, particularly our stop at a local cafe on the way to a destination.
The real highlight, no surprise, was the gorillas. I ruptured my Achilles earlier in the year and Eric took special care to get us in an "Easy" hike, which was greatly appreciated. It is impossible to describe in words what spending an hour with the gorillas feels like, other than "unbelievable". We feel lucky beyond words.
Thank you Eric and Golden Rwanda Safaris!
