Great two day tour from Kigali!
5/5

I did an unforgettable 2-day Golden Monkey (Volcanoes NP) and Gorilla Trekking (Bwindi) Tour. The booking process was simple and all my questions were answered quickly. Payment process was exceptionally good, as the payment provider even allowed transferring the downpayment via PayPal and the remaining balance could be payed in Euro. Contact with the guide/ driver was initiated the evening before the tour - which seemed a bit close to the start but worked out fine. My guide/ driver (Farouk) is very experienced, considerate and an excellent driver - even in the challenging road conditions during raining season. I highly suggest this company, tour and guide.

Do not hesitate to book with Frena
5/5

I had a wonderful 3 day experience with Frena. My initial communication was with Fred who was very quick to answer any inquiries. I had a seamless pickup from my hotel in Kigali and then went to both Bwindi and Volcano National Park to see the gorillas and golden monkeys. Accommodation and food was great. My guide and driver Ronald, was very friendly and knowledgeable and made me feel safe during the 3 day trip. He helped me take photos during the trip and also graciously made a couple of extra stops to try jackfruit and buy coffee beans. Highly recommend booking with Frena for a great travel experience!

Frena was very responsive and replied to each of my requests immediately.
5/5

Frena Adventures provided great service. Ronald, my driver, was friendly and helpful, and a safe driver. He was very ready to talk about any subject, which is helpful for passing the time in the car.

I went to Nyungwe NP in Rwanda and had a very good trip. Frena took care of everything. I only had to pay for drinks. I saw great wildlife.

Fantastic tour
5/5

We managed to book a last minute tour to Murchison Falls National Park for two days and it was perfect.

Our guide picked us up from the hotel and drove us to the park. There we got to do a boat tour and see hippos and elefants.

Then we went to a game ride and saw buffalos, oribis, giraffes, lions and elefants.

On the next morning we saw more animals and visited the Rhino sanctuary.

I couldn't be happier, our tour was perfect! Thank you!

Very good experience
5/5

We did 4 day gorilla trekking in Uganda tour and it was great! Our guide Ronald was friendly. There was a minor problem with the hotel in Uganda but they went overboard and made sure we had a great experience in Rwanda. The whole trip was really memorable to us

Amazing animals in an amazing environment
5/5

This tour was an amazing experience form the start till the end. Starting in Akagera we had a great time in Akagera NP with lions, elephants, zebras, impalas, giraffes and one leopard. At lake Ihema we observed lots of birds, crocodiles and hippos.
In the mountains of Bwindi NP we had a "once in a lifetime" encounter with a gorilla family, already shortly after we entered the rainforest. It was just breathtaking to visit these powerful creatures in their natural environment. The preparations with hiking boots as well as the rain protection clothes really paid-off.
The organization of Frena Adventures was perfect, our guide Ronald a considerate partner in all situations. The lodges were simply wow and the service always on top.
If you do this tour it is recommended to apply for an East Africa visa in advance since this will shorten your time at the border between Ruanda and Uganda.
All in all we are very happy that we did this tour with the team of Frena Adventures!
Heike, Felix and Kai

Great and efficient gorilla trekking
5/5

This tour was exactly what we were looking for!
We wanted an efficient and smooth trip to see the gorillas up close, so we flew into Kigali (Rwanda) enabling us to see this amazing (and safe) country. However, Gorilla trekking in Uganda is both cheaper (~50% of permits in Rwanda) and offer multiple different opportunities to be sure you see them, but that does not mean you need to fly in and out of Uganda. Highly recommend flying to Kigali and driving the 2-3 hours across the border.
Frena Adventures delivered on all metrics; airport pickup/drop off. Nice driving in a decent car, nice lodges with good food (catering for gluten intolerant meals).
Our guide, Roland, made the many hours in the car feel safe and enjoyable. Thank you for everything - highly recommended for other tourists interested in Gorilla trekking!

Truly an unforgettable experience
5/5

This has been my best trip ever, and that’s also thanks to my lovely guide Ronald. Form the pickup day, everything ran super smoothly, the trip organisation was perfect and Ronald did everything he could to make my journey comfortable, fun and enjoyable. I can recommend this to anyone and I myself hope I can go on more trips with Ronald and Frena Adventures again. Thank you so much for this wonderful experience!
