Best guide and tour operator there is!
Perfect trip, all satisfying and the guide could not be better! Been traveling with this company several years in a row and can not express how much I enjoy having Barack (tour guide) with us. He does the little extra every single time!

Professional and provided a wonderful experience
We engaged Rwindi Voyage for our gorilla trekking at Mgahinga, and we were assigned to Laban. Our communication started on WhatsApp and was smooth throughout. When we finally met Laban, he turned out to be such a wonderful person and accommodated all our requests—even showing us the community school where he teaches and arranging a coffee experience because he noticed how much our group enjoys coffee during the trip.
We also met Baraka, who was the first person I communicated with before being assigned to Laban; he was also very nice to deal with and a very polite person. Both of them personally drove us back from Uganda to Rwanda and saw us off at the airport.
The gorilla trekking experience itself was wonderful—we were lucky and managed to see the gorilla family within an hour of trekking. Apparently, we are the first Malaysian group to do this trek at Mgahinga National Park. We truly enjoyed our time with the gorillas.
Overall, it was a great experience with them—truly great people.

Unforgettable Gorilla Trekking Experience with Expedition Rwindi Voyage!
Our recent gorilla trekking tour with Expedition Rwindi Voyage was nothing short of extraordinary! From start to finish, the entire experience was seamless, professional, and deeply memorable.
A huge shoutout to our incredible guide and driver, Baraka, who truly made the trip exceptional. Baraka was not only highly knowledgeable about the region, wildlife, and local culture, but also warm, patient, and attentive throughout.
The trek itself was awe-inspiring—coming face-to-face with a gorilla family in their natural habitat is a life-changing experience. The logistics were perfectly arranged, and the team ensured we were well-prepared, comfortable, and respectful of the environment and the animals.
If you’re considering gorilla trekking in the region, don’t hesitate to book with Expedition Rwindi Voyage. And if you’re lucky enough to have Baraka as your guide, you’re in for an unforgettable adventure. We can’t recommend them highly enough!

Ambitious, skilled and motivated
We went for game drive in akagera and it was among the best safaris I ever had! The tour was well organized and everything went smoothly and easily;
We even spontaneously rescheduled our tour within the NP after request

Wonderful operator thats always on time.
Had a great experience with Baraka as our driver and he always had enough water and snacks. He was always 15 minutes early and would highly reccomend him and Expedition Rwindi Voyage. We were only there for a short amount of time and was very impressed with the tour company, Rwanda as a very clean and productive country and the once in a life time trek to see the endangered mountain gorillas. Amazing coffee too.

Three out of big 5 + 2 great tour guides = 5 stars!
I did the Akegera National Park 1 day tour and loved it! Two tour guides took me for a private tour to Akegera from Kigali in a pop up roof 4x4. They were both lovely, interesting to chat to and were really committed to finding the best sightings of animals. We saw lots of 3 of the big 5 plus loads of other animals which I was happy with but apparently that counts as a less exciting than usual day. The highlight was definitely the boat trip where I saw some beautiful elephants bathing and eating in the water close up. Thanks for the tour!

The best experience possible
Everything went smoothly since the moment I asked for a quote on the website. Barack responded almost immediately and his emails were always very sincere. I asked a lot of question about the tour and payment and everything was explained to my satisfaction... sometimes even before I managed to ask.
My trip to Akagera National Park started exactly on time, as we agreed. I was picked up at my hotel in Kigali and I enjoyed the drive to the park with a stop for breakfast at the nice lodge. My guides Lydia and Gerard (I am very sorry if I messed up your name) even taught me a few words in kinyarwanda, and I do remember them until today, so they have really done a wonderful job. The morning was rainy, but the weather was gradually improving and we managed to see a lot... lions, elephants, giraffes, zebras, a lot of antilpes and monkeys. We crossed the whole park from the south to the north and back. I am really glad I also joined the boat trip where we have seen hippos, crocodiles and hundreds of bird species. We had a great conversation during the day and I have learned a lot about animals and Rwanda. On the way back to Kigali they were so nice, that we stop at couple of stores for me to buy coffee.
This was definitely one of the best experiences I ever had. Rwanda is really worth a visit and the people there are soooo nice. I strongly recommend Expedition Rwindi Voyage, the whole team is very professional and lovely.
Murakoze Lydia, Gerard, Barack and the whole team

Stole from us
We went on this tour with Ken and Barack in January. We sent them money for the Gorilla Deposits in advance and when we arrived they said the government had stolen our money. They story didn't add up, and they promised they would pay us back, but in the meantime we had to buy new permits. Having traveled so far, what else could we do?
In the end, they stole our deposit. I highly recommend finding a different operator with a longer history of reviews.
The gorilla trekking itself was incredible.
Jacqueline who organized our trekking and Barrack were both super efficient and friendly.
The gorilla trekking was an unusual an unforgettable experience. The walk has some rough patches so come prepared with good boots and protective clothing. But the likelhood of finding gorillas with a good ranger is high and if you are lucky with the weather it is definitely worth the cost
