Par Excellence!
Right from the inquiry to the actual tour, everything was very smooth - I found this tour company to be very communicative and responsive. They answered all my queries with patience. I landed at odd hour in middle of the night, my tour guide Richard Ngabo was waiting outside the arrivals for me - he displayed lot of enthusiasm in welcoming me even at that odd hour. Over next 2 days I travelled with Richard to see the sights in the city followed by Chimpanzee tracking and Canopy Walk at Nyungwe Forest National Park. Richard again was very patient in answering various queries and was very proactive in sharing various insights about Rwanda and the sights we were seeing. I had a great time with Richard and made some wonderful memories - would highly recommend him to anyone traveling to Rwanda. Also highly recommend Hermosa Tours for their professional services

Best pure play tourism operator East Africa
I had the opportunity to travel to Rwanda with Hermosa life Tours during our family parental leave in Africa in Nov 2024- Jan 2025,
I can attest that Orest's team at Hermosa life Tours is a consummate professional above all else.
For the past couple of years, I learned that this team are naturally a leading tourism pure play operator in any team setting.
I also learned to trust their offerings ever since our first adventure with Hermosa hiking Bisoke Mountain in the fall of 2020.
As a team of 11 guests, during a global pandemic relying on their destination packages advise & suggestions was very key as they are very detail oriented in this fast paced industry. Their team's positive and supportive attitude is that of a winner.

3-Day Akagera National Park Safari & Golden Monkey Trek THE TRIP OF OUR LIFE
Our 3-day tour was INCREDIBLE! Akagera National Park is indeed a stunning destination with its diverse wildlife and beautiful landscapes. Pairing it with a Golden Monkey Trek made the experience even more special.
Our tour guide, Damascene, was so kind and knowledgeable. With 10 years of experience, it’s no surprise that he knew everything and made us feel at home. His kindness, knowledge, and ability to accommodate our requests greatly enhanced our time in Rwanda.
For anyone planning a similar adventure, I highly recommend requesting Damascene as your tour guide. His expertise and hospitality will surely make your experience unforgettable. Thank me later!

Amazing Rwanda Trip
Our trip to Rwanda was amazing, mostly due to our incredible guide, Pacific. He was very knowledgeable about every aspect of our trip—the history of Rwanda including the genocide, the specifics about chimpanzees, the sad saga of the gorillas, the nuances of the animals we saw on our safari, etc. Our itinerary was well thought out. We saw the chimpanzees and then the gorillas. The accommodations were excellent. We finished our trip with a safari. We hope to come back with our adult children and will definitely use Hermosa again. They were super responsive during our planning stage and also very flexible. We suggested modifications to our itinerary and they easily accommodated. We could not have been more impressed or pleased with Hermosa. We HIGHLY RECOMMEND THEM!! Definitely ask for our Guide, Pacific.

Hermosa Life Tours and Travel is Awesome!!
Hermosa Life Tours and Travel is amazing and they took very good care of 6 of us during our once in a life time trip! You don’t have to look for another company because this is the one! Oreste, Yvonne and her team are incredible. They provided all the information we needed before our 7-day ape trekking adventure. We requested distilled water for my husband allergy and they got it.
Due to our flight cancellation from US to Brussels, 5 of us were rebooked last minute to 3 different flights. Our amazing guide, Pacci/Pacifique went to the airport and picked us up three different times with a big smile even though the last flight arrived at 2 am. Four checked-in suitcases were lost. However, Yvonne and Pacci got out of their way to get our suitcases delivered to our hotel the day before our gorilla trekking so we could hike with their proper hiking gear.
Pacci is a safe, punctual, knowledgeable, reliable and pleasant guide/driver. We felt safe and enjoyed his company very much. He gave us friendly reminders to ensure that we have proper gear. Please ask for him as your guide.
We cannot thank Hermosa enough for their excellent service!

Excellent service
I travelled to Rwanda for work but did not want to leave the country without doing a Kigali city tour and visit the famous Volcano National Park - home to the famous mountain gorillas, golden monkeys and the resting place of Dian Fossey. I booked Hermosa travels on short notice and had a wonderful experience throughout. My Guide Nr. Bosco was a wonderful young man, wonderfully informed and well read. All went very well from my Kigali day to travel to the park, guides, hiking etc

Another Excellent Trip
My wife and I went with Hermosa in 2024 when we did the Gorilla Trek and had a fantastic experience with them so when we decided to go again in 2025 there was never any doubt that we would be using Hermosa yet again. Once more they were an absolute delight, a company I have full confidence in which counts for so much when booking a holiday. I was assisted all the way by Yvonne and Oreste, both of them responded instantly to any questions I had and they made sure everything was absolutely perfect. Our driver/guide was Augustin, who went above and beyond to make sure we had a fabulous time. Hermosa are the sort of company who take great pride in their work and who's first thought is to make sure that the customer is completely satisfied. Whether it be communication, service, reliability or the whole holiday, Hermosa make certain that the customer is looked after and has a marvellous time.
