Best honeymoon we could have asked for!
We had the best best trip with Ken, Jared and Barack. They were so warm and welcoming, it felt like we were on a big family vacation the whole time. Everything went perfectly, the food was delicious and the trips and views were outstanding. We started in Kampala and then visited Queen Elizabeth national park, then Kisoro, then gorillas and Mt Nyiragongo, in Virunga national park, and then last but not least, Kigali. It was incredible. Ken and Jared have such a wealth of knowledge and such great banter that it made even long drives a breeze. Barack met us at the Congo border and helped get our visas and navigate Congo very easily. The Nyiragongo hike was hard but definitely worth it for the views and the awesome lava (literally looked like a boiling pot of soup made of fire), and even the food at the top!! And our last day in Kigali was so powerful and then ended with such a lovely late lunch at the pork joint. We can't thank you enough for making the start to our honeymoon so so memorable!! Can't wait for our next trip back!

Amazing experience
It was a once in a lifetime e preiendes to climb Nyiragongo and sleep on top. Our guide Barack was extremely nice and knowledgeable and made sure we had everything we needed for a perfect trip. Can only highly recommend this tour and the guides!
just passing through town
Top of my bucket list was to see the gorillas in the Congo. It was a dream come true and to make travelling easier we were introduced to Barak who helped us with our visas and get us across the borders with no trouble. He also took myself and my girlfriends to a local market to go shopping which i give him a lot of credit for too. He not only stayed sane, he managed to get us some bargains. We spent a few days with Barak and I found him to be kind, happy, funny and helpful, all with a constant smile which is so nice to be around. I recommend him to anyone travelling to this area!!

Fantastic trip and superb help and organization from Barak
A long held dream to climb mt. Nyiragongo came true thanks to the fantastic assistance and services of Barak at Congo discover safaris! I have traveled with other safaris companies in Uganda and Tanzania, but Barak and his crew surpass the rest. Barak is extremely flexible and supportive and very punctual. In addition he and the rest are incredibly friendly and willing to go out of their way to help you arrange your trip and have the best possible experience. I look forward to traveling more in the DRC with Barak and highly recommend Congo discover safaris to anyone planning a trip to beautiful Goma and DRC! You will have a wonderful time!

unique experience... thank you Barack!
I had a great time in Congo doing the vulcano as well as the gorilla trekking. I can not even say what was more beautiful. Both were simply impressive and well organized. Barack took care of the visa, picked me up from the border, made sure i had a nice place to stay and few good days in Congo. He took me out for lunch in a local restaurant as well as for some beer at night to show me the congolese-way-of-live. Thank you very much. I highly recommend him as a guide

Exciting experience with a flexible and friendly guide, Barack.
Everything we expected and more. Seeing the volcano is a must and doing it with someone as friendly and enthusiastic as Barack made it so much more exciting
Niyragongo Volcano- Breathtaking
I had a great time in Congo, thanks to Barack. He made sure everything was taken care of and his light spirit added a great start to the journey-from taking care of the visa, picking me up from the border, making sure i had a good place to stay and for making Congo feel like home!
I highly recommend him as a guide!

Amazing experience
Barack is a great driver and organizer. With his help we, four people from Israel, had an amazing experience in both Rwanda and Congo. Barack is resourceful and well connected. He helped us with many small details along our 12 days tour.
He demonstrated Can Do attitude and was eager to address all our needs. We all feel like we have earned a new friend.

Best experience in Africa
Baraka is first of all my true friend.
Second of all, he was so kind, lovely and proffesional during my Congo experience.
He took care of everything so that I would not have to worry about a thing.
This experience was way beyond my expectations.
Thanks for unforgettable events in my life.
Joe
