Mesmerizing Journey to Uganda - Thanks to East African Jungle Safaris...
It was a great experience to be so close to nature and becomes more exciting as you have to "earn the experience" by all the efforts that a traveller puts in, which gives more satisfaction. My Kudos to each of the members who has involved to our trip and make the travel such an amazing experience. Should categorically state my thanks to Babylon who was a wonderful guide/driver and was a pleasure to interact with. Very good accommodation and Great food at most of the places.
Its a great place for anybody who is looking for a trip out of box and out of comfort zones but need a sense of accomplishment. Look forward very much to a return visit...

Easy, comfortable, enriching and budget adjusted
Easy, comfortable, enriching and budget adjusted
First of all I have to recommend the travel to Uganda. It is an incredible country, safe with an enormous environmental wealth.
We contact Frena Tour quite late and even so they were able to manage everything we asked.
The communication was always easy and fluid vie e.mail. Was very easy to get an agreement and common understanding.
We did the reservation with a app similar to paypal but used more frequently in Africa and it worked perfectly.
The driver, Willy was totally punctual the first date and he was patient, friendly, respectful and a great guide. Was really a pleasure to do the travel with him.
The car was very comfortable taking into account the long travel by road in the country.
I totally would repeat it with this company and will fully recommend for future trips.

Fantastic tour operator everything was perfect from accommodations, itinerary, and driver/guide.
From start to finish Fred at Frena Adventures was great to communicate with. We were a bunch of three older ladies that went on this trip. Our trip was for the Rwanda gorilla trek and Golden Monkey with a day at Lake Kivu. Our trip dates changed a few times and Fred was able to make all the changes accordingly. There were many questions and concerns and Fred answered everything professionally and timely. We did the mid-range tour. Accommodations were clean, service was great and the food was fantastic. Our driver Ronald was personable, always prompt to pick us up and make sure we got to our activities on time. He was a very careful driver. I would certainly use frena Adventures again and highly recommend them.

Excellent Gorilla trekking experience in Uganda and Rwanda
The entire tour was incredible from start to finish. Very well organized by Fred and perfectly executed with Ronnie, my tour guide and driver. Ronnie was very knowledgeable, courteous and attentive. It was such a pleasure driving through the amazingly beautiful landscape of Uganda and Rwanda with him explaining the lifestyle, culture and history of the region. My stay at the Rushaga lodge in Uganda and the Migano hotel in Rwanda was excellent. The highlight of the entire tour was the Gorilla trekking itself in Bwindi Impenetrable forest - the proximity and interactions with the gorillas and the hike through the forest itself were so exhilarating - excellently arranged by the guides and rangers in Bwindi forest. The Volcanoes Golden Monkey trek was ok. I was comfortably taken to catch my flight out of Kigali airport on time. As a solo female traveller, at all times I felt incredibly safe and comfortable throughout this tour - I would certainly recommend this tour, Ronnie the tour guide and Frena adventures for a well worthwhile and wonderful trip!

Truly memorable trip
I booked a three day Gorilla Trekking / Golden Monkey trip with Frena adventures in late February. It turned out to be an amazing adventure. It was a pleasure working with Fred (my initial contact at Frena) and Rodney (my driver for three days). Fred promptly responded to all my queries as we handled all the logistics /payments and planning of the trip over whatsapp. There were no surprises and things happened exactly as they were described to me.
My driver, Rodney was also outstanding. I was the only traveler on this trip and had the entire van to myself. Rodney was easy going and very knowledgeable. He was always on time and communicated very well. We chatted the entire way about so many things and I learned lot about the countries of Uganda/Rwanda, the history, politics, the people, the wildlife, he even told me exactly where the bottled water they provided me came from. He also worked with the Ranger personally for my pick up and drop off at the Bwindi Impenetrable forest for the Gorilla trek. I was again, a solo hiker on the Gorilla trek when we went looking for Gorillas. Coming in contact with these majestic apes in the wild was a amazing experience.
Golden Monkey trekking in Rwanda the next day, also went without a hitch and was so much fun.
I would definitely consider Frena Adventures for any future safaris and absolutely recommend them to anybody.

Efficient and courteous.
Had an excellent experience traveling with Frean in Uganda for 20 days. Rondald was our guide, and he was excellent. He was very courteous, accommodating, and a good advocate for us with any lodges and restaurants we went to. We saw so many animals and witnessed lots of great wildlife behavior and interactions. Ronald was also able to book us a night walk last minute when we asked. An excellent tour company; strongly recommend.

Reliable tour operator
I‘ve done a 2nights/3days trip from Kigali to Bwindi National Forest (Gorilla trekkking) and Mgahinga Gorilla National Park (Golden Monkey) on moderate budget.
The organization was easy and payment could be done online in advance.
The driver Ronald was reliable, drove safely and was able to explain a lot about the nature/country.
The accomodation at Bwindi National Forest was right at the forest with a great view (worth the money!).

Awesome
I did a three day gorilla tracking experience with Frena Adventures. From the time I was picked up, I felt taken care of and safe. My driver, Farouk, was professional, friendly, and was always on time. The gorilla trekking experience was seamless. We found and spent time with the Gorillas after only about an hour of trekking. We got very lucky. After trekking, I was returned to Farooq for the rest of my excursions. All of the hotel rooms that were booked for me and all of the activities I participated in were exciting and good. I was given a good glimpse of life in Rwanda/Uganda. We visited markets, a museum, did a community walk. My tour was catered to what I wanted to see. I definitely recommend this tour to other people. I literally have no complaints about anything.
