Muhwezi shiver was very friendly and personable. Speaks great English and was very informative.
Our safaris took us to see the gorillas and golden monkeys, both were great experiences and got us up close and personal. Accommodations were very nice with clean rooms and a variety of meal options.

Excellent organisation, communication and guide/driver - amazing experience overall
We had an amazing 4 days tour starting Kigali up to Queen Elisabeth NP. The organization from Kyooma was very good. Mwijie was very fast in responding to messages and always reachable. Our Guide and Driver Kiiza did an excellent job bringing us to all our destinations safely & in time, and telling so many interesting stories about the country, the animals and locals, and much more. We had a fantastic time - thank you Kiiza. The highlights: so many. The amazing gorillas, the chimps at Kyambura Gorge, the playing golden monkeys, the >50 elefants at Kazinga Channel and much more. Great experiences!

Making a dream trip an unforgetable experience
We just returned from the most incredible safari across Uganda and Rwanda, and we can’t stop thinking about it! The tour took us from Rwanda to Uganda, where we had the extraordinary chance to observe mountain gorillas in their natural habitat. But the adventure didn’t end there—we also saw the golden monkeys in Volcanoes National Park, and an extra day took us to Akagera National Park. Every moment was a marvel.
From the very beginning, the tour operator stood out. Mwije was incredibly responsive and always aimed to offer the best value to enrich our experience. Our guide, Kato Precious, was a true gem—always going above and beyond, sharing insights not only about the wildlife but also the rich cultures of both Uganda and Rwanda. As we traveled through towns and villages, he fostered connection—not just with us but with the local communities, making us feel like part of something bigger.
We stayed at beautiful eco-lodges in both countries, which were not only comfortable but really immersed us in nature. Since it was a private tour, it felt personal and special—just my wife and I, with all the attention and care we could have asked for. If you’re dreaming of a safari that blends wildlife, culture, and the warmest hospitality, this is the one. We couldn’t recommend it more!
