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!

Awesome 🤩
We booked a 3-day safari with Kyooma Gorilla Safaris. From the very beginning, everything was organized perfectly. As agreed, we were picked up right on time in Kigali, Rwanda, by our guide Edgar. We highly recommend Edgar – he speaks excellent English, is always punctual, and is great company. We shared many laughs during the trip!
The accommodations we stayed in fully met our expectations, as did the Golden Monkey Trekking and the Gorilla Trekking experiences 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻.
After these three days, we took advantage of the opportunity to rent the 4x4 and continue exploring Rwanda on our own. Once again, everything was arranged perfectly, including the border crossing from Uganda back into Rwanda.
We highly recommend Kyooma Gorilla Safaris and guide Edgar to everyone!!!! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Easygoing tour planning and pleasant safari with Kyooma
Pleasant Tour, thanks to Kyooma Gorilla Safari team, especially to Kato Gracious!
The answers on all my questions beforehand were answered promptly and all communication was easy, special thanks to Mwije here!
Our experience wouldn‘t have been the same without Kato, who was not only a pleasant Guide and dialogue partner but also a really thoughtful and secure driver. Our long drive wasnt borsesome at all and even crossing the border between Rwanda and Uganda was relaxed. Additionally I want to point out his punctuality, which exceeds even german standards ;-). I would definitly choose him again!
The Lodges Kyooma Safari choosed for us were derinitly worth the money. Next time we would spend more time with them in Uganda.
Greetings,

It was an amazing experience!
I booked the Golden Monkeys Trekking day trip from Kigali with Kyooma Gorilla Safaris. Their team was very efficient and communicated well the days before the trip. Eden, my driver, showed up on time and drove me to this day activity. I enjoyed our conversations and he made sure I was having a good time. Id recommend this day trip to anyone visiting Kigali. The golden monkeys were amazing! Whenever I visit Uganda, I know I will be contacting this company again!
