5/5

We had a great time with Enos our guide. He was accommodating, extremely knowledgeable about Rwandan affairs, affable and one of the nicest people I've ever met. Olive was easy to work with and the whole trip was an amazing success. Would thoroughly recommend them - especially Enos.

Amazing experience with Africa Adventure Safaris
5/5

I recently had the opportunity to visit Uganda for trekking Mountain Gorillas in wild. Being little skeptical about the country and security, I was taken aback by the services, support and facilities provided by Africa Adventure which kind of over exceeded my expectations. Specially need to mentioned Bernard as my assigned tour guide Humble and jovial by nature who made the whole trip such a comfort and informative that I would suggest any friend or family visiting there to book from them. Thanks team Africa Adventure Safaris for making this trip wonderful, comfortable and a massive success. Cheers..!!

5/5

Communication and service were excellent with a prompt response at every stage of the booking process. Our guide Chris was polite, friendly and very well informed. The organisation of the tour made the whole experience most enjoyable. Chris went out of his way to be helpful at every stage. I would highly recommend using Africa Adventure Safaris.

Amazing experience with gorillas, chimps and the guys from ugandagorillatour.com.
4/5

That trip was good, with animals seen on the ways, budget accomodations, dairy programs and game drive jeep.
Some boring transfers somedays but very long distances to drive along.
Not so good the extra night and meals in Kampala, obviously we had to have dinner/breakfast at that time

4-day Gorillas and Wildlife Tour
5/5

Everything about this trip was first class. We booked through Nelson who was extremely professional and timely in his communication. Our host for the trip was Bernard, and I don't have enough good things to say about him. The van was extremely comfortable and the budget accommodations they chose were surprisingly great. Bernard was extremely knowledgeable about the landscape, economics and politics of the country, as well as the wildlife we encountered. He made every effort to ensure we had a great trip, including several sudden stop requests for photos or chances to buy a cold pop. The actual safaris they planned were incredible. We were extremely pleased with our gorilla trekking, boat excursion and game drives. We saw schools of animals from lions to hippos to elephants to buffalos. I couldn't provide a higher recommendation for this tour group.

Africa Adventure Safaris was the perfect choice for the visiting the Mountain Gorillas in Rwanda
5/5

I contacted Africa Adventure Safaris (DBA Rwanda Gorilla Tour) and two other more familiar tour companies to see what type of tours were available to see the gorillas in Rwanda and what the cost would be. Africa Adventure was the most flexible and was also less expensive than the other 2 companies. I eventually booked a 4 day 3 night tour with them and requested that they purchase a 2 day pass for me to go on gorilla trek. Because i was traveling alone i was somewhat concerned about whether a guide would actually show up at the Kigali, Rwanda airport to meet me and what it would be like depending on a complete stranger for 4 days. There was no need for concern. Enos was waiting for me when i arrived and made me immediately comfortable. By the end of the trip i was relying totally on him. He kept track of my camera, my backpack and sometimes even my passport. It was like traveling with a friend. He was always prompt to pick me up for the gorilla treks and where ever else we were going.It was nice not being with a group. The staff at my hotel was very friendly and were always quick to help out if something was needed. There were a wide variety of menu choices and i enjoyed everything i tried. After talking to other people that i met on the trek i think i would have preferred staying at a Lodge rather than a hotel but i spent very little actually hanging around at the hotel so it really didn't make a big difference - plus i know that the Lodges cost more.
The entire trip was smooth and relaxed. Other than the scheduled treks it was up to me to decide how i wanted to spend my free time and Enos was always there to accompany me. I recommend them and in fact have already given their information to two people who are interested in seeing the gorillas.

Gorillas Rwanda and Uganda
5/5

My family returned recently (August 2014) from a 5 day gorilla trekking holiday in Rwanda and Uganda, organized by Olive from “Africa Adventure Safaris”.
About a year ago I began researching trips to the gorillas and I spent extensive time on the internet gathering as much info and insight into the dos and don’ts, as I could, from 4 different tour companies. I eventually settled on an itinerary and the hotels I wanted and put the same option out to all 4 companies for quotes.
Over all the time of researching, Olive from “Africa Adventure Safaris” impressed me the most – answering my many questions and adding valuable info to my queries timeously, efficiently and with a friendliness permeating the correspondence.
“Africa Adventure Safaris” came in very competitively with pricing and after favourable reviews from past clients, I settled on them to arrange my trip.
All the bookings were done as per my requests and payment via EFT went without a hitch.
William - our guide and driver- was great – very friendly and knowledgeable about the region.
The trip was fabulous, the hotels as described and my itinerary was executed exactly as planned. We had an amazing, “once in a lifetime bucket list experience”.
I can only commend “Africa Adventure Safaris” on their professionalism and friendliness and would without hesitation recommend them to others wanting to experience this unique region.

I would highly recommend Africa Adventures Safaris. They made the entire experience a pleasure. Olive was very helpful during the planning stage and Enos was a fantastic guide! He went out of his way to make sure everything went well. The gorilla trekking was an amazing experience. The guides and porters were very friendly and helpful!
