A remarkable journey
It was an unforgettable trip, everything was organized to perfection. Susan, my travel agent from Discover Africa, carefully organized this trip for me as a solo traveler and was constantly looking out for me. I felt safe and secure every step of my trip.

Warm and welcoming!
I had a wonderful time in my 5 days here! The staff are all so kind. It's a family atmosphere that really made this female solo traveler feel very safe and comfortable. Mr. Bongani went out of his way to see that I was well cared for. He even sent someone to my airport hotel that escorted me (about a 5 minute walk) to the minibus that would take me to the lodge. They could have easily just given me directions on where to go to meet the bus, but it was early and dark and I was alone and jet lagged, so i really appreciated this touch. During my stay, Charlie was my guide during my game drives and he did an excellent job. He even saw rhinos at dusk that could have been easily missed. The panoramic drive, in which I saw Blyde Canyon among other great spots, was breathtaking. Charlie really knew his way around and gave me plenty of time to explore and take it all in. I never felt rushed.
The breakfast and the dinners were prepared by skilled cooks and it was all delicious. Eating dinner each night at a nicely set table beside a small campfire was delightful and memorable.
This lodge is a relatively short drive to both Kruger and Manyeleti Game Reserves, both of which you'll get plenty of time in and see a wonderful variety of animals (I got to see the Big 5, among many others). The lodge itself is in a village community, which I think adds a lot of value to the whole warm and welcoming experience. I'm so very glad I used Bongan Safaris and I hope very much to return someday.

Amazing Lalibela!
We had a great visit in Lalibela with Daniel, visiting stunning ancient churches, enjoying a delicious home-cooked meal and coffee ceremony prepared by his wife, and trying homemade alcohol and injera. We also hiked up to Asheton for breathtaking views, explored the bustling Saturday market, and attended Sunday morning mass. Lalibela left a lasting impression, and we recommend Daniel!

An experience to remember lifelong!
I've stayed Kenya for 7 days. Nairobi was a nice city but there was not much attractions for tourist. However, my last 3 days in Masai Mara were amazing cause I went for a Safari. I stayed in an amazing hotel called Sopa Lodges which I highly recommend cause the food the view and the atmosphere was great. During the day in the safari area you get really tired, so a good place to stay at night and have rest to get back energy is needed. Wildlife in the safari was breathtaking and we have even seen leopard and cheetah although it's generally difficult to catch them. I a summary, I think every people in the world should experience this advanture at least once in their life. This was my second and it was ten times better than my first one in Rwanda.

amazing trip
- Is amazing trip to feel the wild life.
- the roads are in bad condition which makes the travel very uncomfortable

Very interesting and a wonderful experience.
We had a wonderful 5 days in Kenya. Unfortunately, April is the rainy season (which we were aware of) so not so many animals and birds to be seen. Over all we found Kenyan people very hospitable, friendly and extremely helpful. We enjoyed the wide open spaces in the Maasai Mara and all in all it was a great experience.

Well planned trip with experienced operator/guide
This is my first time to Africa and Rwanda - and I couldn’t be happier to travel with Golden Rwanda Safaris. Frank has been a delight since the beginning; answering my questions and giving me tips when it comes to packing for the safari. He’s always responsive, even when Rwanda was having its commemoration for the genocide.
I was lucky to travel with Taufique, who is friendly, fun and quick-witted. My hiking boots broke twice during a hike and he was able to quickly find a place to have it fixed, and made the rainforest trek to chimpanzees possible. Taufique is also determined and patient, when we’re in the safaris trying to spot all Big 5s and the other animals.
I truly enjoyed my time in Rwanda - the hotels, restaurants that they booked were superb, the car that they used is new and well stocked with drinking water, and the itinerary was well paced and not rushed. Recommended and hope to be back again!

Very nice, and amazing
It was our honeymoon. We went to kilimajaro and safari tour. We didn't have many information about tour, but Jonas who is the boss gave us many information so we planed our honey perfectly. The guides was very friendly and nice. When we went to the Kilimanjaro, they helped a lot, so we enjoyed trekking safely. Thank Edward and Musuwa who are the best guides, and all of the team. If you find some tour compony, don't hesitate pick "Joagro Safari".
