Golden Rwanda made our trip to Rwanda one of our best trips ever!
Our family of four (2 parents and 2 kids aged 17 and 21) wanted to go to Rwanda to do gorilla trekking but the more we learned about Rwanda, the more time we wanted to spend in the country. We reached out to Golden Rwanda and they did an excellent job helping me organize what turned out to be a 16 day trip! Communication with Frank (the owner) was excellent and we landed on a trip were we would go to the genocide memorial in Kigali, Nyanza royal palace, Nyungwe National Park (chimpanzee trekking, hiking, and colobus moneys), Lake Kivu (coffee plantation, fruit bats, and relaxation), Volcanoes National Park (2 days gorilla trekking & 1 day golden monkeys), and Akagera National Park (2 days in the south, 3 days in the north). We have traveled quite extensively in and out of Africa and this trip ranks up there with one of the best ones we have done. We were picked up by our guide/driver (Taufique) late at night in Kigali and quickly dropped off a the Governors Residence for a good night's rest (highly recommend this place). We would spend the next 16 days with Taufique in Rwanda. The two days of gorilla trekking were something that had to be reserved well ahead of time (Golden Rwanda did this for us) but everything else in the trip would be discussed the day before. I love this approach of having an outline of a plan but adjusting it along the way depending on the desires of the group. This was something that we have rarely had with a tour guide and it made the trip fantastic!!! We ended up experiencing things that were not in the original plan (such as ziplining in Nyungwe, the fruit bats on Napoleon Island, colobus monkeys in Nyungwe, walking with rhinos in Akagera, coffee plantation on the edge of Mount Kivu) and also eliminated some things that were too much (i.e. an extra day hiking in Volcanoes NP). Taufique was a master of logistics...getting us to where we needed to go, making sure lodging was ready for us, organizing food/coffee stops, and recommending activities along the way. He basically organized everything. Additionally...he was our wildlife guide in Akagera (which is a phenomenal park!!). So...first of all...go to Rwanda for more than gorillas....Nyungwe, Akagera, and Lake Kivu were particularly fantastic. It is an AMAZING country with so much to see and really nice people. Second...GO with Golden Rwanda and have them run the trip for you. It was fantastic and I highly recommend them!

Warning: Ramesa Adventures – Avoid This Irresponsible, Dishonest Tour Operator
We booked our safari adventure with Ramesa Adventures, but what should have been the trip of a lifetime turned into a nightmare of mismanagement, deception, and outright violation of agreements. The company failed to honor multiple basic contractual obligations and ignored our repeated requests for a refund, as previously agreed upon due to their disgraceful service. Not only did they disappear after promising compensation, but their lack of accountability and professionalism has left us feeling cheated, stressed, and deeply disappointed.
Contract Violations: We were promised a specific itinerary, including full-day safaris, prompt transfers, qualified guides, and basic provisions. Almost every promise was broken, and key activities were missed.
Utter Lack of Responsibility: After acknowledging their failures and agreeing to a refund, the company simply vanished and stopped all communication, leaving us with no support or resolution.
Customer Service Failure: Ramesa Adventures has demonstrated total disregard for customer welfare, safety, and trust. Their business practices are a cautionary tale for any would-be travelers: avoid at all costs.

One more Unforgettable Safari Experience with Benjamin – A Journey of a Lifetime
It was the 3rd time the last 5 years we decided to fly from Europe to meet Benjamin in South Africa and start a new adventure in the wildness.
From the very first moment we met our guide at Gaborone airport, we knew we were in excellent hands. What followed was an unforgettable private safari adventure that exceeded every expectation.
Our journey began in Mabuasehube Park (5 nights), where we experienced the raw beauty of nature up close – including the breathtaking (and slightly heart-racing!) moment of seeing lions right outside our tents.
From there, we continued to the Moremi National Park (5 nights), where we were fortunate enough to spot nearly all of the Big Five. Each day brought new surprises and incredible sightings, always guided with knowledge, patience, and passion.
The camping experience made the trip even more special. We stayed in unfenced campsites, which gave us a true sense of adventure, and every evening we gathered around the fire for a delicious barbeque under the stars. It was the perfect way to end each day – sharing stories, laughter, and enjoying the magic of the African night sky.
As three friends traveling together, having such a well-organized private tour was ideal. Our guide thought of absolutely everything, from logistics and meals to safety and comfort, so we could simply relax and immerse ourselves in the experience.
This was without doubt one of the most memorable trips of our lives, and we wholeheartedly recommend this safari to anyone who wants to experience the beauty of Botswana in the most authentic and unforgettable way.

stay away from this company
Rosallin Adventure and Logistic Ltd provided the actual safari services, but their execution was grossly incompetent and dangerous. The staff displayed alarming inexperience, ignored safety protocols, and failed to deliver the essential activities we paid for. The replacement driver was completely unqualified, repeatedly got lost, ignored advice from local guides and authorities, and put our safety at risk on multiple occasions.
Safety Hazards: The driver risked our lives by using unsafe routes, ignoring mechanical warnings, and refusing to call rangers during emergencies (including when we were stuck, exposed to wildlife, and one guest suffered a panic attack).
Deception & Inexperience: Our driver had minimal safari experience, misrepresented his skills, and failed to navigate basic routes. He also attempted to falsify official park entry times.
Provision Failures: There were days with no food, no water, and no basic care for travelers’ well-being, despite these being described in our package.
Total Disregard for Guests: At every stage, the company ignored our concerns and failed to provide the support and minimum service standards expected from a safari operator. This led to fear, distress, missed experiences, and wasted time.
A warning to all travelers: Both Ramesa Adventures and Rosallin Adventure and Logistic Ltd should be avoided. Book with trusted, highly-rated operators who genuinely care about your safety and experience. Don’t let your holiday become a disaster like ours.

Great Safari experience.
Overall experience of was great, starting from the communication prior to booking. Rita was very patient and explained anything I inquired. The hotels and tour was well managed overall. The guide Collins was well experienced and eager to ensure our experience was fulfilling. He ensured we got to see the Big 5 up close.
Will definitely recommend.
