Good experience
They provided us with a shuttle service from Livingston to a resort in Zimbabwe. It was a 4 hour drive and they picked us up three days later. Friendly and professional driver and a good van. Can recommend.
Friendly & so knowledgeable!

2 night trek to the Gorillas
We had a wonderful experience with Beyond Travel. Our guide, Brighton, made the entire trip comfortable, enjoyable, and safe! He truly went above and beyond for us. Before our gorilla trek, I didn’t realize I needed long socks to cover the bottoms of my pants, and Brighton kindly lent me a pair. He also came prepared with masks for us when we learned masks were required around the gorillas. Those thoughtful details made a huge difference and showed how much he cared about making sure we were prepared and comfortable.
The lodges we stayed in were terrific. We weren’t quite sure what to expect from the “mid-range” accommodations, but they exceeded our expectations in every way. One of our favorite places was Acacia Cottage overlooking Lake Bunyonyi. The view of the 29 islands from up there was absolutely phenomenal and unforgettable.
The gorilla trekking experience itself was fantastic and truly once-in-a-lifetime. We also appreciated having the opportunity to meet the owner, who was genuinely eager to learn how he could improve the business and continue exceeding expectations. It was clear that the entire team truly cared and did everything they could to make our experience wonderful.
One thing future travelers should be aware of — and this is absolutely not the fault of Beyond Travel — is that the border crossing between Uganda and Rwanda can be somewhat slow, unclear, and chaotic. Unfortunately, we lost quite a bit of valuable time during the process on what was already a shorter two-night trekking experience. Hopefully others will have a smoother experience than we did. Looking back, I also wish I had purchased a multiple-entry Uganda visa, but that was my oversight, not theirs.
Overall, we were pleased with our trip and would recommend Beyond Travel to anyone considering an African adventure.

A quality agency offering a tailor-made service
A week spent discovering this little-known country.
The landscapes are breathtakingly beautiful; Lake Malawi, with its crystal-clear waters, deserves several days of exploration, as does Liwonde National Park, a true paradise for wildlife.
You almost forget about the rock paintings.
Our driver, Knocks, brilliantly handled the unexpected challenges inherent in this type of trip and remained calm and cheerful throughout our stay.
Thank you, Jorge, for this unforgettable experience.

Excellent and Professional Gorilla Trekking Experience
We had an excellent experience with Umurage Eco Safaris for our gorilla trekking tour in Rwanda. Communication before the trip was clear and helpful, and the team made sure we had all the information we needed in advance.
On the day of the tour, they picked us up on time and everything was handled professionally from start to finish. The service was reliable, friendly, and well organized, which made the whole day feel smooth and stress-free. Our driver was professional and made the journey comfortable.
The gorilla trekking experience itself was truly unforgettable. Seeing the gorillas in their natural environment was a special moment, and the tour was worth every bit of the cost. I felt the service, organization, and overall experience offered great value for money.
I highly recommend Umurage Eco Safaris to anyone planning a gorilla trekking trip in Rwanda.

Zanzibar Birthday Experience
I had a seamless pick up, check-in, drop off, by TwentyEight Tours and Travel. I received timely responses to my queries, friendliness from Nelisa...
The staff at Golden Palm Boutique Hotel, are professional and trustworthy, I forgot my charger in the room and they reached out to me, informing me and the tour company.
Additionally, the kitchen staff surprised me by baking a birthday cake for me...I was Amazed how they could go above and beyond, to make my birthday memorable.
TwentyEight Tours and Travel made me the best itinerary, no contest to that...I had an unforgettable birthday getaway & would encourage travel enthusiasts to book their travel to Zanzibar, with this company.
