Effective trip for the best of Rwanda

Seeing gorillas was the thing I have been waiting for all my life. This tour allowed me to do it. Chris was a fantastic driver always there for any question or need. All the gorilla process, permit-payment etc was done swiftly with the help of the company. On other hand the day tour of Kigali was an excellent one. Chris took me all over the city.

Response from Host, Jun 2025

Hi Camilo, Thank you so much for your kind feedback. It was a real pleasure to take you on a gorilla tour. We look forward to welcoming you again on your future trips to Rwanda.
