Passionate Guide, Incredible Wildlife, Perfect Day! - We had an unforgettable safari experience in Rwanda with Christian as our guide. From the very beginning, it was clear that he truly cares about the animals and the park. His passion and knowledge made the entire trip both exciting and educational. Christian made sure we felt safe, comfortable, and well taken care of the whole time. He explained what we were seeing in a way that was easy to understand and answered all of our questions with patience. Thanks to him, we were able to see elephants, giraffes, zebras, baboons, hippopotamus, and so much more—it was incredible! If you’re looking for a guide who is professional, caring, and genuinely invested in giving you the best experience possible, I highly recommend booking a tour with Christian. He truly made our safari one we will never forget!

John is a Terrific Guide - we had a wonderful tour of Kigali City - John Bob is a Terrific Guide, in the morning he came early before 9am and waited for us in front of our Hotel. We had a wonderful tour of Kigali City. We went to Kigali Genocide Memorial, Inema Art Center, Kimironko Market, Kigali Convention Centre,enjoyed the view from mountain Kigali, went to Imbuga City Walk… it’s an efficient day, we saw a lot of the City, especially we enjoyed the local food restaurant that John took us to. The lunch is amazing, thanks John for all the nice chats, answered us all questions, introduced us to the city’s history, talked about his family, his experience as a guide. In the end, John took us to the top floor of Kigali City Hall, we had a beautiful view of the city. It’s a wonderful day! Thanks so much John Bob!

Great Time in Kigali! - Lovely full day tour of Kigali. Richard was excellent and gave us a full day of undivided attention. We stopped at several sites and had a nice lunch together. I would recommend this tour as a first day activity to get the lay of the land.

Best Tour in Kigali - extra effort, worth every penny - I had an incredible experience on this tour in Kigali! It was a full-day adventure, running from 9 am to 4 pm, and we visited around ten different locations, with a stop for lunch to recharge. Each spot we visited felt thoughtfully chosen and showcased a different side of Kigali, from its bustling city life to the serene views just outside the city. Our tour guide truly made the experience unforgettable. As a local, he had an impressive depth of knowledge about Kigali’s history, culture, and hidden gems that even some residents might not know about. He shared fascinating stories and insights that gave me a much deeper appreciation for the city. His passion for Kigali really came through, and he knew exactly where to take us for the most stunning views and photo opportunities. I can’t recommend this tour enough—it’s the best way to experience Kigali if you want a well-rounded look at the city’s beauty and vibrant culture. Whether you’re a first-time visitor or someone who’s been here before, this tour offers something special. It’s hands down the best tour you’ll find in Kigali!

Flexible and friendly private tour of Kigali - Taking advantage of a long layover via Rwanda air, we decided to book a last minute tour of Kigali. My main problem was that I didn't know which hotel we would be given by the airline until we arrived. But the tour operator replied immediately after booking and offered the flexibility of waiting til the last minute to find out where to pick up. Our guide, Christian, was early, friendly, had a great comfortable SUV to take us around in, and was an amazing guide, full of information about Kigali. We really got a flavour of the place in a short time. We also could decide to alter the schedule to accommodate our jetlag (like finding great coffee first!). So can heartily recommend these tours and operator.
