10 Day Best of Rwanda Safari: Gorillas, Chimps and Game Drives

Once in a lifetime experience

Amazing experience. Everything was easy and uncomplicated from the booking to the trip. The Company was always reachable when questions occurred or trip adjustments needed to be made. We did Gorilla-tracking and Akagera Safari. Both were incredible experiences. The guides went out of their way to make it a once in a lifetime experience.

One Day King’s Palace, Ethnographic Museum Tour w/ Coffee Option

Amazing tour to learn more about Rwanda's history and culture

I booked two day trips with AfriSafaris—the King’s Palace and Ethnographic Museum tour, as well as Akagera National Park (reviewed separately)—and both were absolutely fantastic experiences. My driver-guide for this tour was Samuel, who was very knowledgeable and informative, providing valuable insight into Rwanda throughout the day. At the King’s Palace, a local guide was outstanding. We visited a replica of the traditional royal palace, where the guide offered excellent insight into its structure and cultural significance. We then visited the royal cows before concluding with a tour of the colonial-style palace, during which the guide shared the history of Rwanda’s last king along with broader context about the country’s past. We also visited the Ethnographic Museum, which has an impressive collection of fascinating artifacts. We stopped for lunch at Stafford Coffee Shop, a great place to take a break when traveling in that part of Rwanda. The vehicle was very comfortable and well equipped, with Wi-Fi and a cooler stocked with beverages. This is an excellent tour for travelers looking to add historical and cultural depth to their trip. Overall, it was an amazing experience, and I wouldn’t hesitate booking this tour again or consider AfriSafaris’ other tour options.

1 Day Canopy Walk Adventure in Nyungwe Forest National Park

Great Walk/Hike

Do not miss an opportunity to take this amazing Canopy Walk. Unfortunately my husband was under the weather and couldn’t join me. It was beautiful. I was a bit nervous and wanted to challenge myself and am so happy I did. To say that Darius went out of his way to help me make this happen is an understatement. He knew I was nervous and was very encouraging. We had a lot of driving time which allowed for many conversations regarding Rwanda. He answered all of my questions regarding history, culture, daily life etc. I would do it again in a heartbeat!
