Always way above our expectations
First contact with Frank was easy and profesional.Frank understood exactly what we wanted and built up the entire safari for us. All planned visits and tour were perfeclty organized. Accommodations were outstanding and always well located.
All of this worked perfectly thanks to our guide Jean Claude who has been very professional with a perfect knowledge of all the places we went to. Jean Claude is probably the best ambassador of Rwanda in Rwanda. The entire Golden Rwanda team deserves your confidence.

A great game drive!
This tour was very professional! Frank was a great guide and I had so much fun learning about the animals and driving around to find them. The service was great, on time and everything was advertised perfectly. The communication was great and easy to coordinate! Highly recommend!

Daylong safari in East Rwanda + week of business in Kigali
Frank and his team are dedicated, knowledgeable safari operators and city drivers.
We were given a comprehensive and laid-back safari tour, going this way and that, and thanks to Frank’s keen eye we spotted some rare sightings and were able to get up close and personal! Awesome!
We were in Kigali on business and after our one day off (our safari), we enlisted Golden Rwanda Safaris as our drivers for the remainder of our business trips all over the city. They know Kigali perfectly and are super easy-going.
Thanks to them we had a fantastic and successful trip to Rwanda.
Thanks so much!

Our trip (my family) was organized and guided by Golden Rwanda Safari. From the word go...it was conducted in a professional and friendly manner and we had an awesome experience enjoying the wild life and animals of Akagera National Park! The guide made sure we had an amazing trip.
Thank you.

our 11 days Combined Rwanda and Uganda (Easy booking process, Great Service, Knowledgeable Guide)
Our guide/driver Jean Marie Kagaba is one of the best. He spent several days with us taking us through our stops in Rwanda and Uganda. He speaks multiple languages and is well connected with the vendors and establishments. Jean Marie far exceeded our expectations of a guide/driver. Their equipment (They took us in First car Toyota Land Cruiser, of course) was well maintained and clean. what I like mostly was Booking process, they have e-payment and you pay by either Debit or credit card and it become very useful us while we don't like to carry money and also reducing Bank transfer charges. high recommended they e-payment system. can't thanks enough Frank and Jacky from my initial contact.
During our 11 days trip to Rwanda to see the mountain Gorillas but Jean Marie Kagaba’s professionalism and expertise meant we got so much more than we expected. He is rightfully very proud of his country, the government and what they have achieved in 20 short years since the genocide. He was always punctual, informative, answered our hundreds of questions with good grace and was relaxed and cheerful throughout. If we go back to Rwanda we will definitely use GOLDEN RWANDA SAFARIS . Thank you so much.
All-in-ll a wonderful trip and would definitely recommend entrusting your safari to this company.

Friendly & reliable services for individual travelers during our 12 day Rwanda tour
Just completed a 12 day tour of Rwanda/Uganda, organised by Golden Rwanda Safaris. Thank you so Much Frank B. Kanyamutara and your team for your professionalism!
We spent 2 of the 12 days in Uganda to see the gorillas with the rest of the time travelling around Rwanda.
Golden Rwanda Safaris were quick in answering questions we had regarding possible tours, including budget and type of activities we were interested in.
We were originally going to climb Mt Nyiragongo in DRC but this was not viable shortly after we booked the trip due to security concerns. Golden Rwanda Safaris offered a different hike as an alternative in Rwanda.
Our trip went incredibly smoothly from the outset with zero issues. This surprised me actually. We were in good hands our guide (Emile). We paid the money via their online payment gateway and needn't have bothered with caution really. We paid the final installment during the trip.
Our trip included:
Gorillas ( Rwanda & Uganda), Batwa pygmy Community (Uganda), Golden monkeys
Mt Bisoke hike, Visit to 2 cultural centers (Iby'iwacu), One day at Gisenyi (including boat ride), Chimps at Nyungwe, Nature walk + Canopy walk at Nyungwe, Couple of game drives and a boat ride in Akagera
If I were to do it again I would try to do gorillas in Rwanda (looks easier) even with the higher cost
Only go to one of the cultural centers if pressed for time.
It is very important for me to find reliable service providers while travelling, especially if I am travelling by myself. Three years ago, Golden Rwanda Safaris helped me get to the National Park in Uganda, Musanze and back to Kigali in a very efficient and uncomplicated way. Now back in Rwanda, they helped me in the same friendly and reliable manner -with very short notice! Thank you Golden Rwanda Safaris Tours for assisting me again.
I had indeed a marvelous stay in the National Park and surroundings.

Fantastic Tour
Tony is a great tour guide, and just a really nice person in general. He's passionate about Rwanda and Kigali, and we learned so much while having a great time and seeing the best that the city has to offer.

Amazing wildlife safari with Golden Rwanda
We contacted Frank about our first trip to Rwanda. From the beginning, Frank was professional, responded quickly and as we were travelling during Covid always kept us updated with the latest measures and made us feel safe. Our whole experience from start to finish was fantastic.
When we arrived Frank sorted us with SIM cards and gave us a tour around Kigali. The next day we met our guide, Anacalet and went on our week adventure. Anacalet was such a passionate tour guide, first taking us to volcanoes to do our trek with the gorillas, then driving down to lake Kivu and finally stopping at Nyungwe National Park. In between, Anacalet would always tell us stories about Rwanda culture, life in Rwanda and how things have changed over the last twenty years.
It has been a pleasure to complete our first trip to Rwanda with Frank and Anaclet. Nothing is too complicated for Golden Rwanda. We both had so much fun and won’t forget the laughs, animals and interesting conversations we had a long the way.
We travelled to Rwanda after the Covid restrictions were lifted and can’t recommend Golden Rwanda enough to anyone looking to travel post covid. These guys are switched on and will make sure you have THE best experience while keeping safe.
