Attention to details.
We had a blast, me and people, we were looking forward to make most out of our time there, because we didn't have much time... And that's exactly what we did thank to them, they took care of us, never stressed us about money, it felt like we were in vacation with parents, for we never worried about anything we just had to enjoy ourselves. THEY DID A GOOD JOB

❤️❤️❤️👌
Our booking was originally planned for three weeks – a complete tour up to Gisenyi (for 6 people). Unfortunately, our five-year-old son became ill and was very unwell for 14 days. During this difficult time, we were not alone – you never left us on our own. For this, my entire family would like to say thank you from the bottom of our hearts. The Everetret team quickly organized a new plan: story time and 🤗 small activities to provide distraction. Healthy children and girls were taken on short outings (not far from Kigali), and every day brought something new. This allowed my husband and me to fully focus on caring for our little son. In the last week of our stay (after the 14 days), we were also able to enjoy a short break ourselves. We will see you again in August. Many, many thanks to the whole team – Doris, Theo, and everyone else. 🙏🙏🙏❤️👌
