I contracted a tour to visit Gorillas from Kigali just hours before the tour had to start. Jason was so flexible & effective. The Guide, Alex was a fixer, solving all problems with VISA in Uganda, cash and so on. These guys are very Gold professionals. No doubt, they are a perfect choice

The best and reliable experience I could have ask for.
This was a great experience coming from United States. Jason was very easy to communicate with and was very fast at emailing back or on what’s app. He made the process too easy. I had a motorcycle accident two days prior and was not sure if I could go on this mountain gorilla trekking, last second I decide I was able to. He came to pick me up on time at 0300, the vehicle was nice, clean and reliable. His English is very good and easy to understand. He had the best price compared to others.

Dream come true!!!
Wanted to drop you a quick note to say thanks for the epic Rwanda trip! Jason’s local knowledge and infectious enthusiasm made every day a blast. From the gorillas to the vibrant markets, you showed us the real deal. Your personal touch and fun stories really brought the trip to life. It felt like hanging out with a buddy who just happens to know everything about Rwanda. The laughs and good times were the cherry on top. Can’t wait to hit the road again with you soon. Keep up the great work! Cheers from your Chinese friend Yi and his parents!

Efficient and worthwhile tour experience
Our tour was a very worthwhile experience, a day trip from Kigali to see the gorillas in Mgahinga National park. The gorillas themselves were amazing, and the tour operator was able to accommodate us on very short notice to make it happen. We had two drivers, Alex who was clearly very experienced and helped with the border crossing, and Benson who was a joy from his genuine enthusiasm and passion of what we were doing
