Professional, well organised and very welcoming.

Renai, recently prepared a bespoke trip for myself and son over 13 days. We can’t thank them enough for providing us with memories of a lifetime. Our guide and driver “Living” embraced our every need and want during the trip. He kept us entertained and was always seeking feedback on how he could assist us and make our trip better. I would highly recommend Renai to anyone wanting to experience the real Africa.

Lively and Interesting

It was such A Memorable 4-Day Adventure with a Vibrant Guide! As students short on time during a study conference, we couldn’t have asked for a better way to spend our break than with Renai Adventures. Our 4-day Rwanda safari was perfectly tailored to fit our tight schedule, allowing us to explore the country’s stunning natural beauty. The highlight of our trip was trekking to see the majestic mountain gorillas in Volcanoes National Park – a truly humbling and unforgettable experience. We also enjoyed an exciting game drive in Akagera National Park, where we spotted elephants, giraffes, and zebras roaming freely. Our guide, Mr. Yagala, was a standout – lively, engaging, and full of fascinating stories. He kept us entertained throughout the trip while ensuring everything ran smoothly. This adventure was short but packed with incredible memories, and we can’t recommend Renai Adventures enough!
