"Kim and her team did an exemplary job planning and executing our trip to Rwanda. Not only was the gorilla and golden monkey trekking the most amazing experience but Rwanda is a beautiful, well run country and so worth the visit! We have told all our friends what an amazing experience we had!"

"Susan and I had a great 7 day trip to Rwanda. Highly recommended. Included 2 gorilla treks which exceeded our expectations – gorillas approached within 1 metre and we always felt safe with the experienced guides – even had the unexpected bonus of seeing 2 elephants up close on the 1 trek. Food at the Five Volcanoes Boutique Hotel was outstanding! People were friendly."
