A deep-dive into Kigali with hiking, zipline activities, sight seeing and other external activities were excellent Serge was our company during the trip and he was really great at what he does. His ability to make us feel welcomed and at home was amazing. He explained every phase of our journey clearly as well as answering all the questions accurately.

A muddy adventure! This hike was more difficult than the reviews let on! I am in moderate shape and it was a challenge for those more fit than me. Definitely make sure you bring a carb snack, a sugar snack, lots of water, sunscreen, and a change of clothes -- if it rains, you'll desperately want to get out of your muddy pants and shoes before the cold night hits. Hire a porter even if you think you don't need one. The guides are awesome and patient. Great experience, but I'll be sore for a few days!

Professional, trustworthy & I got more than I planned! Great hike with great views! I visited Kigali on a short solo trip and wanted to see some sights. Serge set me up with this hike and a timely professional driver for a one-day Bisoke Volcano climb (which was difficult but awesome). Serge is respectful and good company; I would recommend Rwagasabo for all groups or solo visitors like me looking to explore Rwanda. I'll be booking with them again when I come back! Thanks so much, Serge!

I visited Fazenda Sengha on top of Mount Kigali, and the location was perfect for the outdoor and adventure activities I hiked the Mountain Kigali Trail and it was an incredible experience from start to finish. The trail offered beautiful views of Kigali and the surrounding hills, with lush greenery and peaceful nature throughout. The paths were well marked and varied in terrain, which made the hike both enjoyable and rewarding. The location was convenient and accessible, and the scenery along the way made it worth every step. Whether you’re into hiking, nature photography, or just want to enjoy fresh air and great views, this trail is a must‑visit. I left feeling refreshed and inspired highly recommended!

Good Tour Tour guides were friendly and it was great to see a village. The tour was a little shorter than what I was told but overall great.

Perfect two day safari My son and I had 3 days to explore some sights in Rwanda before travelling onto Uganda. We booked a two day safari with Rwagasabo Safari to Akagera National Park which is in the east of Rwanda on the Tanzanian border. Our guide Vincent collected us on time and proved a great host on our 2 day trip, answering all our questions, we felt in good hands for our first visit in Rwanda. After a briefing in the park office and a short drive we made ourselves comfortable in Akagera Game Lodge, where we stayed for one night. It was the perfect base. The staff were friendly, professional and welcoming, the accommodation was clean, well equipped, delicious food and hotel facilities. The first evening we went on a night safari which was great fun! We saw some sightings but most the following day. Day two started with a boat safari which was led by a very knowledgeable guide who showed us crocodiles of varying ages and sizes, lots of bathing hippopotamus, snake birds (they have very long necks and when they are in the lake you can only their necks which look like a snake). Palm nut vulture, African fish eagle and many other bird species. Vincent and a park ranger Alpha spent the rest of the day driving from the south of the park and out the northern gate. We managed to spot: Genet, water buffalo, topi, water buck, bush buck, impala, giraffe, zebra, warthog, leopard, white tailed mongoose, loads of white rhino, elephants and a big pride of lions. Vulture, snake bird, lots of eagles and a snake!
