    From the airport pickup, to the Twin Lakes cultural experience to the gorilla trek, this was truly an unforgettable trip. I was lucky enough to have Jean-Paul as my guide and cannot recommend him enough. His knowledge and energy truly added to my trip and I can't wait to go back and visit other regions in Rwanda with him!

    The two hours walking Safari is a must to do if you stay in the boader area to Uganda and Kongo. I had the pleasure to meet Peace Family, a 23 members counting Gorilla group. A fantastic experience with unforgetable memories. Thanks to Emanuele and the entire team.
