  • Very professional and well organized tour

    Silverbird Tours were very easy to work with to develop a customized 5 day/4 night chimpanzee (Nyungwe NP), gorilla, golden monkey (Volcano NP) treks and animal safari (Akagara NP). Justin, my driver/guide, was very professional and knowledgeable. The Silverbird vehicle was a newer SUV, clean, reliable and in good condition. All arrangements from picking me up at Kigali airport to dropping me off back at the airport in good time for my flight were provided as agreed. The accommodations were clean and comfortable.

  • Fantastic experience with Silverbird Tours

    We were lucky to pick Silverbird Tours. 4 day Rwanda tour including chimp trekking, gorillas, golden mountain, city tours, exploring rural areas, etc. All besides our private guide and driver Justin. He was fantastic. He was quick, smart, flexible with our itinerary and very polite. Knowledgeable about Rwandan history, current developments, wildlife and its people. I would strongly recommend Justin, owner Peter and SilverBird Tours for any person or group of people visiting Rwanda. Yours sincerely, Nicolas Orezzoli
