I would not recommend any other tour company and tour guide for Akagera National Park Safari.
Bagena was my tour guide. He shared all the details a day ahead, though I had made a last minute booking.
He was very punctual, and picked me up at the agreed time. His knowledge about Kigali and the Akagera National Park was extremely good. I was worried that since I was the only one going, the trip journey of 3 hours might be boring or awkward silence. That did not happen at all.
Once we arrived, he provided clear guidance and instructions on what to expect and what are the dos and donts.
Breakfast was delicious and at an amazing location.
Boat trip was superb, saw so many crocodiles and hippos and birds and wildlife that I felt the small fee for the boat trip was alot more worth than what they charged.
Then began the game drive. Bagena's skill showed, as despite driving, he suddenly would notice something far and stop so that we could admire all the amazing animals.
I got to see tons of Zebras, Elephants, Rhinos, Giraffes, Buffalos, Monkeys, Baboons, and you name it. We even saw the lions on a hunch that Bagena had.
All in all, despite the cost, the value was superb and I would come back in a heart beat with other loves ones to show them this amazing place.
Only minor issue was that the top of the jeep was nearly fully open, so that I could stand up straight (I am a tall dude), but it felt it might drop on me, though it never did. Perhaps investing in a slightly more newer vehicles should be considered, or fix some of the hinges that might be creaky.

Chill, adaptable, respectful and fun.
Fantastic experience.
Very comfortable and pleasant.
It is suitable for those who might be less adventurous and prioritise comforts.
Very safe. Very beautiful.
Great vehicle, 7 seats, the roof can be raised to provide a 360 view while still being in the safety of the vehicle. You can still get them even when you are only 2 pax. ENSURE YOU GET THIS VEHICLE.
Sitting in a bus or SUV car does not provide the same viewing pleasure.

Taufique is Kind hearted and Jovial.
I recently had the opportunity to go on a two days safari tour in Kigali, Rwanda, and it was an incredible experience. The tour was meticulously organized, offering breathtaking views of the wildlife and landscape. The service was outstanding, with knowledgeable guides and impeccable attention to detail throughout the trip.

An unforgettable adventure
We had the most amazing 2-day safari experience with Golden Rwanda Safaris. The tented accommodation was exceptional — comfortable, beautifully arranged, and far beyond what we expected.
But what truly made this journey unforgettable was our guide and driver, TAUFIQUE. He was incredibly polite, always attentive to our needs, and often knew what we wanted even before we said it. His driving was excellent, and we felt completely safe at all times.
He worked tirelessly to show us as many animals and breathtaking places as possible, making every moment feel special. His positive energy, deep knowledge of wildlife, and genuine passion for what he does touched our hearts. We were always smiling around him.
Thanks to TAUFIQUE, we lived a dream filled with wonder, joy, and memories that we will cherish forever. We couldn’t have hoped for a better guide. Highly, highly recommended! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

One of the best tour guides I’ve ever had.
Fantastic experience. Saw and did more than I expected. Sufiane, our tour guide, was so kind and knowledgeable. Worth the money.

Kind, professional, accommodating, knowledgeable
We had a great time! Learned so much and saw a variety of birds and animals. Heaps of rhinos, elephants, zebras, and giraffes. All of the logistics went flawlessly. Highly recommend Sufiane!

Brilliant to deal with.
After extensive research, we reached out to Frank at Golden Safaris and from the first contact we could not have been more satisfied. Frank helped us with our itinerary and made some great suggestions. As promised on arrival we were met by "Mr T" Taufique who was extremely pleasant and easy to travel with. Mr T was always on time and accommodated our daily request's and even replanned a whole day when we changed our mind, planning a wonderful village tour and boat cruise around Twin Lakes. Then went above and beyond by pick us up at our Hotel and providing us a ride to the airport on our last morning in Kigali. A big thanks to Golden Safaris, Frank and particularly Taufique who made our trip wonderful.

One of the best, seamless arrangement, knowledgeable and caring.
Just got back from an 8 day trip to Rwanda. Needless to say, I am left breathless with our experience. Golden Rwanda Safaris coordinated everything and it was spectacular. Many thanks to Frank (tour operator) Taufique and Mohammed (excellent guides) for making this trip unforgettable.
We would highly recommend Golden Rwanda Safaris.

Reliable, 10 out of 10 in service, worth the price
Our tour guides, Taufic and Muhammad, truly went above and beyond for us.
They took such good care of every little detail, from asking us what we liked to drink and eat during those long Jeep rides, to checking in on us after the exhausting trek through the forest. Their kindness and attentiveness made the whole experience even more special.
Leaving Rwanda with a happy and full heart. This trip is one for the books, from zip-lining to trekking along muddy trails, every moment was worth it. God is truly amazing for creating such a wonderful country for us to explore and be grateful for always 🙏🏻
