Reputable Tour Company, stress free in Planning
We had an amazing time in Rwanda, one of the most beautiful countries we have ever been to, Kigali is very clean and green . We did our 8 days trip with Abu as our guide. Everything was well planned out and executed, e-mails with Yvonne was very easy and everything was being taken care of from start to the end. We visited Akagera for safaris, Volcanoes home of the Gorillas and Nyungwe, Culture sites, lake Kivu our guide Abu gave us the Rwandan History and its people and responded all our questions every single day. I cant say enough about how great the trip was, Highly Highly recommend this tour company.

Wonderful private 10-day Rwanda tour with Hermosa!
My wife and I had a wonderful private, 10-day Rwanda tour with Hermosa Life Tours! Our tour included time in Kigali, and Akegera, Nyungwe and Volcanoes National Parks (with stops in between). Everything - from booking/communication with the online agents, right to the tour and interactions with our guide - was excellent. Highly professional, respectful and just as promised.
[Before I begin the review, a quick note on us for context: My wife and I are Canadian, and are both in our 30s. We're active/fit, and enjoy being immersed in new cultures and new experiences. We elected for a budeget-friendly / lower mid-range tour.]
We initially discovered Hermosa on the Safari Bookings website and sent them an inquiry about a 10-day tour. Shortly after, we received a reply from Tiamo at Hermosa who we worked with via email to tailor the trip EXACTLY to our interests and budget. Tiamo was very polite and prompt in assisting us, and at no point did we feel pressured into booking a more expensive tour.
After confirming and booking the tour, we were assigned a guide/driver, named Gordon. Gordon was FANTASTIC! A kind, respectful and highly knowledgeable guide. Once in Rwanda, Gordon met us at the airport and drove us between tour centres/activities, including during our game drive in Akegera. He always had an answer to our questions about the history, culture and nature of Rwanda. He was punctual, helpful and respectful of our wishes (e.g., if we wanted to make minor on-the-fly changes to our tour, or if we wanted to spend extra time in some places). He also had very good recommendations for restaurants and side-activies. We felt very safe and cared for with Gordon - both with respect to driving on the roads (note that traffic in Rwanda is hectic! But Gordon handles it like a true pro) and in terms of making sure we got the most out of the trip. Overall, Gordon is just a great guy - fun to chat with, a wealth of knowledge, and caring and respectful of his guests.
Lastly, it's worth noting that Hermosa's vehicles are great - well maintained, robust for the sections of off-roading that we encountered (in the National Parks), spacious and comfortable.
Now, on Rwanda - wow, what a beautiful and unique country! The geography and natural environment outside of the main cities is gorgeous - lush and interesting landscape. We were most drawn to Rwanda for a chance to experice the mountain Gorillas in the wild, and we were not disappointed! The Volcanoes National Park staff were excellent (organized, knowledgeable and highly respectful of the animals) and our trekking tour was truly magical.
[A side-note: if you're highly prone to car-induced motion sickness, a driving tour of Rwanda may not be for you, as there are many windy roads around the thousands of hills in the coutry. That said, Gordon was very happy to make a pit-stop if we ever needed one].
Overall, we would HIGHLY recommend a tour with Hermosa Life Tours; and especially in Rwanda. Thank you Gordon, Tiamo, the Hermosa team, and Safari Bookings.

Our Gorillas safaris, a lifetime experience
We had an unforgettable Gorilla Trekking safari with Hermosa Life Tours and Travel in February 2026. From the moment our trip started, everything was well organized, smooth, and stress free. The team was friendly, professional, and made us feel comfortable throughout the entire experience.
Seeing the gorillas up close was truly once in a lifetime, and our guide made the journey even more enjoyable by sharing knowledge, keeping us motivated during the trek, and making sure we had a great time as friends. The accommodations, transportation, and overall service exceeded our expectations.
We highly recommend Hermosa Life Tours and Travel to anyone looking for an authentic, memorable, and well planned safari experience in East Africa. Thank you for the amazing memories! Highly recommend

The craziest hike of my life so far and 0 regrets!

I booked my Mount Bisoke hike with Hermosa Tours after a bit of research, and honestly I’m very happy I found them.
Hermosa offered a much more reasonable price while still organizing everything professionally (permit, transport, guide, timing).
Communication was easy, they were responsive on WhatsApp, and everything went smoothly on the day of the hike. Our guide was knowledgeable, friendly and realistic about the difficulty of the climb (which I appreciated because the weather can make a big difference).
The hike itself was quite challenging due to rain and mud, but the team made sure everyone was safe and supported throughout. This is definitely not an “easy walk”, but with good preparation and the right guide it’s an incredible experience.
I would definitely recommend Hermosa Tours.
Overall: very good experience, professional organization, and good value for money.

Superb service on every level
Hermosa Tours has excellent customer service that we had to put to the test when our trip was delayed 4 days as we were stuck in Dubai when they closed the airspace down. They rearranged everything for us when we finally managed to get a flight out, and got us back on track. Godwin is such an excellent tour guide, so very patient and informative! Thank you!
