Rwanda Travel Guides

A Rwanda travel guide to Rwanda shows a destination built around dramatic landscapes, wildlife, and easy-to-plan routes. Most journeys start in Kigali, a clean and safe city known for culture, museums, and great food, before heading into nature. The highlight for many travelers is gorilla trekking in Volcanoes National Park, where misty mountains and close encounters with mountain gorillas create a once-in-a-lifetime experience. Safari lovers also visit Akagera National Park for Big Five game drives, while rainforest adventures in Nyungwe offer chimpanzees and canopy walks. For relaxation, the scenic shores of Lake Kivu provide calm beaches, boat trips, and sunset views. Rwanda travel guides often emphasize its compact size, safety, and smooth road network, making it easy to combine multiple experiences in one trip.

Our Incredible Safari Experience with Sarafu Travel. My family and I had the opportunity to experience an adventure with Sarafu Travel. From start to finish, the whole experience was professionally executed and packed with excitement. When we arrived for our trip, the Sarafu team made sure we were well-prepared, providing all the necessary gear and safety instructions in a friendly, approachable way. Our guide Moses was incredibly respectful of the animals’ space and knew exactly where to take us for the best chances of spotting wildlife. We explored Tarangire National Park and Ngorongoro Crater, and we were impressed with how well-organized the entire trip was. Truly a memorable experience with Sarafu Travel!

A travel agency that won't let you down Sarafu Travel is a really good travel agency. They always give great service. When we first talked, they gave good advice and fair prices. They are quick to respond and keep their promises. Manager Joseph is nice and even picks you up and drops you off at the airport. He gives clear instructions to stay safe. The guide, Vitalis, is awesome with 27 years of Safari experience. He knows where animals will be, understands their habits, and makes the Safari fun and interesting. Vitalis loves his job and it shows, making the Safari unforgettable. Sarafu Travel is the best choice for Tanzania trips, giving great value for money. I recommend them to all my friends for travel advice.

Best experience ever! It was awesome! We can’t really describe it. We definitely recommend Sarafu Travel. We would particularly like to emphasise our guide Vitalis and our chief Damian! Vitalis is very nice, patient and our safety was always his priority! Also he has eyes like an eagle because he saw every animal although the distance was that high. We felt pretty comfortable all the time! Damians cooking was always fresh and so delicious despite the special circumstances! We were fascinated all the time! Thank you kindly to both of them for this unforgetable experince and time!

Amazing Safari Tour with an Awesome Guide We had an amazing time during our safari adventure in Tanzania, where we explored several national parks: Arusha, Tarangire, Lake Manyara, and Serengeti. Our guide was not only friendly but also an excellent driver with a knack for spotting animals even from a distance. The tour office provided exceptional assistance, accommodating our last-minute trip changes. We want to express our heartfelt thanks for this fantastic vacation!

A.D.F - Arusha,Lake Manyara & Ngorongoro Natinal Park Erleben auch Sie ein außergewöhnliches Abenteuer verbunden mit Eindrücken aus dem Stadtleben und den spektakulären Ereignissen aus beiden Naturparks. Ein großes Lob an unseren Fahrer Gichero, der uns während der gesamten Safaritour immer sicher an das nächste eindrucksvolle Geschehen gefahren hat. Die überwältigende Natur, Dschungel und Savanne, die Tierwelt und Gicheros "Riecher" immer zur richtigen Zeit am richtigen Ort zu sein, haben wir vertraut, um die beeindruckende Landschaft und die Tierwelt zu genießen. Schließen die Augen und verhalten Sie sich ruhig:"Jetzt lassen Sie das, was Sie sehen auf sich wirken ... spüren Sie die Natur?" Eine Stille, verbunden mit einer Elefantenmutter, die ihr Baby vorsorglich führt, eine Löwenherde beim Fressen, die einen Wasserbüffel gerissen hat, Flusspferde, die im Wasser faulenzen, ... traumhaft! Sachkundige Informationen gibt es noch obendrauf. Eine besondere Tour, die jeden Tag gemeinschaftlich mit dem Abendessen und den Erzählungen in der Lodge endet. Gerne wieder!
