I was born and raised near Rwanda’s renowned Volcanoes National Park, home to the endangered mountain gorillas. Having spent my entire life in this region, I have developed an intimate knowledge of Rwanda and Uganda, their landscapes, wildlife, cultures, and hidden treasures. It is my passion to share these remarkable destinations with visitors from around the world. I am a dedicated wildlife and ecotourism professional with extensive experience as a tour guide, safari driver, and hospitality manager. In addition to managing my own bed and breakfast, I provide personalized safari experiences using well-maintained 4x4 Toyota Land Cruiser safari vehicles with pop-up roofs, as well as luxury SUVs for private tours. Over the years, I have traveled extensively throughout Rwanda, Uganda, and East Africa, gaining first-hand knowledge of the region’s most iconic attractions as well as many lesser-known gems. My experience, local expertise, and strong network of tourism partners allow me to create seamless and unforgettable travel experiences for my guests. I can assist with all aspects of travel planning, including accommodation reservations, gorilla trekking permits in Rwanda and Uganda, golden monkey tracking, chimpanzee trekking, wildlife safaris, hiking adventures, cultural experiences, airport transfers, and customized itineraries tailored to individual interests. Working with travelers from diverse cultural backgrounds has given me exceptional interpersonal and communication skills. I pride myself on building strong relationships with my guests and ensuring they feel welcomed, comfortable, and well-informed throughout their journey. I am fluent in Kinyarwanda and English, speak conversational Swahili, and have a basic knowledge of French. As a guide, I am known for my professionalism, reliability, punctuality, and commitment to delivering outstanding service. My goal is to provide every guest with a safe, authentic, and memorable African safari experience. My passion for travel extends beyond my work. I have visited numerous African destinations, both as a tour guide and as a traveler, including the Democratic Republic of Congo, Kenya, Burundi, Uganda, Tanzania, Zanzibar, Zambia, Zimbabwe, and the Seychelles. These experiences have broadened my understanding of different cultures, environments, and tourism practices across the continent, allowing me to bring a wider perspective to the experiences I offer my guests. Qualifications Licensed Tour Guide, Rwanda Development Board (RDB) Certificate in Tourism, Hospitality Management and Service Excellence – Cornell University Bachelor of Business Management and Finance – Mount Kenya University (2017) Certified Professional Accountancy Program – 9 of 18 modules completed Professional references and letters of recommendation available upon request Whether you are planning a gorilla trekking adventure, a wildlife safari, a cultural journey, or a tailor-made East African experience, I look forward to helping you discover the very best that Rwanda, Uganda, and the region have to offer.

Overview of your Kigali tour

The perfect track for Uganda great apes Mountain Gorillas and other special primates. Gorilla Trekking are a magical and a mind-blowing experience because one hour you spend observing and enjoying them eating and grooming is a once in a lifetime experience you will never forget. A moment you will live to treasure for the rest of your life. This highlight is interspersed with some rest and recuperation days relaxing in wonderful Rwandan and Uganda scenery. From my experience, trekking those primates is an extraordinary and breath-taking moment.
