Very Professional, Caring and accommodating.
5/5

We had an awesome stay in Rwanda because that gentleman Oreste stays on emails and WhatsApp 24/7. We have different times zones but we engaged with Oreste any time we wanted him to make adjustments on our trip.
My wife wanted particular places she had searched for on google and she wanted to go in all these corners. This company was so caring and professional because we reached everywhere we wanted and felt very safe.
When you visit Rwanda, request for the Bisoke Hike, we took beautiful photos in this place, mountain gorillas are very gentle creatures, we loved to stay with them a full hour. Lake Kivu is a cool place to relax after your safari and before your departure.
When you think about visiting Rwanda, email these guys, it is a very accommodative team with incredible guides. And ask for David to be your guide.

Gorilla trekking in Rwanda absolutely amazing!! Highly recommend this agency.
5/5

Planning my trip with Yvonne and the Hermosa life tours team in this period of the pandemic was the best choice for me. It seemed hard at first, but she made it even easy.
We exchanged thousands of emails and she took time to understand what I exactly wanted for a gorilla trek experience, this is something I wanted to do growing up and the dream came true. We went on a call to plan the trip even better; she was so patient with me and here I am to tell you about it, of course I did the trek twice, amazing.
I wish everyone could have this rare opportunity to observe the famous Rwandan mountain gorillas. Trekking the gorillas through the forested slopes of the Virunga is a magical experience.
So, any time I wish to see more of Africa, I would definitely go with this company ‘Hermosa life tours and Travel’ again.

Claude our guide was very professional and knowledgeable.
5/5

Hermosa Life tours treated us exceptionally well. We decided to go to Africa in February and took a big step to book this trip. We never thought it would work out well, we contacted this company through google and Oreste picked up our email swiftly. He suggested for us different programs to visit Rwanda and we took a five-day safari to the primates of Rwanda.

Excellent way to plan your trip to Rwanda.
5/5

It was by far the best safari we have had; we have travelled so many times I and my wife, in different countries but Rwanda was indeed something! we planned from last year with Oreste and Patrick, these two were incredible, quick on emails and hands on all the time. We enjoyed all our hotel amenities from Akagera National Park for safaris to Volcanoes the home of the huge gorillas.
Hermosa Life tours and travel is the best agency for your excellent trip planning in Rwanda. We shall keep telling our friends and family about these guys and we shall plan with them again in future. This was exactly what we were looking for when we started planning our Safari one year ago.

Very professional, serious and willing to accomodate.
4/5

Hermosa travels was excellent from the get go. Due to bank logistics, the date for rwanda gorilla trek filled up, but they accommodated an uganda trip that they dont usually do brcause i asked for it, and even refunded me cash. Everything was great and extremely professional.

Nice safari, tour guide was not the best
3/5

You get what you pay: amazing safari with beautiful landscapes! Saw so many beautiful animals, dream come true! I attended alone as a woman and I felt safe the whole time. It was very easy to communicate with them in advance via email.

However, I would maybe choose another tour operator since my guide was not the best. Our car broke down during safari and the guide was not that informative about the situation. He didn't listen my hopes (only thing I asked was that could we be back at the hotel 5 pm, didn't work....). I think for over 400 euros you are supposed to get what you ask. Btw, I asked these beforehand via emai and then they said that 5pm is just fine, just communicate with the guide but that's not how it went...
All in all, there are many tour operators and all of them offer the beautiful scenery and animals so you are gonna get better guide somewhere else. :/
