    I loved this tour. The guides were very professional and kept track of everyone. The pace was good and we saw all the animals that we were supposed to see.

    My husband and I went to Africa for our honeymoon. We visited Rwanda and Uganda with Devine African Safaris. I was so excited to go on that trip since I have never been to Africa. All my friends told me about how great Africa is and I couldn’t wait to see for myself. Devine African Safaris did not disappoint. I saw the greatness of Africa through the amazing trip that Devine African Safaris organized for us. Nicholas the director worked with to come up with a perfect itinerary. Boaz was a perfect guide. The man is knowledgeable about everything in East Africa. He told us about the history, culture, and politics of the region. We learnt a lot from him. He was also so friendly and fun to be around that it made our honeymoon enjoyable. He was also professional and he couldn’t have given us better service. After 10 days with Boaz, he had become a close friend. We were sad to say good bye to him but we hope that we will see him on our next trip to Africa. Devine African Safaris exceeded all my expectations. We couldn’t have chosen a better company. Our honeymoon was a memorable experience because of Devine African Safaris.

    Choosing Devine African Safaris was the best decision I made. Boaz, my guide, picked me up from the Kigali international airport and transferred me to my Lemigo hotel. The actual safari started the following day with our drive towards Bwindi forest- home to some of the last remaining mountain gorillas. Boaz was knowledgeable about the culture, flora and fauna in East Africa. He was so easy to talk to that we became friends. He also could not stop talking about his country, Uganda. He told me about the people there, and the best sites to visit while I was there. We also visited Queen Elizabeth and Kibale National Parks which are lovely attractions with a wide variety of land & water animals as well as birds. During our trip we stayed at lovely hotels booked by Devine African Safaris. The hotels were comfortable and provided breakfast. We were always on time, because of Boaz’s excellent professionalism. I couldn’t be happier with the company’s choice of hiring Boaz. I highly recommend Devine African Safaris for any trip that you want to make.

    My family had an amazing trip to Uganda thanks to Devine African Safaris. Nicholas the owner went above and beyond to ensure we had fun by organizing an itinerary that was tailored to our needs and wants. Herbert, our guide, picked up the four of us from Kigali, Rwanda and drove us to Uganda’s Bwindi Impenetrable National Forest for gorilla trekking. My teenage boys had a lot of questions that Herbert answered patiently. He was very informative on the culture of his people, We were booked at Mutanda Lake Resort, a beautiful place near Bwindi Impenetrable National Forest. The lodge is gorgeous and has incredible views of the forest, hills and the lake around it. In the morning, we went gorilla trekking in the forest. It was an amazing experience. We were amazed to see the gorillas up close. We had so much fun that they could not stop talking about the gorillas. Herbert facilitated the trek assisted by the forest rangers and he was an excellent guide. We had magical views that were unforgettable along the trek. The next day, we visited Queen Elizabeth National Park where we saw lots of animals including a rare sighting of a leopard crossing the road, elephants with their young, buffaloes, lions on trees, giraffes, and many more animals. The boat ride in Kazinga channe was another awesome experience, riding close to hippos and watching abundant wildlife on the banks of the channel. We did not want to leave and our only regret was that we should have booked a longer safari. Thank you super guide Herbert and Devine African Safaris who gave us an experience we will never forget.
