1-daagse Canopy Walk Adventure in Nyungwe Forest National Park

Our guide Darius gave us a lot of useful information to make the long hours travel faster. We were enchanted by the hike in the forest and on the canopy suspension bridges (with another local guide). We also had the chance to meet many monkeys! Our only regret is not being able to visit the King’s Palace due to unforeseen events during the day.

Benoit was a great driver and Daniel was an amazing guide at the park. The forest is beautiful. However, for those who want some adventure, the Canopy trail is pretty short and easy, so I would recommend the pink trail (with the mahogany trees), which was WAY more interesting to me.

Claude was a great driver and guide. It was a long drive but had amazing views of the national park from the canopy walk and saw some monkeys. Will come back soon for the zip line!!

Long day but worth it with excellent guide. It’s an unavoidable long day to travel to the canopy, walk and back from Kigali. But the guide made it work, and was good company and knowledgeable. Definitely a worth while experience and highly recommended.

Darius was absolutely amazing!!! He is so kind and educational. He made our trip light weight and easy. He was so much fun and made our Kigali trip very interesting. Thank you so much Darius!!

Darius is an incredible tour guide - full of laughter and knowledge making this trip even more breathtaking! Although it was an early start, the morning drive to the forest was blissful, and the canopy experience was challenging yet rewarding. I would 100% recommend booking this tour if you want to experience the natural side of Rwanda and have fun with the best tour guide I have ever had!

I had a very good experience with Usalama Tours. My driver had to pick me up very early as it was a long drive from Kigali to the forest and we had to be back by evening, but he was great company all along the way, letting me doze off a little at first and then engaging in pleasant conversation when I woke again, pointing out some noteworthy sights on our journey and gamely stopping whenever I asked to take pictures. The canopy walk itself was well worth the drive: although the hike was only 90 minutes or so in total, it provided beautiful, panoramic views of the rain forest below and around us, and our tour guide was knowledgeable and charming. I didn't see any monkeys from the suspension bridge, but there was no shortage of them along the road leading in and out of the park and ample opportunities for photos. The entire experience felt very professional and relaxed, would definitely recommend

Do not miss an opportunity to take this amazing Canopy Walk. Unfortunately my husband was under the weather and couldn’t join me. It was beautiful. I was a bit nervous and wanted to challenge myself and am so happy I did. To say that Darius went out of his way to help me make this happen is an understatement. He knew I was nervous and was very encouraging. We had a lot of driving time which allowed for many conversations regarding Rwanda. He answered all of my questions regarding history, culture, daily life etc. I would do it again in a heartbeat!

Amazing experience! Darius was very friendly, entertaining and knowledgeable. Highly recommend if you’re visiting Rwanda!

This experience was amazing! I would specifically ask for Darius as a guide —— great guy. The walk through the treetops was exhilarating and the hike was just the right length.
