Great tours!
We did two tours through Kigali Atlantis Tours - an Akagera safari and a gorilla trekking experience - and both were fantastic. The planning process was very easy. We had a phone call beforehand to discuss our interests and budget, and they handled all of the arrangements for us.
The accommodations at both locations were excellent, and our guide was always punctual, professional, and knowledgeable. The experiences themselves were incredibly well organized and exceeded our expectations. We had a wonderful time and would highly recommend this operator to anyone planning a trip to Rwanda.
