Von Trapp children sings Rwanda’s National Anthem
The Von Trapp children performed to a large crowd at the 2009 Gorilla Naming Ceremony in Rwanda. Eighteen baby gorillas were named at the ceremony by national and international dignitaries. The UN declared 2009 the “Year of the Gorilla.’ Major conservation efforts have allowed the amazing silverback families to thrive. The silverbacks are only found in Eastern Africa’s Virunga Mountains.

This is THE best tour company in Rwanda! - My husband and I had the absolute best experience with Amahoro Tours and highly recommend you book your Rwanda trip with them. Amos was extremely helpful and we fell in love with Rwanda in large part because we had such a great guide named Edmond who was very professional, prompt, and had a wealth of knowledge. He’s likely the best driver in the whole country so you should request him specifically! After visiting and working with other tour companies in Rwanda, Tanzania, and Zanzibar, we can confidently say Amahoro Tours was the best and we look forward to using them again in the future.

Rwanda is Amazing - Had a fantastic experience with Amahoro tours (through jenman safaris).
We got to see such amazing wildlife in Rwanda as well as some cultural/historical places like the genocide memorial/the king's palace/hotel des milles collines. The gorilla and chimpanzee trekking were real highlights. Accommodations were excellent!
And of course, thank you to our guide/driver Mugabe in helping us get to our various locations and explaining various aspects about Rwanda!
