    · August 24th, 2025
    Our family of four booked with New Horizons for the 6 Days Rwanda-Uganda Gorilla Experience. We made a few changes to the 'standard' itinerary to suit our preferences and New Horizons were very accommodating and responsive to our requests. The tour itself was an amazing experience, combining wildlife tours while also learning of Rwandan/Ugandan culture. Hotels and food options were also excellent. Our guide for the tour, Viateur, was absolutely fantastic. He took care of all of our needs and shared his own personal perspectives of life in eastern Arica. Hearing from local guides gave us a much broader experience on the tour and we very much hope to visit this part of the world again in the future.

    I loved both Rwanda and New Horizons. I didn't realize that, for this price, I would get such a personalized tour. New Horizons does not pack you together with a lot of people but provides a personalized travel experience. From the pick up in Kigali, to the selection of activities, everything was top notch. Of course I loved the Silverback Gorillas and Golden Monkeys, but the people and the beauty of Rwanda are worth experiencing alone. If there is something you particularly want to see or if you have specific date restrictions, just start emailing with Emmanuel or his co-founder, and I'm sure they will put something together that you will love.

    Booked my trip to Uganda with New Horizons. Did Gorilla treks at Mgahinga Gorilla Park and Chimpanzee trekking at Kibale with intoduction to Rwanda through touring the city of Kigali . From initial communications with Emmanuel i was able to customize my trip with my preferences and budget and my guide Jack did a great job to drive me through the rough African Massage roads. I truly appreciate thraveling with local companies and guides and New Horizon were amazing. Cant recommend enough!
