Jophride was great at customizing the trip for my onterests. His communications prior to and during the trip were great. He was organized, efficient, and kind and I couldn't have asked for a better experience and highly recommend Umurage if you are planning a trip to Rwanda.

Jophride's commitment to ensuring that everyone has the best tour possible is incredible. He is a passionate, kind, funny, organised and engaging tour guide. I cannot recommend him highly enough. In our short visit we were able to go Gorilla trekking, see the golden monkeys, and see some of Kigali, inc...

We had the most wonderful family adventure in Akagera National Park, all thanks to Umurage Eco Safaris. Jophride was our driver guide, and he was brilliant with the whole family, sharing fascinating insights about Rwanda’s conservation success story. The absolute highlight was almost spotting the legendary Big Five, the lions, elephants, buffaloes, rhinos, and only missed out on leopards. It was an incredible bonding...

I and other teachers working in Rwanda, we booked a trip to Akagera National Park with Umurage Eco Safaris, and it exceeded all our expectations. From the initial planning to the drop-off, everything was handled with the utmost professionalism. Our driver guide, Gerald, was exceptional. His knowledge of the park’s ecosystems and his ability to spot wildlife including the Big Five was incredible. He was patient, pro...

Jophride from Umurage Eco Safaris organized a perfect tour of Rwanda for us. The highlight was, of course, the encounter with the gorillas, but the visit with the chimpanzees and countless other encounters also fascinated us. Gerald was a perfect driver—safe, calm (even in the thick fog), and knowledgeable. We experienced sobering moments at the Genocide Museum, and not to forget the deeply uplifting moments visit...
