  • Kings Safari is top notch. Merarry had everything well organized and our trip was a dream come true. The itinerary was impeccably planned and well detailed. Our excursions were action packed and fun. The lodging was very nice and the staff delivered a great experience. The drivers (Joseph, Remy, and Edward) knew the way and were excellent spotters for wildlife. I have memories for a lifetime. Thank you everyone at Kings Safari for wonderful holiday!

  • When you hear the phrase "Trip of a Lifetime" it brings up many thoughts and feelings. Well, our trip to Uganda with Merarry and the team from Kings Safari's did not disappoint. It truly was a magical trip. Edward was a great "spotter" and driver. We saw so many fabulous animals and birds. The lodges, tours and boat trips were all excellent. King's Safari's made us feel so comfortable and well taken care of...thanks to the entire team. We loved it.

  • I had a wonderful time, and the safari/animal experience was amazing and organized. Our lodging was exceptional. Land Cruiser drivers were great and so very nice. I felt so comfortable and safe the whole time. Made new friends. Best trip ever! All was so very good. My only suggestion is more explicit information about bringing more cash and brand new dollar bills, not older and torn. Also, all the kinds of tipping so clients know more upfront have enough set a side. And how using credit card is so limited except paying hotel charges. I worried while on the trip about having enough to tip and to shop (wishing I'd brought more US dollars). Different from Europe travel. Thank you so much!

  • I wanted to thank you so much for hosting me and my friends on what truly was the trip of a lifetime. You were so kind and attentive during the whole trip, as were your three tour guides, Edward, Remy, and Joseph. We had such a fantastic time and have you and the guides to thank. I know you've been through so much, and therefore your leadership and hospitality are all the more amazing to me. Thank you so much for allowing me to be on yours and Jan's trip. I will never forget it! Best regards, Alicia

  • Simply excellent tour. Each park and hotel were different experience and the choice of activity superb. Our guides we knowledgeable and friendly. I would highly recommend King's Safaris to anyone looking to explore Uganda and its treasures. You cannot visit and explore Uganda on your own, you need a guided tour to make the most of your vacation.

  • While living in Rwanda for six months, Merarry at King Safaris organized all of our trips within Rwanda, including our 15 guests who came to visit us. Gorilla's, safaris, city tours, airport VIP collection and much, much more - King Safaris is the number one for any tourism needs in Rwanda. Everything was organized and executed to perfection, every single time. And most of all Merarry is the greatest guy you'll ever meet. We are now lifelong friends!

  • I cannot begin to tell you how highly I recommend King’s Safaris - all the staff was outstanding. Merarry went above and beyond in making our trip memorable and special. And he was phenomenal in taking extra care with us after we tested positive for COVID! His attention to detail was exceptional but what I will remember most is his caring personality. I now feel like I have friend from Kigali and plan on staying connected.

  • Our family had the most amazing and memorable time, truly a once in a lifetime experience! That will be with all of us forever thanks to Merarry Kanyesigye and King's Safaris. Merarry guided our family on an incredible gorilla trek in the Virunga Mountains. His professionalism and expert knowledge...along with he and his staff's wonderful organization made our gorilla experience fun, exciting and simply something that is hard to express unless you are there. We will definitely return and have kept in touch with Merarry and his staff who remain dear friends of our family and a part of our lives forever. Thank you, Allison and Jack Nicklaus II and family.

  • Merarry maintains deep relationships with the hotel and tourism leaders in Rwanda which allows for exceptional access to the most desirable accommodations and destinations. Additionally, Merarry demonstrates the very definition of a can do attitude, always finding a way to “make it happen”. As such, Merarry has earned my highest recommendation as an exceptional host when traveling to Rwanda.

  • Merarry made our trip to Rwanda absolutely unforgettable! He had the skill set to create a once in a lifetime adventure that was both personal and comprehensive. His outgoing and charming personality made all our interactions fun, interesting and educational. Rwanda is an incredibly unique and special country and definitely worth a visit. Trekking to see the gorillas up close, a helicopter ride over the lush countryside, meeting and getting to know the people and school children of Rwanda, and touring the genocide museum were incredible highlights. If you plan a trip with Merarry, you won't be disappointed!

  • I would highly recommend King’s Safaris for your future travel plans. Speaking of getting back to traveling and if Africa is on your list, my good friend Kanyesigye Merarry is amazing and will create an outstanding trip for you! Merarry was the Tour Director on our trip in 2018 with Jack and Suzi. Mountain Gorillas, Safaris, Hot Air Balloon rides above Akagera National Park. Merarry is the consummate professional with a meticulous attention to detail and his team is top-notch. He put together a fabulous comprehensive trip for us highlighting the very best Rwanda has to offer. From our life-changing trek to visit the amazing, gentle Mountain gorillas and Golden monkeys in Volcanoes National Park, exciting safari drives through Akagera National Park, enjoying the beautiful Intore ballet dancers and Ingoma drummers at Nyanza King’s Palace, watching tea leaves being hand-harvested and processed at the Gisakura Estate to our poignant visit to the Kigali Genocide Memorial, there is much to see and learn about this “Land of a Thousand Hills”.

  • “We had the experience of a lifetime in Rwanda thanks to the wonderful people at King’s Safari. From airport arrival to a tour of the bustling city of Kigali, from gorilla trekking in the Virunga Mountains to outstanding safari drives at Akagera NP, from the luxury accommodations to the lovely road trips across the country, every detail was covered and every moment was special. Paul and Merarry were absolutely the best guides, confidants, curator of memories, escorts, and new friends across the globe. It was such a special vacation, thank you! “– Dawn & John Moore
