Harpers & Queen
"Excellent visit - only much too short. Guide outstanding."
Baroness Chalker, ex British Minister for Africa
"Excellent in every way. The guide’s fantastic knowledge of birds was an extra bonus."
Chairman, Financial Times
"The trip was flawless"
Jack Hannah, Animal Adventures.
"Volcanoes Safaris has taken a sector-wide approach to their vision of improving the tourism infrastructure in Rwanda: rather than focusing solely on their part of the business, they have worked to the belief that improving the entire sector will have benefits for all involved - and ultimately for local communities as well."
BLCF Managers
"Wow... What a breathtaking, beyond all expectations, professional, emotional and privileged trip of a life-time we have just experienced."
"The lodges were out of this world. Who would think an establishment with no mains water, electricity or drainage would rank in our top hotels in the world list?"
"The quality of the lodges we stayed at or visited were first class, the food was good as well. Our local guides were very well educated and articulate."
"The trip was fantastic. I was very pleased with the quality of the driver….Paul was courteous, knowledgeable, accommodating, and most important, safe."
VIRUNGA LODGE, RWANDA
"The best lodge in Africa"
Senator Frist, Majority Leader, US Senate
"Organic bush chic rather than transatlantic luxury, this is...the finest lodge anywhere in Rwanda."
Bradt Guide to Rwanda
"We have been to heaven."
"I haven't seen such a nice and luxurious camp at all -even in Kenya! The scenery was magnificent, the rooms were very spacious, very clean and much comfortable. And there was even massage offered after the tiring trekkings. The most I liked about it was the eco-friendly setup of the whole lodge. The staff were very nice and hospitable, always kept asking whether I had any request -which I would miss after I got back home. The meals were very delicious. So overall I liked it very much and would recommend anybody who is trying to choose the best place to stay around Volcanoes National Park. It wasn't for the ones who really want to stay very close to the park, but that was the thing which made the view like heavens, staying on top of all the fields, lakes and facing with the magnificent volcanoes. I cannot compare this to any view I have ever seen (maybe a little bit resembling to Norway great fjords, but the mild weather at Rwanda can not be compared at all)."
"Perfect in every way"
"Excellent, we were treated like royalty!"
"The most wonderful place in Africa"
"Magical setting and the most gracious hospitality"
"especially the Volcanoes lodges were amazing. In fact, I think the Volcanoes lodge was the best place I have ever had the pleasure of enjoying myself at. Every need and want is taken care of and the views are more than amazing, its like a little piece of heaven there...Virunga Lodge and safari company was excellent throughout and top notch. I have been fortunate to travel greatly in my short life so far but this experience tops every other experience...Sitting around the fireplace at the lodge at night being treated like kings and queens our group laughed, shared, enjoyed and grew to become a sort of family after our experience that none of us will ever forget."
"The Virunga Lodge exceeded my expectations for an eco lodge. The staff were the most pleasant, service oriented, and helpful of any resort or lodge I have stayed. The gorilla treks were a once in a life time experience"
BWINDI LODGE, UGANDA
