Unforgettable 5-Day Rwanda Adventure with Iriza Tours - Ange from Iriza Tours helped us plan our 5-day adventure in Rwanda, and it was absolutely worth it. We had been dreaming of visiting Rwanda for almost two years, and when the time finally came, we thought we could plan everything ourselves. But that changed quickly. We started with a city tour in Kigali, which we booked on TripAdvisor through Iriza Tours. It was such an amazing experience that we realized we needed help planning the rest of our trip. With 7 days left, I reached out to Ange, the manager of Iriza Tours, for advice on what to do next. She asked if we’d like her to handle the entire itinerary so we could simply relax and enjoy the trip. She also asked about our budget and if we wanted to include gorilla trekking. I said, “Go ahead, add everything possible!” That was the best decision we made. Everything went smoothly from start to finish. Our guide, Emile, was fantastic — knowledgeable, friendly, and always ready to share insights about Rwanda. If you’re planning a trip to Rwanda, especially for gorilla trekking, I highly recommend Iriza Tours. They made our dream trip a reality!

One Hour with the Gorillas: A Life-Changing Experience in Rwanda - After an incredible safari in Kenya and some relaxation in Zanzibar, I decided to make a stop in Rwanda for a one-day gorilla trek with Iriza Tours and it was the best decision of my trip! Spending a full hour up close with these amazing creatures, who share 99% of our DNA, was a truly unforgettable experience. Iriza made everything smooth and memorable. It’s an adventure I’ll never forget and one I’d recommend to anyone visiting East Africa!
