          Our driver guide will pick you from your hotel in Kigali at 04h00 am, and then drive to Volcanoes National Park in northwestern Rwanda (the drive lasts 2h). Arriving on time for registration and briefing about your Mount Bisoke hike activity at park's headquarters. The starting point is at an elevation of 2,700 meters above the sea level, walk through the local communities and the farmlands at the edge of the park for about 15 minutes before crossing the stone wall into the park. Take on the hiking trail and trek through the different vegetation zones along the volcano ranging from little bamboo that ends at 2,800 meters, through hagenia hypericum from 2,800 to 3200 meters, to sub alpine at the top. At 3711 elevation, Finally get to summit which is flat with a big Crater Lake measuring about 400 meters of diameter and estimated depth of about 100 meters. Eat your packed snacks and embark on the trek back down, a faster one but slippery. Have lunch, and drive back to Kigali.

          Definitely ticks all the boxes for a bucket list must-do
          This was one of those "bucket list" tours. I was in Rwanda for a conference, and went along with some of the other delegates. Very difficult to identify any negatives. The driver/guide was knowledgeable and friendly, and we saw such a wide range of wildlife up close it was unreal. I think the most impressive was the male elephant who casually strolled out in front of us, completely unfazed by the humans in the large 4x4 behind him. Large numbers of giraffe congregated at one point, saw some lions doing what lions do - lazing in the sun, not unlike how my old cat used to do back home! Zebra, Rhino, Hippo, all made an appearance. The roads in the national park can be a bit bumpy in places, and I would recommend taking a camera, say a digital SLR so you can get the longer range shots that just are not the same as using a smart phone, as the SLR will have a better zoom. There is a well known saying, that if you think education is expensive, try ignorance. This trip couldn't be described as bargain basement, but it was certainly one that I wouldn't have missed for the world, and I'm so glad to have been there!

          Lifetime experience !
          This trip was one of the most memorable in my life. The communication from the booking process all the way to being picked up from our hotel in Kigali was really good. The guide was caring and knowledgeable and he made sure that we saw as much wild animals as possible.

          Excellent Choice for Safari in Rwanda
          This was a fantastic trip. Our guide and driver Mr Charif did everything he could to ensure the safari experience went above and beyond our expectations! From the first email we had constant clear and professional communication with the company and our allotted guide's enthusiasm for Rwanda, its people and wildlife was infectious and heart-warming. Booking with Vazquez Tours & Travel ensured a fabulous introduction to Rwanda and I will not forget it.

          Excellent, well-organised safari
          The guide, Phillipe, arrived at my hotel on time and everything was seamless throughout. Phillipe was extremely knowledgeable and communicated with other guides throughout the day to ensure I saw as much game as possible, including the Big 5. I have no hesitation recommending this company.

          Lake Kivu weekend Retreat
          Vazquez Tours and its founder Mr Theo planned an excellent trip for us to Lake Kivu based on our company’s bespoke needs. It was the best tour I’ve been on in a long time, and Mr Theo stayed with us to make sure everything happened on time and the activities were enjoyable. I would highly recommend booking a tour through his, he is incredibly knowledgeable and provides a personal touch to each trip.

          Gorilla Trek was Amazing!
          We were given Daniel's name and number for information about doing a gorilla trek from a friend. Daniel was the best! He made all the arrangements for us including getting the permits for the trek. We were in constant contact with Daniel prior to our trek. He answered all our questions and gave us all the information that we needed for us to have a successful experience. On the morning of the trek, we were picked up very early at our hotel by Daniel and a driver in a very nice, comfortable Land Cruiser. We were provided with water, an umbrella, and a breakfast from the hotel. Daniel was able to secure us a spot in a suitable group to hike up the mountain to see the gorillas. The trek was amazing! It is probably the best adventure we have had in Africa. It was unreal to be that close to the gorillas in the wild. Daniel and the driver with Vasquez Tours were very professional, friendly, and helpful. Our every need was met by them. I would highly recommend Vasquez Tours for your next adventure in Africa!

        A friend recommended me to contact Nshuti Daniel. and he was really of great help. He helped with the booking, and the hiking in bisoke, however challenging, was a memorable experience. Thank you very much for the guidance and encouragement. I can't believe I made it to the top!

        Upon arrival we were warmly welcomed by NSHUTI Danie , and we felt welcomed and with such a friendly atmosphere we had a fantastic start! The journey to Musanze and the Hiking of Bisoke was extremely good, Danie was very flexible (appreciate this!) and for that He deserves a special thanks. We had a great day there, which obviously also added up to the experience.

        Nshuti is such a warm personality and highly motivated with what he does (recommendable!).

        The weather was beautiful and it was a great experience to hike in such environment.To spot some gorillas by chance and for free at the end going back was a great way to end the tour.

        All respect for Nshuti who does a great job here in Rwanda; a true sample of excellent Travel and tour guide!

        Many thanks again and I recommend Nshuti Danie to everyone!
