In 2000 when Joseph Birori had an idea to create a tour management company with one unescorted purpose to provide any traveler bored with mass tourism with exclusively unique and life changing experience tours, he named his idea Primate Safaris LTD
18 years later with more than 200,000 Primate and safari Tours under our belt in Rwanda, Uganda, DRC, Kenya or Tanzania and the idea continues to grow and is firm strong it has ever been.


We cater for the discerning traveller who is bored with mass tourism and seeks a more exclusive, personal and memorable eco-tourism experience

We were lucky enough to be linked with Primate Safaris via our Australian travel agent and we thoroughly enjoyed our three day visit. Sam, our driver and guide was so friendly, happy and a great advocate of his country. He was helpful, knowledgeable and met any of our requests with no trouble. We were looked after
I used this guide service for a one day gorilla trek to Volcanoes National Park and also for a three day Chimp tracking trip in Nyungwe Forest National Park in May/June 2017. From the beginning of the planning process Joy in the main office was quick and thorough in her responses and was quick to help
Organised by Trailfinders, the guys at Primate Safaris are great. Robert and Hussein met me on arrival at Kigali Airport and ran through the itinerary with me. Hussein was my driver and guide for the duration and he was a pleasure. Very knowledgeable, courteous and friendly, he gave me an great insight into Rwanda.
Primate Safaris served as our guides for the four days and 3 nights my wife and I spent in Rwanda. We received a superior level of service and were treated exceptionally well. Patrick was our guide. He met us at the airport and remained with us for the our entire visit. Patrick speaks 4 languages.
