Kigali, Rwanda’s capital and largest city is the cleanest city in Africa. Rwanda also is considered to be the safest country on the continent, making it an ideal destination for solo travelers and families alike.
“Rwanda isn’t usually at the forefront of people’s minds. When people do travel to the continent it is the popular countries, like Ghana, Nigeria, Tanzania (Zanzibar), or South Africa.
“Rwanda offers travelers a range of adventurous activities, like Nyungew Park and Volcano Park. It’s a landlocked country from which you can easily travel to other countries. If you are going to Rwanda, it may be ideal to also travel to Uganda, Tanzania or Kenya.”
Spend the first day getting refreshed & in the evening, head over to Repub Lounge for local Rwandan food.
Cooking Class and Kigali City Tour. You can spend the morning enjoying a cooking class at the Nyamirambo Women’s Centre. Here, you will learn how to cook local Rwandan food, including matoke, green banana, cassava, sweet potatoes, Doda, and cabbage mix. If you are a foodie, this is an absolute must.
After the cooking class, head to the Belgium Museum, where 10 Belgian UN soldiers were killed while protecting the moderate prime minister before the start of the genocide.
Finish the day at the Kigali Genocide Memorial, learning about the loss of millions of people. The bodies of over 259,000 Tutsi who were killed in the 1994 genocide are buried here. The genocide was a historical occurrence that changed the dynamics of the country. This is an incredibly emotional memorial to learn how the genocide affected the people.
It’s an early start, around a 5-hour drive to the Nyungwe National Park. We would suggest leaving around 5 or 6 a.m. Be sure to take waterproof hiking/walking shoes and a raincoat. You can stop and pick up a Rolex – not the watch, but the famous East African dish wrapped in a fried egg with chapati.
The park has a high altitude of up to 2,950 meters and an array of wildlife, including 310 bird species, chimpanzees, and baboons. 50 meters and an array of wildlife, including 310 bird species, chimpanzees and baboons.
Another early start. This is about a 3-hour drive from Kigali. You can leave around 9 a.m. and stop for some light snacks/street food.
Other activities at the Gorilla Garden Village include learning the history of Rwanda, learning hunting techniques, learning how to make banana beer, and learning the teachings of herbalist healers.
Visit Kigali Market, Gorilla trekking, and Harvesting tea tour.
And in the evening transfers to Tanzania.
