Best Tour in Kigali - extra effort, worth every penny - I had an incredible experience on this tour in Kigali! It was a full-day adventure, running from 9 am to 4 pm, and we visited around ten different locations, with a stop for lunch to recharge. Each spot we visited felt thoughtfully chosen and showcased a different side of Kigali, from its bustling city life to the serene views just outside the city. Our tour guide truly made the experience unforgettable. As a local, he had an impressive depth of knowledge about Kigali’s history, culture, and hidden gems that even some residents might not know about. He shared fascinating stories and insights that gave me a much deeper appreciation for the city. His passion for Kigali really came through, and he knew exactly where to take us for the most stunning views and photo opportunities. I can’t recommend this tour enough—it’s the best way to experience Kigali if you want a well-rounded look at the city’s beauty and vibrant culture. Whether you’re a first-time visitor or someone who’s been here before, this tour offers something special. It’s hands down the best tour you’ll find in Kigali!

Flexible and friendly private tour of Kigali - Taking advantage of a long layover via Rwanda air, we decided to book a last minute tour of Kigali. My main problem was that I didn't know which hotel we would be given by the airline until we arrived. But the tour operator replied immediately after booking and offered the flexibility of waiting til the last minute to find out where to pick up. Our guide, Christian, was early, friendly, had a great comfortable SUV to take us around in, and was an amazing guide, full of information about Kigali. We really got a flavour of the place in a short time. We also could decide to alter the schedule to accommodate our jetlag (like finding great coffee first!). So can heartily recommend these tours and operator.

First Time in Rwanda - This was an amazing experience. The tour guide (Shadadi) gave a detailed explanation of every area we passed through, which enriched the experience for me. I will definitely recommend this tour to any one visiting Rwanda for the first time.

An absolute must while in Kigali. Worth every penny! - Just wow! This tour was amazing! Our guide, Shadady, picked us up at 5am and from the original meeting he was great. He explained to us the culture of Rwanda and answered any of our questions on the journey to Akagera. Once in the park, he must have been our good luck charm. We started by seeing waterbuck and baboons and then he took us to where there was a reported sight of a lion, we managed to get a glimpse as it slept under a tree. He then took us down the road a bit further before saying he would circle back to the lion, knowing we were desperate to see more now. It was then here we met an elephant in perfect view. The luck continued as we continued our game drive and we ended up seeing all of the big 5 in one day!! The highlight was seeing a leopard chasing two bushbucks in a hunt. Shedady was patient whilst we witnessed the animals but also extremely informative about each one. We couldn’t fault our day at all from the lunch, to the animals, to the information that was shared with us. You know it’s impressive when the guide is in shock too.

Wonderful overview of Kigali and surrounds - We had a great private drive everywhere imaginable with this tour. We saw the modern mall and the daily open market. We went past the enormous bus station which is central transportation hub. We stopped at a wonderful art gallery. We drove through upper class neighborhood and walked both pedestrian malls. Our guide Richard was very knowledgeable and patient answered all of our questions Perfect way to feel we better understand the city and culture. Thank you - recommend
