Kigali City Tour & Genocide Museum

Kigali, a thriving African city, is renowned for its cleanliness, orderliness, and exceptional hospitality. It’s not just a city, but an ideal stopover before or after a safari in Rwanda. Being the capital city, it’s strategically located in the country’s geographical center, making it a convenient hub for exploring the rest of Rwanda.

One of the most notable landmarks in Kigali is the Kigali Genocide Memorial, which provides important insights into Rwandan history. This museum commemorates the mass killings of 1994, which were part of the country’s civil war between the Tutsi and Hutu. The memorials serve as poignant reminders of the genocide against the Tutsi and other victims of the war. Despite this tragic history, Rwanda has emerged as one of Africa’s most peaceful and secure nations, with a solid commitment to peace and reconciliation.

While in Kigali, visitors can enjoy a variety of activities such as experiencing traditional Rwandan coffee, ziplining on Mount Kigali, riding quad bikes on rugged trails, learning traditional beading, and trying their hand at traditional basket weaving.
