Begin your trip by meeting your guide at the Kigali Serena Hotel. After a short introduction and orientation, depart from the hotel to begin your cultural and historical tour of Kigali.

Your first destination will be the Kigali Genocide Memorial, one of the most important historical sites in Rwanda. Learn about the history of the genocide, the events that led to it, and the journey of reconciliation and unity that Rwanda has undertaken since then.

After completing the visit to the Genocide Memorial, proceed to Kimironko Market, one of the largest and most vibrant local markets in Kigali. Explore a wide variety of local products, including fresh fruits, vegetables, grains, spices, and handmade goods.

Focus on traditional products, such as local fabrics, crafts, baskets, and other items that reflect Rwandan culture and creativity. Interact with local vendors, observe traditional trading practices, and better understand the economic activities that support many Rwandan families.

Following the market visit, move on to explore the slums and older neighborhoods of Kigali, where you will be able to see what is often referred to as “old Kigali.” Gain insight into how Kigali has grown over time and how some communities have lived and adapted through different periods.

After this meaningful experience, head to Mount Rebero, known as one of the highest points in Kigali. Enjoy a panoramic view of Kigali City, capturing the beauty of Rwanda’s hills, modern infrastructure, and green landscapes.
