Ride on the back of a bicycle 'African Taxi' through landscapes and heritage sites that shaped royal power. Hear monarchy stories in the palace. Watch everything you know about waste change: cow urine grows massive bananas, dung powers homes, banana stalks become sanitary pads. Two days meeting giants.

What are people saying about Kigali

Roger_L, Mar 2026

Simply Amazing

SIMPLY AMAZING. This tour experience with Shawn came highly recommended from a friend and I can see why. Shawn is very personable, and provides a unique way to see Mount Fuji. He genuinely cares about his guests’ experience and is strategic in his approach to ensure you can see Mount Fuji from different viewing points unlike many larger tours that are limited in observation areas (this can be challenging due to cloud conditions & weather). Shawn’s passion, knowledge, & approach is 1st class and I’d recommend him with confidence to anyone interested in seeing Mount Fuji & the waterfalls. The touch of local flare from the meal experience was also such a lovely bonus.

A Memorable Tour

We had an absolutely fantastic day touring the Mount Fuji Kawaguchiko area with Johnny! From the moment we met him, he was warm, friendly, and genuinely interested in getting to know us. He took the time to understand our preferences and thoughtfully tailored the tour to match what we enjoy most. Johnny’s knowledge of the area was incredible. He shared so many interesting facts and stories that really brought each stop to life. What made the experience even more special was his ability to take us beyond the typical tourist spots and introduce us to hidden gems we never would have discovered on our own. He was engaging, informative, and made the entire day feel effortless and fun. If you’re looking for a personalized, memorable experience around Mount Fuji, we can’t recommend Johnny highly enough. Truly a five-star guide!

Life experience unlocked!

Our guide, Kevin, with Countyside Tours is an animal whisperer! We were up close and personal with elephants, lions, zebras, rhinos, giraffes, hippos and more! He is a wonderful guide who knows how and where to spot the more elusive critters. Some of the highlights include lions approaching a mixed herd of prey, bull elephants sparring, and a big daddy bull elephant coming to the lake edge to hydrate! Our group included three women from the USA. We loved the entire safari experience and service we received. Beyond the animals, Kevin stopped at a great coffee shop/pizzaria/souvenir shop on the way to and from the park; talked to us about some of the villages we passed through, and was all around knowledgeable and friendly. Yes, it’s a bumpy road but you’re in a national park, it should be expected. Highly recommend the hour boat tour add on. The bagged lunch was meh. I recommend grabbing something from your hotel or the coffee shop on the way.

I had a great experience...

I had a great experience with Olivier for the Kigali city tour. Olivier is an incredibly kind and knowledgeable tour guide. I was traveling solo, the tour was myself and one other person and Olivier was happy to tailor the itinerary based on our preferences. He also took some great photos that he sent afterwards! It was a perfect activity for my first day in Kigali to get to know the city. I would absolutely book again and recommend to anyone!

Exceptional and breathtaking - a MUST!

My guide, Denys, was wonderful. He drove extensively around the national park where we saw a variety of animals Unfortunately, we were unable to find a lion but seeing a giraffe and a zebra in close proximity was truly unreal! We also saw crocodiles, hippos and tropical birds on the boat trip. Kudos must go to Denys and the tour group on the smooth handling and professionalism of organising this trip.
