What are the best tours in Kigali?

Are guided tours in and around Kigali worth it?

Yes, guided tours in and around Kigali are definitely worth it. While the city has a reputation for being among Africa's cleanest and safest, local guides are your ticket to a more meaningful visit, whether you want to learn about mountain gorillas or the coffee industry.

Plus, some experiences, such as mountain gorilla trekking, are only offered on guided tours.
