my guide Bosco was great, he did a thorough briefing before we even left my hotel and he was on time and very courteous. He was patient with all my questions and had answers for them all! Olivier the owner was in contact with me immediately via whats app after i booked the tour to confirm everything and again on the morning of the tour. The car also had wifi which was awesome

wunderschöner voller Tag interessant und angenehm

Nelli_A, Sep 2019

ein voller Tag in Kigali, mit Spaziergang in der Stadtmitte, Fahrt rund um die Stadt herum für Fotos und Aussicht, ein Drink mit Panoramablick inklusive in einem Hotel, Lederschuhe made in Rwanda haben wir auch gekauft, das Genocid Museum besucht, es war ein toller Tag . Sehr freundlicher Fahrer, konnte gut englisch, hat uns dann auch direkt im Flughafen gebracht als die Tour fertig war. Gemütliches SB Mittagessen unter Einheimischen war auch sehr nett. Das Auto komfortabel und angenehm klimatisiert mit gutem Wlan, danke an Olivier, der sich dauernd um uns gekümmert hat und an Bosco, der Fahrer.
