Kigali safaris

Things to do in Kigali

When you arrive in Kigali you'll see why it's often referred to as "Hillywood". This capital of Rwanda is a blend of modern comforts, culture, history but also thriving wildlife. Go exploring beyond the city in a safari with a local guide in a private tour with ToursByLocals. Get lost in one of the oldest rainforests in Africa, Nyungwe National Park, where from its 70m high suspension bridge you can take in spectacular views. No trip is complete until you go chimpanzee trekking. Nothing will ever compare to seeing these primates in such an environment. Head east to Akagera National Park, the only park in Rwanda where the "Big Five" can be found. It is also home to black rhinos and at Lake Ihema you can see pods of hippos. Friendly local guides offer a variety of tours but feel free to suggest alternative sights and activities. This is YOUR private tour experience with a flexible itinerary and schedule that can be customized to your needs.
