Amazing, shocking, beautiful - We had an amazing and unforgettable time on our city tour. Our guide Jean Paul was incredibly patient and helped us connect with the country and people. We loved that we didn't only go the tourist spots and that entrance and food costs were included in the price. Great for people like us on a budget. It was worth the cost and we would recommend this tour to anyone.

A great way to get to know Kigali! - Shadady Nzirorera was a great guide sharing lots of local stories along the tour. Countryside Tours Rwanda was very accommodating and inclusive for this solo traveller.

Great Experience!! - Olivier and Cedric were our guides on this tour we took with friends at the end of a conference. They were on time, friendly, knowledgeable and adaptable. I made changes to our reservations 3 times and Olivier was always flexible in making changes. The meal and refreshments were fantastic. The tour to the local market was also excellent. Highly, highly recommended.

Great taste of Kigali - Was only passing through Rwanda for a couple of days and wanted to absorb some of the culture and and city sights. Shaddaddy was our guide, he was professional, friendly and energetic. I'd recommend this tour if you're not familiar with Kigali as it gives you a variety of experiences in the city. We ended the tour with a beer on a rooftop with some incredible views of the city before we were dropped off back at our hotel.

Very pleasant intro to Kigali - Wonderfully paced tour arranged by Olivier, that introduced locations of prominence in Kigali and its surroundings, including time at the Memorial. A wealth of information and insights were shared, and the refreshment stops were at places highly regarded in their own right. The hospitality and professionalism shown by Countryside made immediately booking an additional tour with this outfit an easy choice.
