Interesting and informative - We were able to visit several galleries with Aline and gained interesting insights. The tour ended in one of the car-free streets with a great restaurant recommendation.

Sunday morning enjoyment! - Aline was very informative, professional and had a lovely personality. The art galleries and co-operatives we visited en route were all interesting and had their own unique story.
Aline was a great story teller and had her own unique sense of humour.
I thank her for suggesting we could use YEGO motorcycles as an option to get to each gallery site. What total fun!

Wonderful Experience on the Fashion Tour! - Aline is an amazing tour guide. She was flexible, deeply knowledgeable and was able to ensure I got the best deals during the fashion tour. I would absolutely book again with Aline next time I'm in Kigali.

This was a great way to spend part of a day! I recommend it to anyone interested in art and culture! - It was amazing to meet many of the artists and talk to them about their work. The art will not disappoint! There is a large range of styles , and while I was not anticipating buying any paintings, I ended up with three! I can’t wait to add them to my collection at home. Aline was a terrific guide, and she enhanced the overall experience. More fun than going alone! I had a car from the hotel but next time might try the motorbiking!

Great way to see Kigali - Fun way to see and experience Kigali with a local. Aline is warm and fun. It was like spending the afternoon with a girlfriend, not a paid guide. Due to airline complications, I found myself with a day alone in Kigali. Being a woman alone in a strange city can be a little scary, so it was nice to find a woman guide

Colorful, inspiring experience - Aline’s art tour was one of the best experiences I had in Kigali! I love art, colors, and talking with artists about their inspiration. This tour gave me all that and more. Aline has a gift for making you feel like a local, taking you beyond the usual spots. I left feeling inspired, connected, and full of creative energy. If you love art and want to experience Kigali’s vibrant scene in an authentic way or you are looking for an interesting art piece, don’t miss this!

Trust Aline as Your Guide - Traveling solo can sometimes be daunting, but my Kigali experience was transformed into a delightful adventure thanks to Aline. From the moment we met, her warmth and genuine enthusiasm made me feel like I was exploring the city with a longtime friend. Aline’s tour wasn’t just a checklist of landmarks; it was a deeply personal journey into the heart of Kigali. Her insightful commentary on the city’s history and culture, combined with her thoughtful gestures—like sending me a Kinyarwanda audio message for my moto taxi—showed a level of care that went above and beyond. If you’re looking for a truly authentic and heartwarming Kigali experience, Aline is the perfect guide. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Amazing Art and Lovely Tour Guide - Aline is such a lovely and personable guide. She went above and beyond, showing me all the most beautiful art and cultural monuments of Kigali. Even after the tour completed, we were able to grab lunch together and she became a close friend for the duration of my trip in Rwanda. I don't think I would have acclimated as well to the city had it not been for her. 1 100% recommend that you tour with Aline, she'll show you a side of Kigali and Rwanda that you'd have never seen otherwise.
