• 5Rwanda was the right way to start our Easy Africa trip!

  Our experience with Go Further was nothing short of stellar. Xavi and his team made it so easy to plan what felt like a very overwhelming set of decisions. They organized a 16-day trip across 3 countries (Rwanda, Kenya, and Tanzania), which included a great balance city tours and wildlife. Highlights from our city tour include the great restaurant recommendations, market tour, milk bar, and genocide memorial, which was incredibly meaningful to visit. Our guide, Eric, was stellar, so knowledgeable and warm, it felt like we were hanging out with family. I can’t recommend this group enough,

• 5A Unique & Insightful Tour with Eric

  We thoroughly enjoyed our city tour with Eric. He was an excellent guide—knowledgeable, kind, friendly, and passionate about sharing the stories and culture of Kigali. Eric's local insights and engaging personality made the experience even more special. The tour was an immersive journey through Kigali's local culture and hidden gems, offering a side of the city that many visitors rarely get to see. Far from the typical city tour, it was a unique and authentic experience that truly brought Kigali to life. Every moment was enjoyable, insightful, and memorable. Highly recommended for anyone looking to experience the authentic heart and soul of the city.

• 5One day in Kigali

  Eric was a wonderful guide! We took a day tour of Kigali and were able to truly experience the city. With Eric as our guide and driver, we felt completely safe exploring places we would not have visited on our own. We visited a local market, stopped at a traditional milk bar, and learned so much about Kigali’s history and culture. One of the highlights was driving up into the mountains for a breathtaking overlook of the city. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone wanting to understand the culture, history, and overall feel of Kigali — all in just one day!

• 5Kigali City tour

  Eric gave my mom and me an amazing day tour of Kigali City. We had such a great overall experience exploring the city with him. Not only did we feel completely safe throughout the tour, but Eric also introduced us to the beauty, culture, and history of Kigali in such a meaningful way. We got to see incredible art throughout the city, experience the local markets, learn about Rwanda’s history, enjoy the mountain views, and so much more. I especially enjoyed learning about the city while fully experiencing the local culture. It was truly an unforgettable experience, and I would highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Kigali!

• 5Unforgettable Kigali Experience

  I had the absolute best time touring Kigali with Eric. I was in Kigali for work with only a day to sightsee, and this experience did it all. Stops on the tour included -- a milk bar, a local market, a delicious lunch, Mt. Kigali, and the genocide memorial. In between all the stops, I got to learn about life in Kigali from a local (Eric is the best!). Everything was absolutely seamless, despite Kigali hosting the final day of the Tour du Rwanda. Eric navigated everything perfectly and made me feel right at home everywhere we went. I look forward to taking additional tours with Go Further on future visits to Kigali.

About Kigali

Kigali is Rwanda's capital, a tidy city on green hills in the middle of the country, with memorials, craft markets and routes to gorilla country.

Kigali spreads across several hills in the heart of Rwanda, at about 1,500 metres, so the air is mild all year. The Kigali Genocide Memorial tells the story of the 1994 genocide against the Tutsi and honours those buried there. The Kandt House Museum holds natural history displays in the house of the German colonial resident Richard Kandt, and the Inema Arts Centre shows contemporary Rwandan art.
