Kigali City & Genocide Memorial Tour

Morning visit to the Kigali Genocide Memorial — where over 250,000 victims of the 1994 genocide are interred. The permanent exhibition traces the history of Rwanda from pre-colonial times through the genocide and the country's remarkable reconciliation journey. It is emotionally intense but essential to understand modern Rwanda. After a reflective lunch, a walking tour of the Nyamirambo neighbourhood led by a women's cooperative — you'll help prepare a Rwandan lunch, learn traditional beadwork, and meet neighbourhood characters. Evening dinner at a modern farm-to-table restaurant showcasing contemporary Rwandan cuisine.

Morning coffee experience at Question Coffee Cafe — a women-run cooperative serving beans grown by 30,000 female Rwandan smallholders. Learn about coffee's role in Rwanda's economic rebirth, cup several single-origin Bourbons, and taste the difference altitude makes. Optional visit to the Presidential Palace Museum for insight into the events of 1994, or the Inema Arts Centre to meet contemporary Rwandan artists. Transfer to airport for departure.
