8 INCREDIBLE things to do in Kigali for under 15 USD
Kigali, Rwanda, is definitely one of the cleanest cities in Africa, if not the cleanest. A couple decades ago, most people had written Rwanda off but a visit to the country's capital opened my eyes to this gem! The city is set up on a landscape of hills hence the tag-name 'The City of A Thousand Hills' which makes for splendid viewing especially at night when the lights give the illusion of a city sprinkled by starlight. I spent a couple of days in Kigali and came up with 8 things anyone can do in Kigali under 15 USD that include:
- A motari city ride.
- Eating 'akabenz' which is a popular dish among the locals.
- Renting a mushanana; cultural dress for locals.
- Visiting the INEMA Arts Center
Among many other enjoyable activities guaranteed to make you experience and enjoy the Rwandese way of life. Have you ever been to Kigali? Is it on your travel bucketlist?

A Tourist guide to Kigali, the capital of Rwanda

My arrival into the Rwandan capital coincided with the 18th anniversary of the Genocide. I check into the Top Tower Hotel and see the sights, including a city centre walk, a trip on the back of a motorbike taxi, a visit to the Genocide Memorial Centre, and a beer in the Milles de Collines, the hotel made famous by the movie 'Hotel Rwanda'.

Travel Video | East Africa | Rwanda Kigali - City of 1000 Hills | Places to Visit
Hey guyz!
So recently i travelled to East Africa and many of you have been asking about my travel route and destinations visited. Here's a little sneak peek!
RWANDA KIGALI -
Kigali is a thriving African city known as the city of 1000 hills and notable for its cleanliness, greenery orderliness, and hospitality.
Places Visited:
1. Lake Muhazi | Jambo Beach - Lake Muhazi is a Kinyarwanda name and this thin shallow lake is located along the eastern side of Rwanda. It takes a two and a half hour drive distance from Kigali. It's also a few kilometres away from the Uganda border of Kagitumba and the Tanzanian border of Kisumu.
Most people visit Muhazi to experience the famous Jambo Beach Restaurant that is on the shores of the Lake.
2. Pili Pili Bar & Restaurant - Even though the food and service are both really good, the best thing about Pili Pili is the view and the general atmosphere of the place taking in what seems like a panoramic view of the entire city. It’s probably the best place in Kigali for a full view of the sunset in the giant sky. It’s reasonably priced, they have a big screen for sports, and it’s all wrapped up into the package of an interesting building with nice service.
3. Bambino Super City - Bambino is a place of beauty, tranquility and comfort. As it is the only amusement park found in Rwanda, Bambino is home to a wide range of exciting rides for both kids and adults and is about 22km from the city centre.
4. Fazenda Sengha - Fazenda is an outdoor recreational center on the outskirts of Kigali. Perched at the top of Mt. Kigali with sweeping views, this ranch has horseback riding, zip lines, trail ride, archery & trampolines.
5. Gisenyi - Gisenyi is about a three hours drive, and is perfect for a weekend get-away. The city features a resort on the shores of Lake Kivu, with several hotels and three sandy beaches. The area is also known for water sports.
Other places i visited not captured in the video:
6. Kigali Convention Centre - It is just 5 kilometers from the bustling city center and Kigali International Airport.The complex’s egg-shaped dome and ribbon-striped hotel are a familiar sight to Kigali residents and a point of pride for the city.
7. Kigali Heights Shopping Mall - Kigali's premier mixed-use development offering the country's first Grade A offices and world-class retail experience.
8. Genocide Memorial Museum - Giant wall displays, archival documents, photos, video footage and weapons encased in glass, the indoor exhibit sheds light on the Rwandan genocide, as well its pre-colonial, colonial and post-colonial roots.
9. Piazza Bar - The Piazza Bar on the roof of the Convention Centre was actually a nice surprise! It is right underneath the brightly lit dome. There’s also an absolutely huge big screen TV (probably the largest in the city) that was playing football at first and then moved on to music videos.
10. Peoples Bar - This is a premier night spot in Kigali and much of its reputation derives from the fact that it’s the only bar that operates seven days a week.
11. Zaaffran - There are a few excellent Indian restaurants in Kigali and Zaaffran, is the pick of the lot. It specializes in Authentic Indian food.
12. Casino Kigali - It’s relaxed, the staff are nice and it’s just something different to do on a night out with a group of friends.

10+ Things Rwandan Hotels Could Improve On | Work Trip | Kigali
Coffee is important!! :D
The criticism part starts at around 5:52. Maybe I'm on the road a little too long at that point - small issues start to get to me /o.
Rwanda was really nice, especially because the food was really good and the people were really nice and welcoming. We had many social gatherings and I was able to see Kigali, some cafés, downtown and surrounding areas.
The Rwanda travel is a continuation of my Uganda travel, which can be viewed here in 3 parts:

Kigali , the beauty of Rwanda
Not only is Kigali beautiful, but it is also the clean and safe capital city in Africa . The fact that it is so green and hilly adds to the aesthetic allure of the place. It is not surprising that Kigali is considered to be one of the most liveable cities in Africa. With impressive urban development plans and efficiency in road construction, Kigali has become a well organised and structured city that gives its visitors and inhabitants a feeling of peacefulness and serenity. Nothing beats the views that you get from the top of the numerous beautiful hills.
