We also run films and documentaries which provide insights into African and global history, culture and politics. It is an opportunity for guests and hosts to share their perspectives.

We provide tours in Rwanda and the region (Congo, Uganda). They include group safaris, gorilla tracking, volcano climbing, coffee or tea plantations and inter cultural excursions (basket weaving, beer making, pottery, cooking lessons etc.)

Beautiful space a little outside of the city. The rooms are comfortable and the food is so delicious! The staff was very helpful too. It’s a quick ride to the main parts of the city.

Wonderful staff and great breakfast. I got upgraded to a nice room than booked due to it being available during my stay. Had a comfortable stay here and would have extended it if I stayed in Kigali for longer. Thank you!
