The trip

Kigali is a city of hills, and a private tour lets you see it at your own pace rather than on a group bus. The concierge builds the day around your interests: the city centre and its neighbourhoods, a craft and kitenge stop, a coffee, a quiet hour at the Kigali Genocide Memorial if you wish to visit it, lunch, and the drive back to the villa.

A private driver stays with you for the day, so the plan can change as you go. The route, the guide if you want one and the fee are confirmed before you confirm. Guests often do the tour on their first full day, to get their bearings before the rest of the trip.

Good to know

For a larger group, several villas can be booked together, and the concierge arranges it. Airport pickup can be arranged at any hour; the villas are about fifteen to twenty minutes from Kigali International Airport. Everything the concierge arranges is quoted before you confirm.

Arranged by your concierge

Ask the concierge for a private driver, a kitenge tailoring morning and restaurant bookings: each is arranged for a fee quoted before you confirm. Every arrangement is confirmed in writing before your stay.
