Kigali City Tour With Museums And Markets And Culture

I highly recommend anyone visiting Kigali to take the city tour. The day was extremely impactful and one we will not forget anytime soon learning about the history of Rwanda, exploring the new and old city, and taking in the views. Our guide Henry was amazing. He was extremely knowledgable sharing local insight, helping order local food and being flexible with our times given flight delays. After this tour, we were both so inspired by the city and country and hope to be back one day soon.

Gad did an amazing job of showing me around Kigali! There was so much to see and he was patient and had a positive attitude the entire day. He even provided recommendations after my tour. I loved walking through old town and exploring different areas in Kigali. And he effortlessly guided me through the markets. It doesn’t get any better than this!

This day trip truly lived up to Rwanda's nickname. Just like the "Land of a Thousand Hills," this six-hour journey was—quite literally—a series of ups and downs. Gad, my guide, was very attentive throughout the tour and constantly ensured that I had everything I needed. A truly enriching tour.

Gad our tour guide was exceptional!! He was kind, patient, and filled with knowledge! He made us feel like we had been friends forever!

Great to experience the city with a guide/driver who lives and works in the area. The Genocide Museum is powerful and unforgettable

Really enjoyed the tour! The guide was friendly and knowledgeable, and the markets, museums, and culture made it a great way to experience Kigali. Highly recommend! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

We had such an amazing time. Gad was an excellent guide and driver and was so friendly and informative. The tour hit on the major places in Kigali and due to one of group being a bit under the weather, he adjusted our experience so that we were all comfortable. I wish all of my guides were like Gad. This company is the real deal and would absolutely use them again.

🌍 Incredible Layover Experience in Kigali, Rwanda – A Must-Do City Tour! 🌍 I had an unforgettable time exploring Kigali during my layover, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. The Kigali City Tour, with its perfect mix of history, culture, and local life, was the ideal way to make the most of my short stay in Rwanda’s vibrant capital. 🏛️ Museums That Tell a Powerful Story The tour included visits to some of Kigali’s most meaningful museums, including the emotionally moving Kigali Genocide Memorial. The displays are thoughtfully curated and deeply insightful — a reminder of both Rwanda’s painful past and its inspiring journey of healing and unity. It was a sobering, educational, and necessary part of understanding the soul of the country. 🛍️ Bustling Markets & Local Life We explored lively local markets that were full of color, crafts, and friendly vendors. From fresh, fragrant fruits to beautifully handcrafted goods, the markets were buzzing with authenticity. It was a chance to connect with the everyday life and heartbeat of Kigali — full of energy, smiles, and a strong sense of community. 🎭 Rich Culture at Every Turn From traditional art to modern-day city spaces, Kigali blends old and new seamlessly. Whether it’s the cleanliness, the greenery, or the warm hospitality, this city is full of cultural pride and progressive spirit. 👍 Highly Recommend for a Layover If you're on a layover in Kigali, this city tour is a perfect way to make the most of your time. It was well-paced, informative, and absolutely worth it. ⭐ Special Shoutout to Gad – The Amazing Tour Guide! Gad made the experience unforgettable. Friendly, knowledgeable, and full of passion for his city, he gave us insights you won’t find in any guidebook. His storytelling brought Rwanda’s history and culture to life, and his positive energy made the tour feel personal and enriching.

So, the company were very quick to answer my enquiry about the Culture City Tour in Kigali but unfortunately I couldn't go the days they had space. So I borrowed their itinerary and it was superb. I also ran into the tour guide at the Genocide Memorial, he was friendly, the vehicle was great. So I didn't use the company, but I'd highly recommend joining them if you can. I told them I'd rate it since I borrowed it! 😁

Gad was a remarkable guide. He knows his country and city’s history, has masterful English, is a careful driver, and is highly sensitive to visitor’s needs. I feel lucky to have been lucky to spend a day with him via a TripAdvisor booking and Yambi Tours. He was 6 minutes early for my morning pick up. He was surprised I was ready and waiting. Our first stop, my request, was for a morning coffee. The day was lovely. Thanks, Gad!

We spent a wonderful first day in the Rwandan capital with our charming guide Gad. The visit to the Genocide Memorial is difficult but necessary (we spent two hours there). The various stops were varied and offered a beautiful overview of Kigali, with a tasty lunch being the cherry on top. Gad also gave us lots of information and useful advice. Urakoze cyane! :-)

The city tour with Yambi tours was awesome. Gad our tour guide was friendly, patient, and he made sure we had a good time. We visited the genocide memorial centre, niyo art centre, kimoronko market, mount kigali park, the city centre and the coffee centre. It was a fun filled experience.

Gad is a great guide having enthusiastically introduced and explained about the history and vibrancy of Kigaki. Very friendly!

We had a great time exploring Kigali with our guide Gad Glosby. At Kigali Memorial Museum we were able to just take our time to go through all the narratives regarding the dark times Rwanda went through. Gad was really patient and attentive. He allowed us to do the tour at our own pace without being rushed. As we were not really into art galleries, Gad was really accommodating and took us to Kandt House Museum instead which were fantastic. In overall I would highly recommend Gad as a tour guide and Yambi Tours

Great day trip to experience Kigali. Gad of yambi tours took me around a full day trip around Kigali and we get to see everything the city’s got to offer. Gad is an enthousiastic professional guide with a lot of knowledge about the capital. He even took me to other places I was interested about that was not on the initial itinerary. I can definitely recommend this trip.

This is a city tour that starts with the seriousness of the Genocide Memorial but then includes numerous stops for art and crafts and the must see Kimironko Market. My guide Gad was very knowledgeable and could answer all my questions beyond the many facts he shared. I liked that there was enough time at the Genocide Memorial to really listen to the audio guide and take in the information. Thank you to Gad for helping me bargain for some beautiful fabric at the market.
