Vibrant, colourful and ever-evolving, Kigali is a city with its eyes firmly on the future. Modernity is hard-wired into its DNA thanks to a relatively short history: founded in 1907, it only became the capital post-independence in 1962, mainly because of its location right in the heart of the country. Draped across verdant hills and valleys, its impressively pristine streets and tree-lined boulevards are flanked by the sort of gleaming contemporary architecture that has helped to earn it the label of ‘the Singapore of Africa’. It even has a similar reputation for safety and a growing name for high-tech innovation.

A flavour of Rwanda on a hands-on gourmet adventure
This half-day tour introduces you to Rwandan food, a cultural staple. Your host has run restaurants and has developed relationships with all kinds of nearby farmers: people growing macadamia nuts, chia seeds, cassava and sweet potatoes. The tour starts with a visit to one of Kigali’s colourful farmers markets to shop for some of the ingredients for the cooking class later. The tour is customised to your interests so you may visit a farm outside Kigali or meet the locals with a visit to a milk bar.
You'll take part in a short cooking class that focuses on Rwandan-inspired recipes. You'll pop on an apron and learn how to prepare various local fruits and vegetables, cook a few dishes and have a tasting, followed by a nice lunch. You can also incorporate cocktail making using lemongrass, passionfruit and tropical fruits to create innovative non-alcoholic and alcoholic beverages.
Food is a big part of the overall experience and this tour allows you to interact with farmers, explore community markets and discover new recipes that they can take home with them afterwards.
