Read | My Trip Rwanda

Vibrant and thriving. In the heart of Africa, Rwanda is one of Africa’s most biodiverse regions. Its bustling capital, Kigali, exemplifies cleanliness and order; plastic bags are banned and car-less Mondays are encouraged. Fiercely protective over its wilderness and land, we are proud to be involved in reforestation programmes and the protection of endangered wildlife.

Rwanda enjoys a delightful temperate tropical highland climate due to its elevated terrain. Despite being located near the equator, it experiences lower temperatures than expected. In Kigali, daily temperatures typically range from 12°C to 27°C, with minimal variation year-round. The mountainous northwest, home to places like Bisate, tends to be cooler compared to the warmer, lower-lying east.
