Taste Rwanda on a three-hour Nyamirambo food walk with nine samples, local cafés, painted streets, and practical Kigali tips.
“I've been on about 5 different food tours all over the world and by far this one was the most disappointing, especially for the price. It's better to just go to a couple of restaurants and ask them for their traditional meals order it and enjoy your own company. There was almost no information shared about the dishes, why it was chosen or how its prepared. The guide was sweet but lacked enthusiasm and charisma unfortunately, felt like we were just interviewing her because it was like pulling teeth. I honestly thought the guides would have more indepth knowledge about the country and food (instead we were educating the guide).…”

“I booked this food tour for my son and I on our short stay in Rwanda. Our tour guide, Gloria was very friendly, helpful, engaging, and she has a very kind and attentive spirit. She made sure to contact me the day before as well as the day of the tour. This was one of the best food tours we’ve been on. All 3 spots were fantastic! The food was very good- we were stuffed by the end. Also, Gloria taught us so much information about Rwandan culture, language, and food.
