Rwanda covers about 26,338 square kilometers, making it one of the smallest countries on the African continent, located in the Eastern region. Rwanda is a landlocked country surrounded by Burundi, Uganda, the Democratic Republic of Congo, and Tanzania. Due to its beautiful hills and mountains, it is also known as "the land of a thousand hills."
Kigali, the capital city, has been voted Africa’s cleanest and most organized city. Therefore, Rwanda is a benchmark for other African countries looking to organize their countries and people.
Rwanda is also known for its famous mountain gorillas, rich cultural heritage, diverse wildlife, lakes, rivers, and beautiful vegetation cover, which contribute to the country’s excellent weather. The tourism industry in Rwanda has grown quickly, and all credit has been attributed to the beautiful natural resources, good infrastructure like roads, and hotels that offer 5-star experiences. English was also added to its official languages to make communication easier for tourists visiting the country.
Despite the tragic events of the 1994 Genocide, Rwanda has emerged as a beacon of hope under the leadership of President Paul Kagame. Today, it is one of the safest and most peaceful places to visit in the world. Whether you dream of a group tour or a luxury solo gorilla trekking trip, Rwanda should be at the top of your travel list. The safety and security of tourists in Rwanda are not just promised, they are guaranteed, allowing you to explore this beautiful country with confidence.
