Recorrido gastronómico a pie de medio día por Ruanda

My wife and I have traveled to more than 30 countries together and, during our travels, we have done more than 5 street food tours. In all these years of travelling, this is the only food tour that we regret doing. Here is the reason why: this experience in Kigali was by far the most expensive, especially concerning what you get to eat. Basically, we paid USD 75 per person (USD 150 for two people) to eat rice and beans, meat swekers and fruits. To put it bluntly: the price is extorsive if you take into account the food that was served to us (basic, simple and cheap). It was frustrating and disappointing. The chat with our guide was nice, but, still, for this price range, it is not worth it. Avoid this tour.

This trip is recommended. We went as a group. Our host Joselito and Chris were amazing. Very informative and hospitable too. it was good to see other parts of Rwanda. I love the culture, the people, the food. I love everything about Rwanda. Will visit again.

We had an outstanding food tour with Joselyto! We visited 5 different locations for a variety of food and drinks and got to learn a lot about the neighborhood and food in Rwanda as the day went on. This is not fine dining, it's local food with history, culture and a guide taking you to small shops that tourists would not find on their own. You will definitely end up full. Absolutely worth it in our opinion and Joselyto was a fantastic guide!

Our guide, Yves, was a fantastic guide and we enjoyed sharing stories, asking lots of questions and feasting our way through Nyamirambo. The visits are well paced and Yves has a high standard when selecting the local eateries and dishes. We got to sample different rice dishes, local lake Kivu sardines, fresh sugar cane juice, African tea and fresh fruit. I recommend this tour when visiting Kigali, I actually think it would have fun better on the earlier end of our time in the city, but due to schedules we did this on our last day. Either way it's a great afternoon spent!

At pickup time the guide does not shown, she didn’t notify of the booking. And we wait 45 minutes until the guide coming. The guide take us to 5 restaurants in 3 hours to try different food, the foods are normal street foods, and has nothing special, the food itself is 10-20$ together with a 3 hours guide worth maximum 40$, but the tour sold 89$ per person. I rate the value for this tour to 40$

I have taken about seven food tours and major cities around the world, and they have been wonderful. This leaves a little to be desired as we both really didn’t care for the food. I guess Rwandan cuisine really did nothing for us on the bright side, the guide, Gaella, was very personable and made everyone feel welcome. She was the bright shining star of the evening for what I paid. I would’ve rather have gone to an upscale hotel somewhere in a hotel.

Our host Gaella Irakoze made us feel as part of the city scene by taking us to 5 delicious spots to eat local food! It was great to walk to the different venues and see and taste Kigali.

Myriam was great and excellent at explaining all the dishes! You will be nice and full by the end of your time. Very interesting neighborhood to walk through going from place to place as well!

We really enjoyed our time with Yves exploring the area around Nyamirambo and sampling the local foods. It was a privilege to meet him and hear his stories. It was a bit pricey tho’ for the amount and type of food we sampled.

Walking thru the heart of Kigali- we are so many different foods and tastes local beverages. All is safe. No concern for water or anything that could get you sick. Authentic Rwandan at its best!
