The Kinigi Village Walk

Kinigi village walk is a walk through the heart of Kinigi where tourists experience the Rwandan cultural ways of living, the beautiful landscape and geological components underlying the formation of Kinigi’s landscape, what lies underneath, and the difference with what the surface holds. The walk takes 2-3 hours through the beautiful landscape of Kinigi.

Local market and vending

This twice-a-week market in Kinigi’s center is full of color, and excitement, and bustling with local and wonderful activities in an open-air market, allowing visitors to experience what the daily life of a local vendor is all about. This local market sells everything you need but it is always foodstuffs that stand out. The local farmers bring their produce for sale and others come in to buy what they need after selling much of what they produce.

There is a lot of haggling taking place and the sellers want to sell at a higher price and the buyer wants to buy at a low price, both need a strong communicator/negotiator to get what they want and convince others to accept your offer. After the buying and selling, local people get time to share a local beer with friends before they go back and sometimes they don’t take back a coin of what they had come for in the market.

History of the people

During the walk, you will have direct talks with the local people and get to know what life is like during the genocide and after the genocide which is one of the best ways to experience the ethnic history of Rwanda.
