CULTURAL EXCHANGE PROGRAMS TO RWANDA

Rwanda has numerous cultural features, and our cultural exchange programs are highly enriching for groups and organisations that are interested in learning and immersing themselves in the day-to-day life of the locals. Visitors explore local Rwandan culture through the local community’s activities, while also sharing their own culture with the host community.

Ikaze Rwanda Tours & Travel helps participants create new networks and learn how to relate and interact with people from Rwanda. This promotes respect and understanding for other cultures, and ultimately helps cultures flourish in their diversity.

RWANDA EDUCATIONAL EXPERIENCES

Ikaze Rwanda Tours & Travel’s educational experiences revolve around Rwanda’s transformational journey from the post-Genocide against the Tutsi period to date. Participants learn how a country can rise from the ashes of the genocide to become a model of socio-economic development globally.

Our all-inclusive, meaningful, experiential, and learning tours focus mainly on the history of the 1994 Genocide against Tutsi in Rwanda and its effects, unity and reconciliation, conflict resolution and sustainable peacebuilding, and homegrown solutions.

SCHOOL EXCHANGE PROGRAMS TO RWANDA

Ikaze Rwanda Tours & Travel’s school exchange program is a great fit for people who plan to have school trips to Rwanda.

WILDLIFE AND ENVIRONMENTAL CONSERVATION INITIATIVES

Rwanda is at the forefront of environmental conservation, ensuring a clean and healthy environment. This is thanks to the ban on non-biodegradable plastic bags and packing materials, which has earned Rwanda a great reputation as one of the greenest and cleanest countries in Africa. Ikaze Rwanda Tours & Travel helps visitors understand and observe the country’s approach to protecting and restoring degraded ecosystems such as wetlands, lakes, and natural forests, as well as reintroducing iconic wildlife species such as lions and rhinos to national parks.

COMMUNITY-BASED TOURISM 

Community-based tourism is a type of tourism that puts the local community first. It is about giving back to the community, preserving the environment, and providing authentic experiences for tourists.

There are many different ways to implement community-based tourism. Some popular examples include voluntourism, homestays, and ecotourism.

  1. Voluntourism is a great way to give back to a community while also getting to experience a new culture.
  2. Homestays allow tourists to stay with a local family and learn about their culture firsthand.
  3. Ecotourism involves traveling to natural areas and learning about the environment.

No matter what type of community-based tourism you choose, you can be sure that you are making a difference. You are supporting a local community, preserving the environment, and having an authentic travel experience.

HALAL TOURS

Given the peculiarity of some of our clients’ needs, Ikaze Rwanda Tours & Travel has come up with a solution for our Muslim community tourists. Groups can stay in hotels with Muslim paraphernalia, visit mosques in the country and around the region, and enjoy halal menus for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Our professional guides can speak multiple languages.

We offer a regional and country-wide product that connects people with the same religious beliefs and interests to perform group activities, travel, have adventures, and have fun together through halal tourism. At Ikaze Rwanda Tours & Travel, we believe that the term “halal tours” can be off-putting to some hoteliers. Instead, we prefer to use the term “halal-friendly,” which means that we are welcoming to Muslim travelers. This could also extend to include Jewish travelers or travelers on a budget.

Photoventures is based in Rwanda and takes small groups to varied locations around the countryside, and other destinations in the region. All of the tours are aimed at keen photographers. We cater for all levels of experience, from beginner to expert, whether you use mirrorless digital or large format film cameras. If you want to share a tour with a small and lively group of like-minded people, and have the opportunity to enjoy the art of photography in some of the most exciting places on Earth, then Photoventures is a tour for you.
