The driver and the Guide picked me up on time and they were super friendly. I had prepared myself for a full day of Kigali (history and life). The first stop was the Memorial, the second the Kant House, and then to the Kamp Memorial Museum. After that, we had a lunch break. And that was it. After that, we drove around the town for about 1 hour. Kigali is a nice city, but there is not too much to see. Sometime around 2 pm, I asked if we had another stop, they answered 'no' and said the tour was over. I had a faint memory that there was more on the list, but I couldn't check. Why we didn't go to the market, I don't know (especially since I had said several times that I would like to experience the life of the people in the city!!). Also on the list is Caplaki Craft Village: it must be said about this, the Guide had asked me if I liked art. My answer was, 'it depends, I don't like museums that much'. Maybe that's why it was removed from the program. But even if this had been the case, why wasn't I offered an alternative? In conclusion, I must say that I could have easily visited the three places I mentioned in advance by motorbike taxi and saved a lot of money. Conclusion: for me, not good value for money.

This was a fantastic tour, a real highlight of my trip to Rwanda. It’s an action-packed day with stunning views of the north-western part of the country. Lake Kivu is a real sight to witness, especially with the DRC so close. Peter is a great tour guide and I had a really enjoyable discussion with him throughout the day. Highly recommended!

A group of friends and I visit an African country each year. Kigali was our pit stop for October 2019 and we needed a tour company to provide us with a tailored package that included navigating the popular tourist sites and getting to see the real Kigali! Liz and her business partner Claudine did not disappoint; their professional approach was second to none and we received great recommendations re tourist sites to visit, restaurants to eat and coffee shops/ bars to chill. Our own dedicated tour guides and coach service made getting around easy. Our first stop was the Akagera National Park followed by visits to the Genocide Memorial and Parliament Museums. A sumptuous lunch at the Hotel des Mille Collines aka "Hotel Rwanda" followed by individual visits to local markets and galleries followed. Our evening ended with a Kigali bar-crawl! An amazing road trip at the crack of dawn to Rwesero to enjoy the lake Muhazi and King Fish Beach Resort kicked off our 2nd day! The scenery was as good as the food! To top it off a bonfire was organised where we chilled appreciated the nature! The night ended with an amazing rooftop reception in Kigali while we rounded up our city tour on the last day and spent the final evening at the renown Piri-Piri spot. I would highly recommend Phonenix Travel & Tours as they showed a deep knowledge of the entire landscape and definitely provided a rounded experience for us. One thing the group unanimously agreed on was that a second visit was necessary!

My partner and I decided to take the tour on our last day in Rwanda. We've been living in Rwanda for 3 weeks already but we never had to opportunity to explore. My partner and i were picked up at our apartment which was a plus! ( a little late but they manage to call to inform us that they were on their way).It was only me and my partner on the tour and must i say, it was lovely. We did inform that we had to be back to our apartment at 5pm and they noted that very well. Our tour was custom to our preference which was a plus. (Keep in mind, that Kigali has a curfew.) Patrick was very well educated on the history of Rwanda! We had a delicious lunch and had a great conversation with Patrick during our lunch which was great! It was not an awkward lunch. It is a very lovely tour. I recommend if want to see the major "must see" of Kigali. It was very lovely to have Patrick around as our tour guide. Patrick spoke very good english and ensure we had a great experience to take back home.
