Rwanda, today, is considered one of the cleanest, safest and most well-run countries in Africa. World-famous for mountain gorilla trekking in Volcanoes National Park, Rwanda also offers safari experiences in Akagera National Park and chimpanzee trekking in Nyungwe Forest.
The capital, Kigali, is a modern city, home to hotels of all categories, with new shopping malls, office buildings, restaurants, a vibrant arts scene and the Genocide Memorial museum.
