4. Gisenyi - Gisenyi is about a three hours drive, and is perfect for a weekend get-away. The city features a resort on the shores of Lake Kivu, with several hotels and three sandy beaches. The area is also known for water sports.

5. Kigali Convention Centre - It is just 5 kilometers from the bustling city center and Kigali International Airport.The complex’s egg-shaped dome and ribbon-striped hotel are a familiar sight to Kigali residents and a point of pride for the city.

6. Kigali Heights Shopping Mall - Kigali's premier mixed-use development offering the country's first Grade A offices and world-class retail experience.

7. Genocide Memorial Museum - Giant wall displays, archival documents, photos, video footage and weapons encased in glass, the indoor exhibit sheds light on the Rwandan genocide, as well its pre-colonial, colonial and post-colonial roots.

8. Casino Kigali - It’s relaxed, the staff are nice and it’s just something different to do on a night out with a group of friends.

Restaurants & Nightlife:

1. Pili Pili Bar & Restaurant - Even though the food and service are both really good, the best thing about Pili Pili is the view and the general atmosphere of the place taking in what seems like a panoramic view of the entire city. It’s probably the best place in Kigali for a full view of the sunset in the giant sky. It’s reasonably priced, they have a big screen for sports, and it’s all wrapped up into the package of an interesting building with nice service.

2. Zaaffran - There are a few excellent Indian restaurants in Kigali and Zaaffran, is the pick of the lot. It specializes in Authentic Indian food.

3. Piazza Bar - The Piazza Bar on the roof of the Convention Centre was actually a nice surprise! It is right underneath the brightly lit dome. There’s also an absolutely huge big screen TV (probably the largest in the city) that was playing football at first and then moved on to music videos.

4. Peoples Bar - This is a premier night spot in Kigali and much of its reputation derives from the fact that it’s the only bar that operates seven days a week.
