Amahoro Tours

Musanze, Ruhengeri - Rwanda

Literally translated from Kinyarwanda, "amahoro" means peace. It is not only the name of our tour company, but our motto. Our fundamental aim at Amahoro Tours is to promote local tourism. We do it with a view to not only contribute to the economic development of the region and the prosperity of all those involved, but also to raise awareness and help visitors understand our way of life. Come join us and enrich your ultimate Rwanda travel experience with exciting cultural activities in the lush and unspoiled scenic heart of the African continent. Through the years, we have established ourselves as leaders in eco-tourism and community based tourism in Rwanda. Our tailor-made tours are designed to provide you with as much interaction with the locals and like-minded visitors as possible, while also enabling you to enjoy nature at its finest. We cooperate with an extensive network of community organisations, international NGOs and volunteers from the four corners of the world. Prompt, efficient, engaging and safe – these are the qualities that set us apart from other tour operators. Rely on us to turn your journey into a journey of exploration.

How does Amahoro Tours work to benefit the community?

The company has been in operation for nineteen years, serving Volcanoes National Park in Rwanda, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, and Uganda. Amahoro Tours complements the work of two other organizations.

In 2011, Greg Bakunzi, the owner of Amahoro Tours, set up Red Rocks Rwanda is a social enterprise for the residents of the Musanze area (adjacent to the gorillas) to benefit from tourism. Here visitors can learn about bee-keeping, basket-weaving or banana beer production and brewing. Go hiking in Rwanda and mountain biking. We offer backpacking services as well as provide tour guides to make your visit easy, fun and enjoyable.  Visit the Art Centre and the Dian Fossey Museum. Stay in a homestay. Plant trees. Become a conservation volunteer.

The community and the environment are at the very heart of everything Red Rocks do. You can read more about the popular Red Rocks Rwanda campsite, accommodation, restaurant, bar and activities on the Red Rocks Rwanda page.

As ideas developed and people started getting excited about Red Rocks, Greg Bakunzi says “I decided it would be better to have one big box which enables everyone that was interested to try and develop his/her initiatives altogether. This is when I came up with the idea of registering a non-profit, by the name of Red Rocks Initiatives for Sustainable Development.
