Visitor Information

Rwanda's Tourism and Conservation Department has a decent website (www.rwandatourism.com) that will give you a helpful overview of possible destinations and activities, but don't expect a timely response to personal inquiries. For more candid and thorough reviews, your best bet is Living in Kigali (www.livinginkigali.com), which has restaurant and site suggestions and tips for traveling outside the city.

The Uganda Tourism Board runs its own site (www.visituganda.com) with a helpful FAQ, directories, and site suggestions. Many safari operators and high-end lodges provide comprehensive information for guests on their websites and will answer individual concerns.
