Have a trip in early 09 to HRYR, Kigali Rwanda with a GV.

Any tips? Hotels? Security? Places to avoid?:eek::eek:

Only overflown.
Places to avoid? - Karisimbi Volcano 60 miles NW - very spectacular at night when it gets going.
Bon chance!

I've been there just one night 6 month ago for a hospital flight !! we haven't any problems (exept for the catering) it seems to be safe country (for africa), the hotel des milles collines wasn't very luxurious but clean and quiet.

If you would like an official security brief, PM me your contact details.
