Our expertise in tourism diversification is rooted in Rwanda’s rich cultural heritage, drawing inspiration from its intangible traditions, legends, and values—each filled with history, wisdom, and the spirit of Ubuntu, or Ubumuntu in Kinyarwandan, which means “to be human”.
As part of the Tourism Infrastructure Strategy for Rwanda we developed a theme park in Kigali in which we transform these authentic narratives into hi-tech tourism attractions, seamlessly blending immersive storytelling, theming, and interactive experiences. Visitors will step into the world of Rwandan folklore, engaging with iconic stories of courage, community, and resilience that have been passed down through generations.
What sets our approach apart is the integration of these experiences through local storytelling, transformed in physical experiences. This unique perspective fosters a deep emotional connection, allowing visitors—both local and international—to experience Rwanda’s heritage in a vibrant, personal, and unforgettable way.
By preserving and celebrating these cultural treasures in a future-proof, innovative manner, we ensure that the essence of Rwandan identity continues to inspire and educate both current and future generations.
