Safety

  • The security situation near Rwanda’s borders with Burundi and the Democratic Republic of the Congo is volatile, especially within 10km of these borders. Don’t cross the borders.
  • There’s a risk of rebel attack in the Volcanoes National Park (Parc National des Volcans). Only visit the park as part of an organised tour group.
  • Grenade attacks and other violent incidents have occurred in the past, including in Kigali. Targets may include genocide memorials, markets and transport hubs. Be alert to possible threats.
  • Petty crime is quite rare, but theft from hotel rooms, homes and vehicles can occur. Keep valuables out of sight. When driving, lock your windows and doors.
  • The rainy seasons are from February to May and September to December. Flooding and mudslides can make roads unusable. Be prepared to alter your travel plans.
