Introduction
One of the great advantages of staying at Hemingways Retreat Kigali is its seamless connection to Kenya’s safari landscapes. For travellers looking to combine urban sophistication with wilderness adventure, Kigali and the Maasai Mara make the perfect pairing.

Kigali’s Urban Experience
Begin in Kigali, where guests can enjoy Rwanda’s rich history, creative culture, and thriving dining scene. From exploring art galleries to dining at restaurants such as Heaven, Fusion, or Pili Pili, the city offers a refreshing start to an African journey.

Onwards to Safari

Seamless Travel with Hemingways
With Hemingways’ portfolio spanning both Rwanda and Kenya, guests can enjoy the ease of coordinated itineraries, ensuring their transition from city to safari is effortless.

Conclusion
