Hey there, welcome to my Guruwalk profile! I'm M Alqersh, but my friends call me SHARK! 🦈 As a Traveller, humanitarian, and media producer, I'm on a mission to live life to the fullest! I'm a big dreamer and believe that anything is possible if you work hard enough. Life is too short to waste even a single moment, so let's make the most of it!

Tour description

Welcome to Kigali!  I'm your local guide on GuruWalk. Over the past 5 years, I've explored every nook and cranny of this vibrant city, discovering its historical landmarks, markets, museums, cafes, and more. 

Free tours do not have a set price, instead, each person gives at the end of the tour the amount that he or she considers appropriate (these usually range from €15 to $50 per person depending on satisfaction with the tour).


Keep in mind we use a motorbike or taxi to move from the art centre to Belgium memorial

I was so disappointed. The first time I booked the guru canceled because of the weather. The second time i booked the guru didn’t show up. I made an unnecessary journey to get to the meeting place. I had little time in Kigali, so it really ruined my schedule.

A good tour! Shark was friendly and enthusiastic. We saw the art center, the Belgium Peacekeeper’s memorial, a nice car-free walking street, and another main shopping area (and I might be forgetting something, ha). We rode motorcycles as a group, twice. Was a fun and diverse group of people, and Shark nicely facilitated conversation and shared a bit about his background and time in Kigali. He also gave us a nice useful card with Rwandan-language phrases. To be even better, I think he can explain a bit more about the history and development of Kigali—ex: how and when did it become the cleanest and safest African city? And perhaps some more information about the different neighborhoods and their special characters. But overall it was very good! Would def recommend! 😊
