2022 In Review
A Time to Reflect and Plan for the Year Ahead
Greetings from Kigali!

As 2022 draws to a close, we would like to take this opportunity to reflect on what has been a very successful year for our company. Not only have we launched our innovative in-house videos showcasing some of the leading properties in East Africa, but we have also moved into a new office located near Kigali International Airport and hired several new staff members to join our growing team.

In celebration of these company milestones, we are showcasing some of our proudest highlights from this year, as outlined below. We feature interesting travel content ranging from Travulous' Small Group Tours, national park and city reviews, to conservation updates, Tour Leader & Driver Guide biographies, and a selection of inspirational accommodation videos. The purpose of Travulous is quite straight forward; to serve our customers as best as we can.

We are very excited about 2023 and look forward to continuing to design inspirational travel itineraries. For us, there is nothing more rewarding than being able to share with you our unquenchable passion for East Africa, its wildlife, lands, and people.
