Since last July, Rwanda has opened its door to Chinese visitor groups. Cooperating with Kenya and Uganda, Rwanda began to issue single tourist visa to foreign visitors from January 1st this year, which with no doubt will further promote the development of tourism in Rwanda.

 

In order to make Chinese visitors to know more about the tourist resources in Rwanda, the Rwanda Tourism Board with the support of World Travel Online specifically launched "Rwanda Tourism Webinar” targeting at China market which was presented successfully on April 25th.

 

The webinar brought the introduction of Rwanda tourism resources, such as visa, how to arrive in Rwanda, national parks, the flora and fauna with the most famous mountain gorillas and the popular tourist activities. This education program attracted more than 360 interested Chinese Tour Operators joining and participating actively in the interactive questions about Rwanda section.

 

Following the webinar, some of Chinese Tour Operators will be the lucky dogs for Rwanda Fam Trip organized by Rwanda Development Board in June. The group members will have a chance to enjoy the various tourism products in Rwanda. June is coincided with the 10th anniversary of an old tradition, the Gorilla Naming Ceremony.
