About the host
Hosted by Greg Bakunzi
Over the past years, I have gained experience working as a Rwandan tour organiser and guide for various international tour operators. My professionalism and reliability, along with my exceptional understanding of the needs and desires of international visitors, have gained me renown among clients and respect among the members of local communities.
Am a co-founder and president of the Ruhengeri Community Eco-Tourism Association, a local association of people collaborating to enhance tourism development in Rwanda.
I rely on a network of contacts in the area, all of whom are happy to take part in my project. With my experience, know-how and contacts, am able to l make your bespoke visitor experience memorable, while also benefiting the locals as much as possible.
I work with an experienced and highly motivated local staff team responsible for client contacts, as well as tour development and facilitation.I achieved a great honor and milestone when it was awarded a certificate for being a TOP 100 mid-sized company for the year 2012/2013. The certificate was presented by Rwanda Development Board (RDB) Business Excellence Awards.
My company Amahoro Tours continued in its winning ways the following year when it received the same award for the second successive year for being among the Top 100 mid-sized companies in Rwanda.
I was again recognized for his participation in the EXPRO 83-Tourism, 2009. The training program was organized by the Centre for Promotion of Imports from developing countries, an agency of the Netherlands Ministry of Foreign Affairs, under the responsibility of the Minister for Development Cooperation.
My philanthropic efforts have also not gone unnoticed. He molded Red Rocks Rwanda to be community-based organizations, where the local community can gain from tourism activities, and in the
process, have sustainable income. In this regard, Red Rocks have come up with different programs and projects to help the vulnerable members of the community.

Why they chose this property
Red Rocks Ecotourism Initiatives is an organisation that is steeped in history. Its name is derived from the red rocks that resulted from historic events that took place in northern Rwanda about 700 years ago.
Back in the 14th Century when the volcanic mountains of Muhabura and Sabyinyo were still active, they used to erupt and send red rocks rolling dow n the southern part of Ruhengeri (now Musanze district), and residues of these rocks can still be found at our headquarters in Nyakinama village, Musanze district.
Passionate about conserving our cultural heritage and protecting our natural environment, we christened our organisation Red Rocks as a way of reminding people about the historical and environmental importance of the volcanoes. Our Mission to support training, capacity building, environmental protection, nature conservation, and promotion of good practice.
