Rwanda comes up with New Tourism Products to Boost Economy

The move by Rwanda Development Board (RDB) to promote domestic tourism is bearing fruits. For instance, many people I have met from Europe say they have not seen something like "Canopy Walk" which, according to RDB's records, has attracted investors.

I wish to encourage the tourism department at RDB to put in more efforts and carry out more research in new and interesting tourism products and services, which would help further diversify this critical sector. It also my hope that key stakeholders in the tourism sector, especially hotel owners, will proactively market their facilities to the local community with special and attractive offers.
