This day trip focuses on birding in the Nyabarongo Wetland, a key birding site just outside Kigali that is part of Rwanda’s largest river system. Nyabarongo is a rich mosaic of swamp, papyrus, and open wetland habitats—home to numerous water-associated species, including several regional specialties. It’s a prime location for spotting wetland and grassland birds within easy reach of the capital, making it ideal for birders with limited time.

It is a great place to shop not too far from New York. We took the bus from Port Authority and traveled through the countryside to get there.
