venue and with no compromise dressed in a white attire carrying food and
drink to the venue. It is a big day in Kigali tonight and travelers on safaris in Rwanda are free to join.
The Diner en Blanc is an event that is internationally celebrated and apparently features in various cities of the world since it was initiated in 1988 in France aiming at enhancing elegance, friendship and a feeling of community hood between the attendees. Kigali is credited to have been the first city in Africa to host the Diner en Blanc event at Gacuriro in the year 2012 where counts of people participated including Rwanda safari undertakers.
