It wasn’t poor performance, so much as a really miserable waiter at the end, which made me very unhappy, as we had got on well. Tipping is endemic in Africa - I generally budget for $100+ per day.Re tipping. I understand these are world class facilities that take money to create and upkeep but in the same breath, these aren't Contiki Bali prices either, people are paying $$$+ for the privilege so the expectation of tipping and poor performance is very disappointing.

According to Alex the whole country had a cleanup day once a month and even the President and his family take part!Aaaahhh! - Rwanda does Eucalypts so well - like Ethiopia, Madagascar... - and the list goes on .
And you would have noticed that it is not just Kigali that is ultra-clean and tidy...
Bisate explained to us that they are using Eucalypts to stabilise the soil, but once the native trees grow they will slowly eradicate them.
