Tripadvisors tilnærming til anmeldelser
Hver Tripadvisor-anmeldelse går gjennom et automatisert sporingssystem før den legges ut. Dette systemet samler inn informasjon som svarer på følgende spørsmål: Hvordan, hva, hvor og når. Hvis systemet oppdager noe som muligens strider imot retningslinjene våre for fellesskapet, blir anmeldelsen ikke publisert.
Når systemet oppdager et problem, kan en anmeldelse automatisk avvises, sendes til anmelderen for bekreftelse eller gjennomgås manuelt av teamet vårt av innholdsspesialister. Disse spesialistene jobber døgnet rundt for å opprettholde kvaliteten av anmeldelsene på nettstedet vårt.
Teamet vårt sjekker hver anmeldelse som er lagt ut på nettstedet og bestrides av fellesskapet vårt for ikke å møte retningslinjene våre for fellesskapet.

Ein Erlebnis, mancher würde sagen Kulturschock. Hier kauft die lokale Bevölkerung ihre Lebensmittel ein. Allerdings darf man hier nicht nach europäischen Hygienestandards suchen, v.a. Bei Fleisch und Fisch. Ohne Guide sollte der Markt nicht besucht werden

Nice place to buy fabrics and there are many sellers with tourist products also. The shopkeepers can be overwhelming and really try to sell to you. You can have something done for you quickly in a moment from the fabrics at market, there are many women with sewing machines waiting for customers.

Kimironko Market is probably the biggest market in Kigali. It's not an attraction per se. You can't visit it as you would visit a zoo, for example. It's a market. If you are a Westerner, would you go to a supermarket to 'visit' it? I don't think so. It's a place to buy food. You will find most of the vegetables and fruits that are available in Rwanda, mushrooms, meat and fish. It's cheaper than elsewhere, but you need to bargain. I advise you to take a guy to hold your bags. In that way, you won't have to ignore 10 or 20 people asking to help you, and you won't have to carry anything! You may be strong, but the aisles are pretty narrow and people don't hesitate to push you to go wherever they want to go. I was pushed twice in a row and almost fell down the first time I went because I had a bag in each hand. If your hands are free, you can hold something or even the person who is pushing you aside to regain your balance. If it was expensive, I understand that you wouldn't want to hire anybody, but it's not the case, it's RWF 500 ($ 0.5) or RWF 1,000 ($ 1).

“Bustling” doesn’t begin to describe this Mecca of commerce. Tools, clothes, housewares, trinkets, an incredible array of things are on sale. The clothes made to order on treadle sewing machines are decent quality and fun.
Now, the experience, because you have to be ready to roll with it. Aisles are narrow, some dimly lit, and packed with people and goods. Young non local women will attract a lot of attention, but mostly from a distance. Overall the market seems pretty safe.
If you’re white or obviously a tourist, you will be approached by people persistently hawking their stuff or offering to “help” you. Politely and confidently telling them you’re not interested helps, ignoring them works too. There are no prices on anything, so everything is a negotiation. But even if you don’t buy anything it’s a great experience.

Nous nous sommes rendus au marché de Kimironko pour acheter des tissus et faire faire des vêtements sur mesure.
C'est là que nous avons eu l'immense chance de rencontrer la très aimable AGNES (Whatsapp: +250 781 792 505), une couturière efficace et professionnelle.
Si vous la contactez à l'avance, AGNES viendra vous chercher à l'entrée du marché (pratique pour échapper aux sollicitations des guides et des porteurs si vous n'êtes pas intéressés par leurs services).
Le marché a plusieurs entrées. Demandez au taxi de vous laisser à l'entrée où se trouvent les vendeurs de tissus et les couturières.
Si vous le souhaitez, AGNES vous accompagnera d'abord acheter les tissus dans l'une des échoppes.
Elle vous conduira ensuite à son poste de travail où elle vous aidera à choisir le modèle de robe, pantalon, veste, etc. que vous souhaitez et prendra vos mesures.
Vous pouvez également choisir les modèles à l'avance, avant votre visite au marché. AGNES peut vous envoyer des photos via Whatsapp qui serviront d'inspiration.
Vous pouvez demander d'adapter les modèles (col rond, col en V, longueur, largeur, avec ou sans ceinture, avec ou sans élastique à la ceinture, vêtement avec ou sans fermeture éclair, avec ou sans bouton, totebag, bandeau, chouchou pour les cheveux assortis, etc.).
AGNES est capable de confectionner les vêtements très rapidement, voire en quelques heures ou dans la journée si vous êtes pressés.
Elle les emmènera par la suite à votre hôtel où vous pourrez les essayer et demander d'éventuelles retouches.
Nous avons tous été ravis de nos commandes. Regardez les photos et voyez par vous même!
Whatsapp d'AGNES: +250 781 792 505 (elle parle anglais et français),
Prix indicatifs
6 yards ou 5,5 mètres de tissu: 10 000-15 000 FRW
Shorts: 15 000 > 20 000 FRW
Robe courte ou pantalon: 15 000 > 25 000 FRW
Kimono long: 35 000 FRW
Si vous êtes satisfaits du résultat, il est d'usage d'ajouter un pourboire. :)

It was an average experience. I had expected to find Rwandese specific items, but found general African goods which I can find in any market accross Africa. I could have been in Lusaka, Accra, Nairobi etc. That authentic Rwanda feel was not there.

Interesting market. I came to observe, not to buy. Other shoppers were hounded by locals offerings their services as a guide. I ignored them and looked around on my own.

Temperature check and hands sanitizer at the entrance after a big struggle to get rid off the guys in yellow offering to carry the stuff that you don't have yet or to have a look at you car. After that, a well organized market with first the food parts then clothes, fabrics and local craft art.

Hey its close to city center and very easy to get there. We had hired a taxi for the full day which took us to all interesting places and turned out very reasonable. There are scooter and cycle taxis too which may perhaps be cheaper if you are travelling alone.
There are no entry fees and no guides.. Its just a market.. You need to bargain a little but the prices are very reasonable for all African arts and crafts and fabric.. Its a market for local people where everything including fruits, vegetables, clothes, shoes... is sold... There are lots of tailors too who stitch a dress or a shirt in 24 hours at a reasonable price.. Vast choice for African fabric..

Hi there, interested to know about your guide. Was it someone you just met on the spot and 'hired', or was it something you arranged in advance? Many thanks!

As a foreigner and specially if you cannot speak local language I would advice that u take someone with you who can manage the crowd of porters who (with good intentions) will surround you, all wants to be hired to carry your stuff. It can be uncomfortable experience for those who experience it for the first time.
You can ask the driver or request the hotel to find you a guide. Normal people are very friendly and willing to help.

Hello! We will have a morning open in Kigali before our flight departs for Qatar, and are thinking of checking out the Marketplace. Will the vendors/sellers accept US Dollars, or should we convert to the Rwandan Franc, or have a combination of both currencies? Thanks in advance for your help.

I have only used RWF and would endorse the earlier comments about not flashing the cash. Keep your money in separate small amounts so you only have to take out some at a time.

Do you haggle at the market or just pay what they ask? Also can you buy using us dollars

Yes to both questions, however you'd get a better price if you pay in the local currency. Have fun!
