Traditional Rwandan Dance Troupe

Top choice in Rwanda


There is a traditional Rwandan dance troupe based in Huye, and its show is spectacular. The Intore dance originated in Burundi and involves elaborate costumes and superb drumming routines. Performances can be organised through the Ethnographic Museum, and the larger the group size, the cheaper it will be per person. Note that prices substantially increase on weekends and during the evening.
