The day starts with a briefing at the office before heading to the village be welcome by the artisans and go to the family home of the artisan who is your host for the day. In the morning you will fetch water or help with food preparation. Then it is into learning rural construction techniques including making rope from banana tree and bricks from mud. The artisans will show you how to do the activity and will work alongside you. Then you have Lunch (typical Rwandan dishes e.g. cassava and beans). This is a good time to ask your hosts about life in their community. They may have questions for you too about life in your home country. In the afternoon you can will use the traditional techniques learnt in the morning to build domestic animal’s shade, a fence or a house.

I took my boys (6 and 8) on the traditional construction experience day. Making bricks and laying some, which had been prepared earlier, was the highlight of their introductory trip to Africa. One of my boys slipped and scraped his knee playing football with the local kids, and the Azizi representatives quickly pulled out a full first aid kit and were clearly well trained in using it. Very impressive. Lunch was very tasty too! This is not just a kids activity, though. The adults in our group all benefited and greatly enjoyed; it is very much an activity for adults without children too!
Do it!

Overall wonderful experience. Super responsive and willing to tailor the content since we were the only two on the tour. Thoughtful answers to all our many questions. Our guide was wonderful about taking pictures for use. The cost does not include transport but Azizi was able to arrange that as well .
Awesome experience, you should really do it!

We had a really great experience with the "host family". We got there early in the morning, started preparing lunch together, went to fetch water, played with the children, made mud bricks, built the start of a rabbit house, had lunch, danced and had a really good time. The women in the cooperative were so welcoming and open and very curious about our life back home. The translator was really helpful and we were so grateful that he just translated what was said and not interpreting or giving us direct answer. It all felt very authentic and fun! Would recommend it to all my friends!
