Obed Tuyumvire also known as Temba walked out from the refugee camp for the last time in 2008 as an adopted by Rwanda teenager, and stepped out into the street as a volunteer tourism guide. Since then, working alongside travelers, he managed to dream and finished to implement a tour company which ha to be a souvenir of his childhood experience, the “KUMBUKUMBU TOURS” literally from “KUMBUKUMBU” A Swahili word which means: SOUVENIR. Kumbukumbu Tours’s Teamwork has been and will continue to be guided by its input, skills and values, the pillars that hold the company up. Humanism and integrity is what the we stands for, what all of team members have in common. From me to my colleagues.
