A milestone in Kigali

Official Travel Partner for AAMEA26.

In August 2026, Duiker & Dune supported the AIESEC Alumni Middle East and Africa Regional Alumni Conference in Kigali as its Official Travel Partner.

We brought our travel desk to the conference, connected with delegates from across the region and designed optional journeys that helped travellers experience Rwanda beyond the official programme.
