This was truly a trip of a lifetime to Rwanda, shared with family and friends while celebrating a milestone birthday, and the Lake Kivu boat tour was without a doubt the highlight for our entire group. I would highly recommend this experience. Our package included a hike up Napoleon’s Hat Island, which was absolutely worth it — the views from the summit were breathtaking, and the sound of the millions of birds that call the island home made it even more special. The guides were fantastic: very knowledgeable, calmly talking us through the landscape as we cruised across the lake, and incredibly supportive during the hike. They encouraged us every step of the way, making the climb enjoyable and manageable for everyone. It was a real adventure, and we learnt so much about this beautiful lake. I wouldn’t hesitate to do it all over again given half the chance. If you’re visiting Rwanda, this is an unforgettable experience and an absolute must-do on Lake Kivu.Posted on Olan OshTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

Nous voulions voir des animaux, le guide a pris le temps pour nous repérer tous les oiseaux des îles. Nous avons même vu un cobra. A répondu a nos messages whatsapp rapidement. A recommander.Posted on Nathalie VanvelthovenTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We managed to arrange a last minute boat tour thanks to the quick communication of our guide. We took the boat to Napoleon’s Hat Island where we hiked to the top and past the bats. We were able to take a quick swim in Lake Kivu and then watched the monkeys and wild life on the other islands nearby. Our guide Aimable was very friendly and extremely knowledgeable. Thank you!Posted on Patricia KuriaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I really enjoyed the Kivu experience.
