★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 11 reviews · 1 day · from $260

Review of a Lake Kivu day trip from Kigali with coffee tasting, Napoleon Island hiking, boat rides, swimming, lunch, and scenic views.

“Had a fantastic time on this tour, we got to visit a coffee plantation and Lake Kivu, participate in the coffee making experience and hike up Napoleon island. Bernard and Anoh were the best guides, the team were very flexible and tailored the tour to our preferences. As a fellow music lover, they gave us a taste of the top Rwandan music and pointed out nice photo spots on our drive to Lake Kivu. They also went the extra mile to double as our photographers 😄😄. I would highly recommend a tour with this team, good vibes and a good experiences all through.”
