Duration: 1 days
Description
Experience the beauty of Lake Kivu on a day trip from Kigali. Visit a tea plantation, take a boat ride on the lake, and visit a hot spring for a massage.
Depart from Kigali after a briefing from a Silverbird representative at 7:00 AM. Stop by a picturesque waterfall where you’ll stop for photography before driving on to a tea plantation.
Proceed to Lake Kivu where the sun rays emerge from the hills as the birds sing, kingfishers strive to get their first catch, a cool breeze streams over you and a string of green hills engulf the lake.
Get into the boat that will sail from the shore and begin to reconnoiter Lake Kivu. The sight of the native fishing boats will amuse you as their fishing methods are native to the region and appear to be inherent as it’s the economic activity of this region while the residents by the lake shores cheer you on.
Proceed to the Hot spring. Feel free to get a massage with hot spring water. Return to the point of origin. Your last stop will be at the cultural village of the Gorilla guardians, a group of reformed poachers. Return to Kigali after this memorable experience.
