CRUISES ON LAKE KIVU
Go there and contact
Lake Kivu can be discovered in different ways:
The easiest : board a small motorboat and go to Nyamunini Island, to admire the myriads of bats while tasting guavas. This small island is also nicknamed "Napoleon Island" because it is shaped like his hat. The ascent takes only 30 minutes. The view from the top is sublime. You can also stop on Amahoro Island, where it is unfortunately no longer possible to camp. It is necessary to count approximately 35 000 Frw per hour for a simple motorboat between 8 and 12 places. The price depends on the distance traveled (price of oil). Departures are usually on the small bay in front of the Environment Museum. The Ames Boat & Tours agency can also organize excursions at low prices.
The most enchanting: Iliza Houseboat. You stay on the boat and wake up between Rwanda and Congo, between water and sky, surrounded by the sweet melody of the fishermen. It is also possible to reserve the Iliza boat for a few hours, half a day or a day (+250 788 300 630).
The most sporty: rent a kayak to meet the fishermen or the rural communities living on the lake's shores, or to get excited about the magnificent birds nesting on the islets (www.kingfisherjourneys.com). Also in Gisenyi.
