Top Kibuye Full-day Tours

Journey from Kigali into Rwanda's dramatic Western Province on this private, full-day guided tour to Lake Kivu. Drive through a landscape of terraced hillsides and traditional rural villages, stopping to photograph the thundering Ndaba Rock & Waterfalls and the castle-like Château Le Marara estate. The centerpiece of the day is a private cruise across Lake Kivu, one of Africa's Great Rift Valley lakes, gliding past Peace Island and Monkey Island, where free-roaming primates inhabit the forested shores. Depending on season and conditions, you may also spot a phenomenon found almost nowhere else on Earth: local cows swimming across the open lake. Your professional, multilingual driver-guide handles all logistics, keeping the day flexible and personalized to your group. With round-trip private transport, a boat cruise, and expert guiding all included, this is one of the most rewarding day trips available from Kigali.
