My husband and I had a great time! Our 1 day Curtual Adventure Tour in Lake Kivu began with a drive to Lake Kivu where we experienced wonderful scenery of Rwanda. Aves, our guide was friendly and he were very knowledgeable which he shared educational information about Rwanda culture, the one thousand mountains and volcanic perspectives. Boating around Lake Kivu was beautiful. The food was delicious. We ended our day visiting the ibyiwacu Curtual Village. This was absolute a very special occasion. It was awesome learning about the culture and participating in the activities. A great experience!!
A wonderful and enjoyable experience!

Wawoo this a good way to relax within 1 day from Kigali to lake kivu, my boy friend and I enjoyed the full day with universal, it was 2 experiences combined: the culture tour around volcanoes and boat ride in lake kivu of two hours and half. those Place were really amazing with beautiful views , surrounded by mountains, the traditional dance from culture tour was lovely and they showed us different work the pupils used to do to survive like poachers, make banana beer, .... the natural water spring was good too a bit hot, my husband liked the traditional massages from there, we sow Congo not far from us, and our guide took us to the border, we took a fresh fish for our lunch very delicious, we really like this experience. thank you we will travel with you again in future.
100% service well provided.
