Tourist Attractions to Add To Your Rwanda Tour From Shanghai

Boat cruise in Twin lakes and Lake Kivu

Discover the enchanting beauty of the twin lakes, Lake Burera and Lake Ruhondo, where nature's marvels abound. The enigma of these lakes lies in their connection, with Lake Burera majestically perched around 150 meters above its sibling, Lake Ruhondo. The best way to fully grasp the spectacle of one lake feeding into the other is from a bird's eye view, which unfurls the full expanse of this natural phenomenon. The entwined lakes of Burera and Ruhondo, along with the lush Rugezi Swamp, create an idyllic setting for peaceful bird-watching ventures. Recognized as one of Rwanda's top seven Important Bird Areas (IBAs), Rugezi Swamp hosts a wealth of avian diversity. Encircled by dramatic hills and cascading waterfalls, with the imposing Virunga volcanoes sketched on the horizon, the lakes boast rich, azure waters that offer more than just a visual feast. Embarking on a tranquil canoe or boat excursion will take you across the mirror-like surfaces of Burera and Ruhondo, offering a serene adventure and unparalleled opportunities to witness the stunning surroundings from the unique perspective of the water.

My excursion to the Kinunu Coffee Washing Station was meticulously organized by Tratoli, providing an electrifying adventure into the world of coffee. The journey commenced with a timely pickup by boat from our Kigufi/Gisenyi lodge, leading to a serene trip to Kinunu. The guided tour there was nothing short of fascinating; it was educational and immersive as we delved into the entire coffee production process, examining each step from the initial berry harvesting to the final coffee cup preparation. The hands-on experience allowed us to pick coffee cherries, dry the beans, and even roast and grind our 'own' coffee, which was an enlightening journey through coffee-making. Following the insightful tour, we enjoyed a delectable lunch at the nearby Rushel Lodge, adding to the overall delightful experience. This wasn't my first adventure with Beyond the Gorillas Experience, and based on the exceptional service and genuine understanding of our preferences provided by founder & MD Theodore, it most definitely won't be my last.

I recently embarked on a remarkable journey, ascending the scenic slopes of Mt Kabuye once more to share its splendor with a visiting friend in Rwanda. For this adventure, I trusted in the reliable and cost-effective services of Beyond Gorillas Experience, an excellent choice known not only for their organizational prowess but also for their support of local communities. As you trek, you're given the unique opportunity to experience authentic rural life up close—wandering past quaint villages, a local school, and witnessing daily life far removed from the tourist trails of national parks. This moderately challenging hike takes roughly 3 hours to ascend and 2 hours to descend, navigating slippery paths that demand respect and caution. Yet, the effort is supremely rewarded when you achieve the summit; a sumptuous warm 3-course lunch, crafted with care by a dedicated cook, awaits to satiate your hunger. For those seeking an extended experience, overnight camping on the peak is available, and a two-day itinerary allows for a descent to the picturesque Lake Ruhondo. Mt Kabuye's prominence is noteworthy, standing as the third highest non-volcanic peak in the 'land of the thousand hills', with an altitude gain of approximately 1100 meters. The highlight of my trek was the delightful company of Esther, my guide, firmly established as one of my favorite nature guides across Africa. Her extensive knowledge of the region's nature and culture, combined with her helpful, friendly demeanor, ensures an enriching journey. Her infectious smile alone seems to power your climb to the summit. Booking this experience through Tratoli offered a seamless and memorable adventure, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking to uncover the natural beauty and cultural richness of Rwanda. Enjoy this extraordinary encounter with nature's majesty atop Mt Kabuye.
