After months of searching for an off-the-beaten-track trip, I discovered Lake Kivu through breathtaking photos and stories of amazed travelers. this lake promises breathtaking scenery, rich culture and rare tranquility. Spoiler: he exceeded all my expectations!

The Gorilla Guardians Village was an amazing experience. Jonathan was an excellent host, thoroughly guiding us, so at the end of the day we got a glimpse of this fantastic country with welcoming people and such a clean environment. The views were great. The boat trip was nice. Well done!

This was an amazing view if the REAL Rwandan countryside. Can't believe how clean everything was and the pride the citizens take in their land. Johnathan was a great driver! The lake was awesome, in spite of the thunderstorm. All in all, a wonderful day. Fully recommended.

The Lake Kivu tour was a great day trip and is highly recommended. From the fun visit of the gorilla guardians village to the stunning boat ride on Lake Kivu it was a perfect day. Lunch at the restaurant was tasty and plenty. Jonathan is a very knowledgeable and friendly guide.

Thank you Ms. Sophia for taking your time to share your positive travel experience with us. We’re thrilled you enjoyed your day trip to Lake Kivu and look forward to serving you again in future.
This trip included a full day of activities from Kigali all the way to Lake Kivu. The tour guide Jonathan was conversational and friendly, and he provided helpful and interesting information about Rwanda's landscapes, culture, and history. Throughout the day, we stopped by a waterfall, drove through the Volcano National Park, stopped by the Gorilla Guardian Village (one of my favorite parts of the day), passed by a tea plantation, enjoyed beautiful views of the volcanos and hills of Northwest Rwanda, and enjoyed a nice lunch, Hotsprings experience, and sunset boat ride on Lake Kivu. I would highly recommend Silverbird Tours Agency and Jonathan!
Dear Lana Kan We appreciate your feedback and are delighted to know you enjoyed our service. Your satisfaction is our top priority, and we look forward to serving you again soon.
Once you arrive at Kivu Lake, your breath will be taken by how massive and beautiful the lake and views are. We even got a chance to sit in the hot spring! We ended our day at El Classico Beach Restaurant, to say the food was delicious is an understatement. Our guide was great! Fiacre was knowledgeable and safe. Communication with Silver Bird Tours was easy, highly recommend the company and guide.
Dear sgx756, Thank you for letting us know that you enjoyed our service and we look forward to seeing you again. Thank you for your continued support.
Jonathan was a great guide! Very friendly and caring. The village has some interesting portions, but was a little gimmicky for my taste. The TripAdvisor/Viator listing needs to be updated, because you do not visit the hot springs or a tea plantation. Lake Kivu, however was stunning and the boat ride was very serene. Also, it should be noted just the drive from Kigali to the lake is quite beautiful - driving through the countryside you get to see many different facets of Rwanda.
Dear DazzelB, We appreciate your continued support and choosing to travel with us. Thank you so much for this review, we thrive hard to make every adventure seamless and enjoyable and we sure promise we will adjust to as you have mentioned. Best regards.
Silverbird Tours helped me plan a daytrip from Kigali to Lake Kivu and then delivering me at the airport at the end. The company is wonderful to work with - thry reply fast by e-mail, give advice and are totally reliable. The driver, Justin, was great at making conversation, explaining and giving good inside information about the country. In this trip I saw coffee and tea plantations, views of landscape and scenery, traditional dancing, tasted local food and experienced Lake Kivu. The whole daytrip gave me so much impressions and it was a fantastic way to see Rwanda.
Dear Trond We truly appreciate your continuous support and trust in us. Your 5-star review brightens our day and serves as a constant reminder of why we love what we do.
The whole experience was enlightening. I love the Gorrilla Guardians Village tour the most - getting to learn about their traditional customers and partaking in some of them. Jonathan was an amazing driver and guide. He is a great conversationalist and his passion for Rwanda was very infectious.
Dear Minoltan, We are so excited to know you had a great time with us, we look forward to having you again and again
