Fågelskådningsäventyr en dag i Kigali Rwanda
Beskrivning
Fågellivet runt Kigali är en introduktion till fågellivet i Östafrika eftersom dessa platser är en blandning av livsmiljöer inklusive gräsmark, våtmarker och sjöar (dammar). Fåglar på en (eller alla) av de nämnda platserna, är en introduktion till fåglar i Rwanda och du har också ett tillfälle att se sällsynta fåglar som vitkragad Oliveback, Papyrus Gonolek och Papyrus Canary.
Turalternativ
Resplan
Vi har en 3 timmars fågelskådning i Nyandungu Urban Wetland Eco-turism Park främst för att se fåglar. Nyandungu är en nyrestaurerad våtmark i Kigali City; det ligger i 1,5 km från Kigali internationella flygplats och bara 25 minuters bilresa från stadens centrum. Över 100 fåglar registrerades i detta område bland annat vitkragad olivrygg, gulbröstad apalis, dubbeltandad barbett, etc.
Umusambi är ett Kinyarwanda-namn som betyder Gra-kronad trana. Byn är en nyskapad fristad för att rädda populationen av Gra-kronad trana från den olagliga husdjurshandeln. Till fördel för skyddet av platsen kommer fler fåglar till platsen för mat och reproduktion. Många arter av kungsfiskare, t.ex. pirål, malakit och afrikansk pygmé, använder vattendammar som matkälla. Vi tillbringar 2 till 3 timmar av morgonen för att turnera runt helgedomen innan vi har vår lunchrast.
Våtmarker i Bugesera, särskilt Gashora våtmark, är hem för papyrus och vattenfågelarter. Dessa platser är hem för Papyrus Gonolek, Papyrus Canary, Carruthers Cisiticola och flockar av Glossy Ibis. Du kan ha en förmiddag eller eftermiddag på denna plats för att se de mest våtmarksfåglar i den östafrikanska regionen.

We had the chance to go on a birding tour in Kigali, and to say it was wonderful is an understatement. Our guide, Joseph, was amazing, so knowledgeable but most of all, incredibly passionate. His love for birds and conservation is truly contagious. We enjoyed spending the day with him and our driver, Alex, so so much. We only wished we had more time to absorb more knowledge. If you like birds, book this tour, you will not regret it. If you don’t like birds, you should also book this tour, I’m sure you’ll like them by the end. I can’t stress enough how amazing Joseph was. We are so happy we found this tour, and honestly can’t wait to come back and go birding with him again. We were able to identify over 60 different species of birds. Thank you so so much, we truly loved it.
Claudien was our guide and he was very knowledgeable on birds and where to take us . Highly recommend him
Thank you so much Sharon, it was a pleasure to take you for a day around Kigali.
The Guide is very knowledgable, he knows all the Bird names by heart, knows where to look for them and points out facts and behaviour. Wonderful landscape, too. Take a raincoat during rain season 🙃 Pick up, drop off and Lunch Break worked well, too.
Thank you very much Annika for choosing Birding and Educational Tours Rwanda and thank you for the positive review. I hope you enjoyed our services and we will be happy to host you again in future. Have a nice day.
Claudien proved to be a punctuel and seriously expert birder, equipped with quality binocs and scope and call recordings and deep familiarity with the species of the area. He is flexible and easy company. The urban wetland is perfect for birding: paved pathway cutting through marshes, ponds, and woodlands, litter'free, uncrowded, and secure.
Hello Lawrence, Thank you so much for your visit to Rwanda and choosing Birding and Educational Tours Rwanda for a day birding around Kigali. I hope you had a Merry Christmas and I wish you a happy New year.
This was an unplanned trip for me whilst at a conference in Kigali. I had an extra day free before heading back home. Claudien made himself available and organized a great day in the wetlands. We also talked a lot about life in Rwanda so it was more than just a birding trip. I highly recommend booking a trip with him.
Thank you so much Do for the positive review, it was a pleasure to have a day birding with you in wetlands of Bugesera and we hope to host you again (or your friends) in near future. All the best
I cannot recommend Birding and Educational Tours enough! The experience far exceeded my expectations. Claudien’s expertise in identification of local species, and knowledge of where to find them, was invaluable. We managed to see 69 different species including some rare sightings. Booking was easy, the tour started on time, lunch was lovely, and the birding locations were excellent. As a solo female traveler, I felt safe throughout. It was also wonderful to have the opportunity to support a local business. Claudien went above and beyond to ensure I was able to get the most from the experience.
Thank you so much Dana for the positive review. i hope to host you and/or your friends in near future. God bless you!
I had a great time with Claudien, a knowledgeable and academically-trained birdwatcher. I saw about 40 species of birds in a day in large part due to his expertise. I would happily choose other tours with this team.
Thank you very much Pilar for the positive review; it was a pleasure to have a day birding with you around Bugesera and Nyandungu Urban Wetland Eco-tourism Park and I hope to hist you again in near future. All the best
