Kayaking on Lake Kivu in the African Rift Valley

Short excursions and spectacular multi-day kayaking adventures

Kayak on a journey of discovery in the heart of Africa. Travel peacefully along the spectacular coast of one of the African Rift Valley’s Great Lakes.  Witness the verdant landscape, vibrant local communities, as well as the birds and wildlife that thrive in the water, on the shores and islands of Lake Kivu. Spend a few hours, a full day, do an overnight trip or go on anything up to an incredible 10-day adventure, staying in luxury lodges, simple guesthouses and camping on uninhabited islands.
