🙏 Hi guys. Please don't contact me directly with travel questions and the like. I don't have a lot of free time and don't want to offend by not responding. It's best to leave a comment on the video. I do read most of them and your question will hopefully help others. 🙏

Thank you for making this beautiful video. I'm planning on visiting Rwanda in 2025 and would love to visit the lodge. Do you have any suggestions of how to get there from Kigali with local transportation? Peace and good health... Terry ~

Hi Terry, thanks for watching. The main bus station in town is called Nyabugogo. It's a bit hectic, but if you turn up there someone will ask you where you want to go. Tell them Gisenyi and they'll help you get a ticket and put you on the right bus. I haven't been by bus for a while, but it was less than $5 last time I went. I think the prices might have gone up since then, but it shouldn't be too expensive. Busses go about every half an hour so you won't have to wait long. Most of the busses going there will probably say Rubavu on them (everywhere in Rwanda has two names - Rubavu is the correct name today, but most people still call it Gisenyi). Gisenyi is the last stop on the route, so you can't get lost. It takes about 3-3.5 hours. There are two parts to the town, the lodge is over one side (right next to a hotel called Nirvana, which has a lovely infinity pool, and Paradise Malahide, which does good food by the lakeshore - nice at sunset). The other part of town is the beach at the back of Serena Hotel and the beach-side bars. You can go between the two by public moto (check out my video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/aZixaoanj8h7ZqMfeature=shared ). The bus stops on the bar side, so take a taxi across the bay to the lodge. Inzu also run a floating tiki bar, but you need four people - so you could team up with other campers: kzbin.info/www/bejne/r4XFgJ9qmceBgbcfeature=shared One last thing about Inzu is it's cash only.

Thank you so much. I'm deeply grateful for all the information. Your videos are wonderful.. I'm hoping to stay a month and learn more about the events of 1994. The lodge looks like a beautiful place. ❤🙏

If anyone is wondering - yes, I was standing in my garden trying to record the building noise when Sophie got dive-bombed by the bird of prey. 😒
