Beyond Expectations. Amazing experience! - My overnight homestay experience in Rwanda was truly unforgettable. The family was incredibly warm and welcoming, making me feel like family. I was so moved by the experience and it was the highlight of my trip to Rwanda. The tours were also fantastic! I visited a stunning lake, tried archery on a private island, and explored the nearby city. There were also other unique attractions that made the trip even more special. Overall, this homestay experience exceeded my expectations. The combination of the wonderful family and exciting tours made it a trip I'll cherish forever. Highly recommend.

Amazing location, phenomenal family, great experience - My homestay was a phenomenal experience. The family I stayed with were absolutely amazing. Their kindness and generosity is unmatched and I felt very welcomed. I truly enjoyed every moment of the visit and learned so much about the area. The other activities in the area the next day such as the visit to the lake, the city tour, the archery on the private island, and the visit to the gorilla naming statues were also fantastic. The vehicle used was clean and spacious and I would recommend the activity.
