Flexible guided tour adjusted to your wishes - We were searching for a short hike to get a nice view at the volcanoes, we even spotted a couple of golden monkeys and got a glipse of how the farmers are living. The price was fine with $40 per person, for 2 hours. Janet was a kind, flexible and well informed guide.

Great day trip to the caves and scenic walk around the Volcanoes Park - Did a day trip with Beyond to go to the Musanze Caves and then do a scenic walk (2-3 hours) around the foothills of the Volcanoes National Park. Whole thing was well organised and great from start to finish. Pleasure to deal with, very helpful and accommodating. The guides, Simon and Fernando, were fantastic and I had a great time in the caves and on the walk. The walk was lovely with excellent views of the volcanoes, lots of interesting information about the local fauna and area. A long with a nice close up look at some of the local's farms and villages. All ending with a nice beer and tasty food at the beer garden on the foot of Mt Bisoke. If you're looking to check out the park / area without doing a Gorilla or Monkey trek or hiking to the top of a volcano, this is a great option.

Rural hike to Twin Lakes - we took a 2h30 minutes hike through rural villages up to the peak to have an amazing view of the Twin Lakes , our guide was Jeannette that all along the way explained vwell the activities of the rural people . very interesting . we started at 1850mt and reached the peak at 2120mt , so physically possible for all. Jeanette carried some extra water in case of need and a snack. I really recommend this half day excursion for the wonderful view and colors . The only thing is that I have found the tour slightly overpriced , me and my husband paid 100$ cash and we had our driver to deliver us to the starting point and picking us up at the ending .
