Mantis Kivu Queen uBuranga is a floating luxury hotel that cruises along one of Africa’s great lakes, Lake Kivu in Rwanda. Lake Kivu is a 90km-long freshwater lake that lies along Africa’s Great Rift Valley and is lined with pretty fishing villages.

With crystal clear, clean waters, it is a beautiful destination with no hippos or crocodiles, also making it one of the safest lakes in Africa. 

The hotel has 10 modern cabins, a swimming pool, restaurant, bar, and a viewing deck with a hot tub; this unique boat experience will take you on a luxury tour in the mild equatorial montane climate.
