The host is realy friendly and welcoming. He also works in the local tourism and thus knows great places to visit apart from the gorilla trekking. Our car broke down the morning we wanted to leave and he was a great help with getting the right mechanics.

There are only 4 or 5 rooms so staying at Volcano View is like coming home. Nice and clean rooms, chill terrace, supernice staff and Isaac - the owner - is very welcoming. We enjoyed our stay here. Thank you for everything!

The best experience! We have slept in many homestays and hotels, and nothing could surpass Virunga Homestays. We felt very much welcome here. The host was very nice and helpful, gave us many tips and prepared breakfast for us at the time we would’ve wanted to (either 6 am or 9 am, did not matter). After a very tough hike climbing the Mount Bisoke, he made us dinner: not to exaggerate, but it was the best dinner we ate so far in Rwanda. Very thankful and definitely coming back!

Wow wow wow… can I also give 100 stars? A very Cousy but basic place to stay at the Vulcanos Nationalpark! However the best thing about the Vulcanoes view guest house is the staff. No wish is to big and everything is made possible! For example they carried the table, chairs and food on to a field. I never had dinner with such an amazing view!! So I just can recommend to stay here.

    This homestay is wonderful! I am so happy that I found it. The room is clean and quiet, the breakfast and dinner that are included are tasty, but the best part is the family. They are so kind and welcoming — for this reason this is my favorite place to stay in Rwanda. Thank you so much Monique!

    It's really more of a homestay, which I personally appreciated. The host helped me with an excellent last minute trip to the twin lakes on the day of arrival and the two lovely girls working there took excellent care of me during the entire stay. Delicious breakfast and outstanding dinner. Secure parking and as a bonus a lovely dog (stays outside, well groomed, likes pets but is okay if you don't feel like it). All in all, highly recommended!
