By bus from gisenyi
1. Onatracom runs a bus from Gisenyi to Kibuye most everyday. The bus is extremely crowded and you often won't get a seat. However, with a price of only 2000 RWF it is great deal. The ride takes around 5 hours. From Gisenyi, the bus leaves at around 730 AM. Get there well ahead of time if you want to have a seat.
2. A second bus line, Zam Zamu, runs a camper-bus looking bus service between Gisenyi and Kibuye. This bus leaves at around 11/12 o'clock and costs 3000RWF. It is smaller and more comfortable than the Onatracom. The trip takes roughly the same amount of time though.
By bus from kigali
1. Capital bus line runs from Kigali to Kibuye and back every hour on the hour. As of late September 2011, the cost is currently 2600 RWF. The trip will take you about two hours and forty-five minutes.
2. A second option is to take a local bus matatu which costs the same amount as the more legitimate bus line Capital.
3. Do not take an Impala Express bus. They are the same price as Capital but they make frequent stops. A trip that took us 2.5 hours on Capital took 4 hours with Impala.
By boat
It is supposedly possible to catch a ride from Gisenyi to Kibuye on the boat Primus boat. This fleet of boats will run whenever there is a need to transport beverages from the Bralirwa bottling facility in La Brasserie Gisenyi to either Kibuye or Cyangugu.
