Goma is capital of North Kivu province, ethnically and geographically similar to South Kivu (capital Bukavu) ; the two provinces are known as “the Kivus”.It is located on the northern shore of Lake Kivu, next to the Rwandan city of Gisenyi. The lake and the two cities are in the Albertine Rift, the western branch of the East African Rift system.These will take approximately three and a half hours drive from Kigali to Goma

Goma lies only 13 to 18 km due south of the crater of the active Nyiragongo Volcano. The recent history of Goma has been dominated by the volcano and the Rwandan Genocide of 1994, which in turn fuelled the First and Second Congo Wars. The aftermath of these events was still having effects on the city and its surroundings in 2010. The city was captured by rebels during the M23 rebellion in late 2012, but has since been retaken by government forces.

People generally visit Goma en route to tracking mountain gorillas, climbing Nyiragongo or trekking in the Rwenzori Mountains. The city itself has no proper attractions, but it’s a great pre- and post-Virunga hang-out, with some excellent sleeping and eating options. You can still as well visit the shores of Lake Kivu for you boat ride and spend the day relaxing as you watch over to the lakes.
