Kisoro

Today was yet another travel day, but given that we were going to be spending 3 nights in Kisoro, it was a lot more manageable. The drive, although very long - taking from 8am to 4pm - the landscape was much more appealing than previous drives. There was plenty of farming and crop land even as we got into the mountains, and it transformed the landscape from african to somewhere in South-East Asia. This made it much more fun, although it was still very painful after a while. We arrived in Kisoro late afternoon and simply arranged ourselves into dorms, with quite a few people upgrading. It was our first night on the tour that we were given beds without having to pay extra for them. But they were very shit, and the hostel in general was fucking tragic. It was rated 2.7 stars out of 10 on booking.com, and so expectations were low, yet still, it managed to be underwhelming. We had dinner organised for us, which was a huge plus for us, but did not make up for the horrible condition of the hostel. We were the only occupants, and it is easy to see why. I am guessing Aboslute Africa only utilised this accommodation because they organised a lot of activities for their guests, but even this proved to be a stitch up, which we would discover tomorrow. Regardless, we persisted through and gave ourselves an early night after a boring, yet somehow exhausting day of driving.Meer informatie
