The bus will take you through the town of Muhanga and on in the direction of Ruhango. About 7.5 kilometres (10-15 minutes) after Muhanga town you will get to a village area called Byimana. We are on the main road on the left hand side. The Azizi Life office is before you get to Ruhango and so you will need to let the bus driver know you wish to get off at Azizi Life in Byimana.
