Itinerary

Transfer to Akagera

Akagera

Your adventure begins with a morning pick-up from your hotel in Kigali. After a scenic 2.5-hour drive through Rwanda’s famous rolling hills, you’ll arrive at Akagera National Park. Enjoy a game drive where you’ll spot herds of elephants, buffaloes, antelopes, giraffes, and zebras roaming the savannah. In the afternoon, head out for a boat cruise on Lake Ihema, the perfect opportunity to watch pods of hippos, basking crocodiles, and dazzling birdlife along the shores.

Morning game drive & Transfer

Wake up early for a sunrise game drive—the best time to catch predators such as lions, hyenas, and leopards in action. As the morning sun lights up the savannah, look out for herds of antelopes grazing and elephants majestically moving through the bush. After the drive, you’ll exit the park and head back to Kigali, arriving around midday. Drop off at your hotel or Kigali International Airport.
