Rwanda – 3 Days in Akagera NP

We leave Kigali to Akagera national park in the morning after your breakfast or you are picked up from the airport. The journey to the park takes about 3 hours depending on the stopovers along the way. On arrival at the park, your driver will clear with the rangers at the gate and proceed for briefing after which you proceed to the hotel for check in or a game drive depending on your interest. In the afternoon, you can choose to relax at your lodge. Alternatively you can choose to take a boat trip on Lake Ihema where you will watch out for Hippos, crocodiles and several animals coming to the park for watering. Journey time – around 3 hours. Meal plan – Lunch & Dinner. Accommodation: Up market – Magashi Camp · Luxury – Ruzizi tented camp · Mid-range – Akagera game lodge.

Depending on your interest in animal viewing, you will decide how much time to spend on a game drive in the park. Arise early and leave after breakfast for a game drive in Akagera national park. The game drive on this wildlife tour will be in our custom made safari land cruiser that will allow you to have amazing view of the wildlife as your driver guide takes you through different tracks. Look out for some of the big mammals like Elephants, Giraffes, Buffaloes, Elands, etc. In the recent past they re-introduced Lions and Rhinos in the park but these are often difficult to sight but it could be your lucky day. The park is a varied habitat for wildlife and a birders haven with over 500 species in the park. The game drive will last about 6 hours or more depending on your interests. Meal plan – Breakfast, Lunch & Dinner.

Today after a relaxed breakfast, you will return to Kigali but through the park doing one last game drive. You can choose to do a later check out and drive directly to Kigali. Journey time – 3 hours. Meal plan – Breakfast & Lunch.
