1-Day Akagera National Park Safari Game Drive

• A transfer from the airport can be arranged for an extra cost.

A driver-guide from Hope Tours Rwanda will pick you up from your hotel in Kigali at 5h00, give a short briefing on your safari, and then drive to the eastern part of Rwanda to Akagera National Park (2h30), passing through Rwanda’s otherworldly landscapes and living styles. Arriving at the park, you will head to the park headquarters for registration and briefing, then proceed on a morning game drive in this African savannah park, which takes about 4 to 5 hours, depending on your arrival time. While on your game drive with our guide, you will have the chance to enjoy the beautiful sights and sounds of this African Savannah Park, including the big five of Africa.

Known as one of the most scenic savannahs in East Africa, the game drive in Akagera provides the opportunity to view gentle hills blending beautifully with lowland swamps and water bodies. You will exit with more games viewing en route to Kigali.
