What To Expect

Akagera National Park is a haven of biodiversity and a testament to successful conservation. Known for hosting the iconic Big Five—lions, elephants, rhinos, buffaloes, and leopards—this journey takes you from the southern entrance to the northern exit of the park. You’ll traverse open savannahs, lush wetlands, and scenic landscapes, encountering graceful giraffes, zebras, antelopes, as well as hippos and crocodiles along the shores of Lake Ihema. Akagera is a paradise with over 500 bird species, including the striking shoebill stork and the regal African fish eagle. Immerse yourself in the wild, soak in the tranquility of the natural surroundings, and discover the inspiring story of Akagera’s revival—a transformation from near collapse to a thriving conservation success. Whether you’re drawn to close wildlife encounters, stunning scenery, or the chance to learn about groundbreaking conservation efforts, this safari offers an extraordinary experience filled with lasting memories.

I went on this safari solo and had a great time! My guide Emile was awesome and knew all the best spots to see animals. He was always patient and willing to wait for me to get the best pictures. The pickup in Kigali was on time and by leaving early we were able to beat the traffic and make it to the park by 8am! My guide was patient with explaining everything and truly dedicated to making sure I saw as many animals as possible close-up. Even though the day I went was very hot, we managed to see lions, elephants, rhinos, buffalo, hippos, giraffes, warthogs, and a large number of zebra, impalas, and waterbuck. Would definitely recommend this experience for anyone interested in exploring all of Akagera!
One off my bucket list!

Simply awesome! The beautiful african animals against the backdrop of the savannah! All exiting soecies so close and in their own habitat! As a bonus, we learnt about the important role the park has in enhancing the life of the animals who live there and in the same time, contribute to the livelyhoods of the communities around the park.
Amazing Experience!
