Akagera National Park Game Drive

Safari

Akagera National Park Game Drive

A private safari through Rwanda's savannah, lakes and wetlands in search of iconic African wildlife.

Experience overview

A personal experience, planned around you.

Akagera shows a very different Rwanda: open savannah, lakes, wetlands and classic safari wildlife. Eric can arrange a private full-day game drive from Kigali or make it part of a multi-day route.
