Kigali: Akagera National Park Safari Day Trip

Discover the rich biodiversity of Akagera National Park on a day trip from Kigali. Spot the Big Five and other wildlife on a guided game drive through the park.
Experience the breathtaking beauty and rich biodiversity of Akagera National Park in Rwanda with this engaging one-day safari itinerary. Perfect for wildlife enthusiasts and nature lovers, this adventure not only lets you see the Big Five but also invites you to explore stunning landscapes.

Begin your day by arriving at Akagera National Park before sunrise. Since the park lies about two hours from Kigali, it makes for an ideal day trip. After you check in at the park entrance, grab your safari pass and prepare for the adventure ahead.

Begin your adventure with a guided morning game drive. This time proves best for wildlife viewing, as animals remain most active during the cooler hours. Keep an eye out for lions lounging under trees, elephants gathering near water sources, and giraffes and zebras grazing in the grasslands.

Your experienced guide will share insights about the flora and fauna, enhancing your safari experience significantly. After your morning drive, stop at the Hilltop Viewpoint to soak in breathtaking panoramic views of the park and Lake Ihema. Capture stunning photographs of the landscape while you’re there.

Next, enjoy a packed picnic lunch at one of the designated picnic spots within the park. Relax, take in the serene surroundings, and recharge for the afternoon adventures ahead.

Following lunch, head to Lake Ihema for a refreshing boat ride. This unique perspective allows you to spot hippos, crocodiles, and various bird species. Don’t forget your binoculars to catch glimpses of African Fish Eagles, kingfishers, and herons.

After the boat ride, embark on another game drive to explore different areas of the park. During this drive, keep your eyes peeled for buffalo roaming near the grasslands and antelopes, such as Topi and Impala.

As your day winds down, begin your journey back to the park entrance. Take a moment to reflect on the incredible wildlife encounters and stunning landscapes you’ve experienced. Finally, return to Kigali, filled with memories from your Akagera adventure. Consider visiting local markets or restaurants to savor Rwandan cuisine and share stories from your safari.
