Akagera National Park is Central Africa’s largest protected wetland and Rwanda’s only Big Five savannah reserve: lions, rhinos, elephants, leopards, and buffalo roam between blinking lakes and open plains. You will travel just 2 to 3 hours east of Kigali (about 110 - 130 km) to reach Akagera, then ease into lakeside calm on nearby Lake Muhazi before returning to the city. Smart routing that keeps driving short and the experiences rich. Along the way, you will explore Nyandungu Eco-Park Kigali’s restored urban wetland, next you will reflect at the Belgian Peacekeepers Memorial, and end with a colorful shopping stop at Kimironko Market. This 4 days Akagera National Park Rwanda and Lake Muhazi itinerary balances exciting wildlife drives, a Lake Ihema boat safari, and a restful night on Lake Muhazi, designed for comfort, photography, and easy logistics.

This safari is Easy: vehicle based game drives with simple walks around lodges, markets, and eco parks.
