Itinerary
Our Full Day Safari in Akagera National Park combines both the Game Drive and Sunrise Boat Cruise on Lake Ihema. This tour is purposely designed and operated as an ideal opportunity for travellers to experience the savannahs in search of the Africa’s Big Five Animals: Elephant, Lion, Leopard, Buffalo and Rhinocero, and a sunrise guided boat excursion to view aquatic wildlife as well as water birds. As you drive through this safari park from the southern gate to the northern gate, enjoy the beauty of one of Africa’s finest wildlife sanctuaries, beautiful views of the hills majestically rolling down sights and capture memorable photographs of iconic species such as elephants, lions, rhinos, giraffes, buffaloes, zebras, hippos, crocodiles and hundreds of bird species. Lunch break will be taken from Mihindi Picnic Area as you cool off and refresh before restarting your adventure. When this tour is finished, travel back to Kigali. Drop-off at your point of choice.

We had an amazing time in Rwanda! With the best tour guide ever and the most wonderful hosts… thank you very much for the incredible experience and the unforgettable memories!
Thank you so much for your kind words, Thomas! We’re thrilled to hear you had an amazing time in Rwanda and that your experience with Ikaze Rwanda Tours Team left such a strong impression. It was truly our pleasure to help you create unforgettable memories. We hope to welcome you back to Rwanda again soon for more adventures. Murakoze!
We booked a four-day private safari. We started in Musanze (Ruhengeri). We visited Kivu Lake, Nyungwe Park and Akagera National Park. We (four of us) spent a very intensive but also eventful four days in Rwanda; a boat trip and swimming in Lake Kivu, canopy walk, chimpanzees trekking in the rainforest and a safari in Akagera park, exploring virtually the whole country. We agreed the plan for the whole trip in advance.. I must admit that we spent a relatively long time in the jeep The distances are not great, but it takes quite a while to get there. if you don't want to drive that far, you can actually skip Lake Kivu. It might also be worth adding one day in Akagera park and a night safari there. Gorilla trekking in Volcanoes is also very good option, especially when you are in Musanze - we did it earlier, therefore it was not included in the plan this time. Everything was well prepared. We also had a good, friendly guide and driver in one - with previous experience in the Akagera park (he was our guide there). We could hear lots of interesting stories about nature and life in Rwanda itself.
Thanks so much for taking your precious time to leave us a 5-star rating–it's so much appreciated. Your 4-Day Rwanda Safari was a delight and we fully enjoyed every second spent with you and your team. From your positive review, we still learn a thing or two on now to keep improving travel experiences to Rwanda. We cannot wait to host you once again in the near future. Once again, thanks for visiting Rwanda with Ikaze Rwanda Tours & Travel. Murakoze!
