Akagera National Park

Akagera National Park

Savannah wildlife reborn through conservation.

Why Akagera?

Rwanda’s Big Five Landscape

Akagera National Park offers classic savannah safari in eastern Rwanda, with open plains, lakes and rolling hills supporting elephant, lion, buffalo, leopard and rhino.

Once severely depleted, the park has undergone remarkable restoration through conservation partnership, resulting in the return of key species and revitalised ecosystems. Game drives and boat safaris on Lake Ihema provide varied wildlife viewing.

Akagera pairs well with Volcanoes or Kigali, offering traditional safari contrast to primate-focused experiences.
