Akagera National Park

Akagera National Park is a breathtaking destination located in eastern Rwanda. It is a place where nature meets the wild, where you can experience the African savannah and see some of the most beautiful animals in the world.

Akagera National Park was established in 1934 to protect the animals and the ecosystem of the area. The park is named after the Akagera River, which flows along its eastern boundary, forming the border with Tanzania. The park covers an area of 1,122 square kilometers, making it the largest protected wetland in Central Africa.

One of the highlights of Akagera National Park is the chance to see the Big Five – lions, elephants, buffalos, leopards, and rhinoceroses. The park is home to over 12,000 large mammals, including zebras, giraffes, and several species of antelope. There are also over 500 species of birds in the park, making it a paradise for bird watchers.

Elegant Africa Travels™ offers several different tours and activities in Akagera National Park. One of the most popular options is the game drive, which allows you to see the wildlife up close and personal. Our experienced guides know the best spots to see the animals and can provide you with in-depth knowledge about the park and its inhabitants.

Another option is the boat ride on Lake Ihema, which is the second-largest lake in Rwanda. The lake is home to hippos, crocodiles, and several species of water birds. The boat ride is a peaceful and relaxing way to experience the park and its wildlife.
