Akagera National Park is a special place for this 4 Days Akagera National Park Rwanda Safari, but one thing that makes it stand out is the home to the BIG 5. Visit Akagera for an impressive and exciting experience from game driving to spot out the zebras, buffaloes, warthogs, lions, leopards, and rhinos. A boat safari along Lake Ihema remains the most rewarding experience to encounter aquatic life such as crocodiles, monitor lizards, and spectacular birds. Have the honor to stay at Karenge bush camp an eco-facility and get so immersed in absolute nature.
