This one full-day game drive tour allows you to explore Akagera National Park, the only savannah park in Rwanda. The park is famous for hosting several wildlife species, such as Elephants, Giraffes, Hippos, kobs, and bushbucks, not forgetting the king of the jungle and the sneaky cats (lion and leopard). There is also aquatic life, such as crocodiles and Hippos; note that the park is only 2.5 hrs from the capital, Kigali, making it a not-to-miss activity even if you are too busy with meetings.
