4 Days Rwanda Chimpanzees & Akagera National Park

Today after breakfast at the hotel, we drive west to Lake Kivu. Lake Kivu is the main and largest water body in Rwanda neighboring Democratic Republic of Congo. The lake is one of Africa’s Great Lakes, surrounded by magnificent mountains and has deep emerald green waters. We shall have a boat trip on the lake and later we drive further south to Nyungwe Forest.

The 2.1km Igishigishigi trail, amazes with views of the canopy walk. The 200m long series of steel walk ways, towers up to 70m into the forest canopy and offers exceptional views across the rainforest and giving you a birds eye view of the park. It is a vintage point to experience the park from and also an adrenaline experience and is an impressing one. Today after breakfast we shall go for the canopy walk and later we drive to Akagera National Park. We shall enter the park through the southern gate and drive through to the lodge.

Today we embark on a game drive in the northern part of Akagera National park after our breakfast at the lodge. The roads and tracks at the Park have improved since the partnership with Africa Parks and offer varied game drives around the parks. Mornings and evenings are best times for game drive at Akagera. Morning game drives are a chance to encounter the early risers like lions, leopards (predators). Leopards are present but secretive due to their solitary life, and other life include the zebras, impalas, topis, bushbucks, elephants, giraffes, rhinos, among others. After our drive, we shall drive to Kigali for your exit flight.
