Set amidst the warm and low-lying plains of Rwanda, Akagera National Park showcases a unique blend of savannah, woodland, wetland, and a network of picturesque lakes. Its open landscapes provide an exceptional game-viewing experience, offering the chance to spot the Big Five in large numbers. A standout highlight is a boat ride on Lake Ihema, where visitors can marvel at large pods of hippos, Nile crocodiles, and a variety of waterbirds that thrive on the islands dotting the lake. Akagera is a spectacular destination for wildlife enthusiasts and nature lovers alike.
