Combine game viewing in Akagera National Park with its varied wildlife with a gorilla trekking in Rwanda.
This is a superb opportunity to not only view the gorillas but also to experience Central Africa’s largest protected wetland and the last remaining refuge for savannah-adapted species in Rwanda.
Early wake up call and depart to the East of the country to reach Akagera National Park. A packed breakfast will be organise for you to enjoy enroute. Check in at the luxury Magashi Camp and relax before the afternoon game activity. Back at the lodge on time for dinner and night. Everything about Magashi is a thrilling quest. Watch elephants, near camp, submerge in the lake’s silvery blue waters. Drive across miles of open savannah tracking rhinos, giraffes and lions. Try your hand at catch-and-release fishing, watched by a shy sitatunga. And listen to the stories of the land during a traditional Kugisha supper around a roaring fire with friends old and new.
