Memorable trip I had In Rwanda with Afrisafaris - I recently had an unforgettable experience with Afrisafaris on a trip to Akagera! From start to finish, the team was incredibly supportive and attentive. They made sure every detail was taken care of, allowing us to fully enjoy the stunning wildlife and breathtaking landscapes of Akagera without any worries. The guides were knowledgeable and passionate about the park, adding depth to every sighting and encounter. I felt safe, well-supported, and truly valued as a guest. I highly recommend Afrisafaris to anyone looking for a seamless and enriching safari experience. Looking forward to planning another adventure with them!

My best safari experience in Rwanda - I had the best safari experience in Akagera National Park on my day off in Rwanda. Seeing zebras, giraffes, elephants, impalas, hippos and more different animals in the African bush was one of the best wildlife encounters I have ever experienced. The service was excellent. My guide was on time and very professional. I would highly recommend this tour!!

Incredible Safari experience at Akagera - I had a magical experience to see the incredible diversity of African wildlife in their natural habitats during my safari at Akagera National Park. The sounds, smells, and sights of the African bush really connected me with the nature and will stay with me forever, along with the amazing guide and Afri Safaris team with their warm service and open hearts. I can't recommend highly enough!

Wonderful safari experience - I had a wonderful safari experience in Akagera National Park operated by Afri Safaris. Everything was professional and exactly as described. My trip started with a pick up at Kigali Marriott hotel my guide Ben was on time ( a few minutes early, actually), i get briefed about the trip , country and the park. Ben was an amazing guide, Knowledgeable and careful driver. In fact, I saw so many animals more than I expected. I would use this company again and would recommend to everyone interested in safari.

Haven for the nature lovers - I had a majestic and unforgettable safari experience in Akagera that I would like to recommend. I was in Kigali for work with my colleagues and we decided to do a safari for our day off. We went to Akagera National Park with Afri Safaris. The service we got from the beginning up to the end was amazing. Our driver guide Sam really took care of us, he explained a lot about the animals, the park and the country. We had an encounter with many different animals in their natural habitat. The landscape of the park is also very beautiful.

The best experience in Akagera - We had an amazing experience time in Akagera National Park. The service was excellent from the time we booked up to the end of our tour. Our driver guide Ben was really helpful, he picked up us from Kigali Marriott hotel on time. He showed us the countryside and connected us with the nature. He is very knowledgeable about the park and the country, Ben really went overboard in showing us many animals as much possible and we saw so many including ( Rhinos, Elephants, Giraffes, Buffaloes, Antelopes, Lions and more). we can recommend this tour!!
