Frequently asked questions
About Kayonza
Akagera National Park is located in the eastern part of Rwanda, near the border with Tanzania. The park is known for its diverse wildlife including elephants, lions, and giraffes. The official currency used in Rwanda is the Rwandan Franc. The park offers a unique opportunity to experience a safari in a savannah setting with stunning views of Lake Ihema.
When to visit
The best time to visit Akagera National Park is during the dry season from June to September when the weather is cooler and the animals are more active. However, birdwatchers may prefer the wet season from October to May when migratory birds visit the park.
Getting around
Visitors can explore Akagera National Park by booking guided safari tours with experienced rangers who know the best spots to see wildlife. Self-drive safaris are also possible, but it is recommended to have a 4x4 vehicle due to the rough terrain. Boat safaris on Lake Ihema are another popular way to see the park's wildlife from a different perspective.
Traveller tips
Make sure to bring binoculars and a camera to capture the amazing wildlife sightings in Akagera National Park. Wear neutral-colored clothing to blend in with the surroundings and increase your chances of seeing animals up close. Respect the park's rules and regulations to ensure the safety of both visitors and wildlife. Stay hydrated and carry snacks for long safari drives. Book accommodations in advance, especially during peak tourist seasons, to secure your preferred lodging options.
