From Kigali to the Wild – A Perfect Day with Savvy Tours! - Last month, I had the most incredible experience with Savvy Tours and Travel Agency on a One Day Private Tour to Akagera National Park. As a traveler from New York, I was looking for a smooth, enriching, and memorable adventure and Savvy Tours delivered exactly that!
I was promptly picked up from the Radisson Blu Hotel in Kigali by a friendly and professional guide who made me feel welcomed and excited for the day ahead. The journey to Akagera was scenic and comfortable, with a clean, well-equipped vehicle and plenty of interesting facts shared along the way.
The park itself was breathtaking! I was lucky enough to see giraffes, elephants, zebras, buffaloes, hippos, and even a lion up close and in their natural environment. My guide’s knowledge of the wildlife and the landscape added so much depth to the experience.
Every detail was well-planned, and I never felt rushed. The care, hospitality, and professionalism of the team truly stood out.
Savvy Tours and Travel Agency went above and beyond. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone visiting Rwanda.Thank you for such a memorable day!

A one-day trip to never forget! - I booked a trip to Akagera National Parc through Savvy Tour and Travel Ltd. It was an incredible day! We spent a lot of time in the car that day, but it was worth every penny and second. We got to see a lot of animals thanks to our amazing guide Elie. Not only did he find us different animals, he also provided us with some super interesting insights about each animal and the parc itself. He was was also very nice to hang out with the whole day. I can highly recommend this trip to anyone that is passionate about nature and wildlife! An absolute MUST 😍
