What to expect during the safari holiday in Rwanda? Are you interested in taking a safari to Rwanda or Uganda and wondering what some of the safari expectations for this fantastic safari might be? Here I bring you some of the great things that you should expect during your safari in Rwanda or Uganda. Rwanda and Uganda are both landlocked countries, and they are neighbors. However, Rwanda is smaller as compared to Uganda. Below are some of the things that you can expect to see in Rwanda. Please take your time and look at them for the best safari experience.

What is it like to visit Uganda?

You can have a full day or a week of adventure as you explore and dig for the pearl of Africa. Every place you stay, you will see the new attractions and the adventure safari, so you should make sure you visit this country for the full adventure. Some of the roads feature new-looking track roads, and some of the roads are very different. The roads are tense, especially on the highways and within the city. However, the road becomes murram, especially when you approach the national park and the game reserves. Even in the villages and the remote areas, the road coverage is murray. If you are driving, you will need to prepare yourself for some long hours of driving, and it will take about 4 hours to access the most accessible national park. The beautiful scenery along the road is stunning, and you will go through the rushing plantations and the beautiful valleys and hills as you are going to your destination, and this is very much an interesting experience. Please feel free to tell your driver to stop whenever you see something of interest that you’d like to explore more. This makes the safari so much more wonderful and interesting.

On the other hand, safaris in Rwanda are much easier as compared to those in Uganda. The government constructed the tarmac roads, and the road from Kigali to Volcanoes National Park is good, but at times you might face a lot of traffic, but you will enjoy most of the unpaved roads, which are interesting and beautiful. The roads are so interesting, and the fact that Rwanda is not a big country but a small country makes the country so much more interesting and wonderful for visitors to enjoy the safari activities. A gorilla following license costs $700 in Uganda, compared to $1,500 in Rwanda, making it cheaper to follow gorillas in Uganda than in Rwanda. It is a little less expensive in the DRC, but the DRC’s consistency is never unsurprising, so Uganda wins out as the ideal place to track the endangered gorillas.

Uganda has four gorilla tracking centers spaced out across Bwindi Impenetrable National Park, whereas Rwanda only has one public park with gorillas, making the location a bit of a challenge for trackers. While tracking gorillas in Uganda, you have a good chance of seeing other animals such as woodland birds, beautiful monkeys in Mgahinga, forest elephants, and so on.

What else can you do besides trek the gorillas in Rwanda?

Rwanda has got a lot of other attractions besides the mountain gorillas, and these, among others, include a visit to Akagera National Park. In the east, there’s Akagera National Park, a bewildering combination of lakes and savannah fields with plenty of big game and outstanding birds, as you’d expect from a recreation area on the Tanzanian border. Here, game drives and strolls, as well as boat safaris and fishing, should be accessible. Travel south, past bustling green tea plantations, to Nyungwe Forest, where you may go chimp trekking. Apart from chimps, this park is home to up to 13 additional primate species (representing 25% of Africa’s total), including L’Hoest’s monkeys, brilliant and silver monkeys, mangabeys, incredible birds, and, weirdly enough, a plethora of chameleons.

There are a few decent hotels here where you may sit and relax on sandy beaches on the lake’s borders for a few days to decompress. The journey to Gisenyi and Lake Kivu is breathtaking, weaving through volcanoes, tea plantations, and rice farms. Finally, while a visit to the poignant Genocide Memorial is recommended, there is vibrancy and energy in many of the city’s marketplaces, as well as a vibrant arts and music scene, with frequent performances. So come and experience the Ugandan and Rwanda safari holiday experiences.
