5-Day Rwanda Golfing And Big Five Safari | Kigali & Akagera

A Detailed 5-Day Rwanda Golfing And Big Five Safari

Day 1: Arrive In Kigali (Please advise your flight details)

Upon your arrival at Kigali International Airport, you will be greeted at the exit. Your personal guide will be waiting for you there to provide a brief introduction. You will also have the opportunity to learn some key phrases in the local language. After that, you will be driven the short 20 minutes to the Kigali Marriott Hotel.

Guests staying at the Kigali Marriott Hotel will have easy access to the city’s main attractions, including the Kigali Convention Center and the bustling Nyarugenge business sector. Perfectly located in the middle of Kigali’s action, our five-star hotel offers contemporary, roomy rooms with all the comforts of home plus first-rate facilities and services.

In the afternoon, after enjoying lunch at the hotel, you will have the opportunity to visit the Kigali Genocide Memorial. This historical site will serve as a sobering reminder of the Rwandan nation’s perseverance and regeneration.

Kigali City is really small—just 730 km square—but it is one of the friendliest, greenest, cleanest, and safest towns in Africa, drawing in a lot of tourists and investors despite its small size (1.3 million inhabitants). Thanks to its iconic conference and sports venues, which have a history of being the fastest-growing in Africa, the city is quickly becoming the largest MICE and sports hub. Kigali is known for its exciting nightlife and delicious cuisine, which features a diverse array of restaurants serving Indian and international cuisines.

Day 2: Day Trip To Akagera National Park – Game Drive Experience

The following morning, you will set out on a picturesque 2.5-hour trip to Akagera National Park, where you will spend the entire day going on game drives in the hopes of seeing wild animals. As you continue your wildlife drive, you will make a pit break in the park for a packed picnic bush lunch (remember to place your orders the night before).

Day 3: Play Gold At The Kigali 18 Hole Golf Course

Going to the golf course to play in the tournament with other Kigali golfers is your first order of business after breakfast.

The new luxurious and environmentally conscious Kigali Golf Resort and Villas were born in the “Land of Thousand Hills,” Africa’s most valuable treasure. Located in the heart of Rwanda’s bustling capital city, this 18-hole golf course is a work of art in design. Also included will be a golf club with seven eateries.

Experience the true essence of “the land of thousand hills” on the breathtaking course at Kigali Golf Resort & Villas.

An exquisite panoramic vista of rolling hills frames the 18-hole course, which is 6595 meters long, like an amphitheatre. The variety of plants and animals is what really makes this course special. The abundance of wildlife makes the golf course the ideal place to escape to nature, even though it is so close to the bustling city core.

The course is great for amateurs since it is accessible, but it also challenges the best of us. There is a distinct quality to each shot, thanks to the expansive greens and well-placed fairway traps. The many risk-reward shots that provide a secure approach and a more “optimistic” way of playing golf add to the excitement of the game.

Day 4: Another Day At The Golf Course

Spend the following morning enjoying breakfast at the hotel before returning to the golf course to finish the round. In the evening, you’ll have the opportunity to mingle and enjoy a beverage with some of Rwanda’s most famous golfers, among others.

Day 5: Kigali City/ Depart Rwanda

Have a leisurely morning and get some rest after what may have been a hard night. Enjoy a leisurely morning by the hotel pool and other amenities after a late breakfast. You can use the transportation and tour guides at your leisure to go on souvenir shopping excursions, see more of the city, or relax in one of the designated Kigali Car-free Zones or Kigali Recreational Parks. And with that, your enlightening and unforgettable journey to Rwanda will come to a close!
