Ruzizi’s tented suites are located among lush foliage of swaying palms and fig trees, accessible via wooden walkways. The spacious suites each have an en suite bathroom, dressing areas and a queen-sized or twin beds. Each tent opens onto small patio where you can sit and enjoy the peace and tranquillity of the forest, savour views of the lake and even sight fish eagles and other birdlife.
Set among swaying palms and giant fig trees is the main lodge living and dining area, with a short boardwalk leading down to a large viewing deck overlooking Lake Ihema. A camp fire is lit each night on the deck adding to the ambience of this tranquil lake-side retreat. The entire camp runs on solar power and 100 percent of the profits are returned into the long-term sustainability of Akagera National Park.
Meals are most often served on a large boarded terrace overlooking the lake with a central fire at dinner time which adds to the lovely alfresco atmosphere. Try local Rwandan delicacies like sambaza (small fish) and urwagwa (banana beer) as well as modern continental dishes. Breakfast is served early before the morning’s activities and in time for sunrise as kingfishers and weaver birds bustle across the lake.
