Rwanda Launches Air Balloon Rides in Akagera Park

Tourists visiting Akagera National Park will be exposed to a new adventurous product following the launch of the first air balloon experience in Rwanda.

The development comes as a result of an agreement between Rwanda Development Board (RDB) and Royal Balloon as well as Akagera Management Company.

Under the agreement, Royal Balloon Rwanda will operate two hot air balloons that can accommodate 4 to 6 guests.

Tourists will also be able to soar as high as 100m to 1000m above the park's scenic savanna-covered landscapes inhabited by the big 5 - namely, elephants, rhinos, lions, leopards and buffaloes - and other vast varieties of wildlife.
