THE DETAILS

Wilderness Magashi

Private. Peaceful. Participatory. Akagera National Park is a story of survival and regeneration. And significantly, Rwanda's last remaining refuge for savannah species. Help us keep it that way by joining us in tracking and monitoring leopard, lion and rhino through the use of identikits. A wonderful way to become part of the Magashi rehabilitation story.

Impact at Magashi

We made history at Magashi when we partnered with the Rwanda Development Board and African Parks. Since its opening in 2019, two of our guides became the first-ever Rwandans to receive a coveted FGASA qualification. Today, Akagera’s rebirth is an extraordinary conservation success story. And you’re part of it, helping increase the world’s wilderness and our ability to help protect it.

Magashi experiences

Immerse yourself in Rwanda’s savannah on our private wilderness area in Akagera. Wake to a chorus of birds, elephants quietly wading into the lake, and a freshly brewed cup of coffee, before heading out to experience the East African wild. Game drives and boating end with an evening of traditional cuisine, stories, song, and dance.
