You Should Know

Magashi Camp welcomes children aged six and older. Families with children between six and twelve years must reserve a private vehicle. This requires booking at least three tents, as vehicles are limited.

The Details

Located in Akagera National Park's private concession, Magashi Camp is home to hippos, lions, black rhinos, leopards, crocodiles, and a vast array of birdlife.

Six elegant, tented suites sit along the shores of Lake Rwanyakazinga. The central area features a plush lounge, bar, dining space, swimming pool, and a large viewing deck with a warm firepit. The design and décor celebrate Rwanda’s cultural heritage.

Accommodation

Magashi’s eight spacious tented suites, nestled along Lake Rwanyakazinga's shoreline, offer a serene retreat in a stunning natural setting. These tents provide an intimate and immersive safari experience, with views of breathtaking landscapes.

Dining

Meals at Magashi focus on sustainable, locally inspired dishes. The menu highlights Rwanda’s traditional ingredients and fresh, local produce, including the signature "Rolex" breakfast wrap and a Kugisha dinner, served alongside Rwandan tales and music.

Experiences

With 11 unique habitats, Akagera National Park is a game-viewing paradise. The open plains support a thriving lion population. Elephants and hippos linger in the lakes and swamps, while Masai giraffes roam the woodlands.

A variety of safari activities await, including thrilling boat safaris with elevated seating for exceptional views and guided game drives, where guests can aid conservation efforts by identifying lions and leopards. Evenings conclude with a traditional Kugisha supper around a campfire, sharing stories and songs under the stars.
