Discover the incredible diversity of Akagera National Park from Wilderness Magashi. This region is once again flourishing with apex predators and abundant wildlife. Spot lions, black and white rhinos, buffalo, and elephants traversing its rolling hills and sprawling savannas. Magashi offers an authentic East African safari experience, ideally paired with gorilla trekking in Rwanda.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.

Book your trip with Mel at Safari.com!
I had the most amazing experience with Mel helping to plan the trip of a lifetime for us to Africa! I had struggled to get responses or clear advice from several other travel agencies and was trying to piece together an itinerary myself. Mel was a breath of fresh air, promptly offering to help plan our entire trip. We had a full itinerary mapped out within a day, which we requested some tweaks to and these were easily accommodated. And Mel reassured us and put our concerns around safety and comfort at bay with her incredible first hand knowledge of the destinations.

Super star Mel
Mel our booking agent has been absolutely fantastic. Nothing has been too much trouble for her no matter what time of day & how big or small our enquiry has been. She was brilliant when having to relocate us from Kruger due to the flooding, it was seamless from our end.

Booking through Safari.com
Your travel consultant, Mel de Toit was excellent. She was prompt, efficient, friendly and helpful. The only confusing thing was the 2% merchant charge. It actually turned out to be a charge of close to 4% even when using ZAR currency as instructed when booking.
