Located in a private concession in Akagera National Park, Magashi Peninsula Camp is situated directly in the unspoiled Akagera National Park—Rwanda's only sanctuary for savanna wildlife. Directly on the shores of Lake Rwanyakazinga, the camp offers spectacular views of sparkling waters and the Mutumba Mountains. The few villas and suites combine modern luxury, privacy, and cultural inspiration with a consistently sustainable philosophy. Guests not only experience incomparable safaris here, but also become part of a unique conservation story.
The Wilderness Magashi Peninsula offers guests a wide range of authentic safari experiences. On game drives in open off-road vehicles – even at night with special spotlights – you can observe elephants, lions, buffalos, and rare antelopes. From the water, luxurious pontoons and a swamp cruiser offer unforgettable excursions, picnic lunches, and sundowners with views of hippos and crocodiles. Bird watching is also a wonderful way to explore nature. Those who wish can try their hand at catch-and-release fishing or experience the magic of Africa from their own star bed under the open starry sky.
Magashi Peninsula comprises one villa and two exclusive suites, each with a private plunge pool, spacious terraces, and panoramic views of Lake Rwanyakazinga and the Mutumba Mountains. The design combines modern elegance with natural materials and cultural accents from Rwanda, allowing the accommodations to blend harmoniously into the landscape. Skybeds invite guests to spend the night under the open sky, while air-conditioned lounges and thoughtful details ensure maximum comfort. The villa offers two bedrooms, a spacious living and dining area, a kitchen, and a flexible additional room. Thanks to its secluded location, guests can observe elephants, buffalos, and hippos at close range – a luxurious, nature-oriented experience.
The cuisine at Magashi Camp is inspired by Rwanda's culinary diversity and focuses on local, seasonal produce. Guests enjoy healthy, sustainable dishes – from the famous "Rolex" breakfast wrap to a traditional Kugisha dinner accompanied by stories and songs. Whether it's a picnic in the bush, dinner on the terrace, or private dining experiences, each meal is individually designed and reflects the culture and nature of the surroundings. The culinary concept combines authenticity with modern standards.
Like a hidden gem, Wilderness Magashi Peninsula nestles on the shores of Lake Rwanyakazinga. Nestled in a private concession of Akagera National Park, this safari camp creates a unique combination of luxury and conservation. A retreat has been created here that preserves the original beauty of Rwanda's savannah and lake landscape while offering the highest level of comfort. The elevated construction on stilts and the light-flooded interiors of the villa and suites convey the feeling of being in the middle of nature – without sacrificing modern amenities.
