Experiences

Community Conservation

Meet the communities working alongside the reserve — the people at the heart of the rewilding story.

The reserve's future is being written together with the communities on its boundary. Guided visits introduce the partnerships that make the rewilding possible — local employment, education support and shared stewardship of the Lunga's waters.

It is an honest, warm morning out, and the part of a stay many guests say reframed the whole safari.
