Shamwari Private Game Reserve

Shamwari, meaning “friend” in the local Shona language, is one of Africa’s premier Big Five safari destinations, spanning over 25,000 hectares.

This malaria free private game reserve encompasses five distinct ecosystems, supporting a rich diversity of plant, bird, and animal species.

Guests can choose from six luxurious lodges, each offering its own unique style and five-star hospitality. For the adventurous spirit, the Explorer Camp provides an immersive experience in the heart of the bush. From romantic retreats to family escapes, there’s a perfect setting for every kind of traveller.
Additional experiences such as guided bush walks, spa treatments, river cruises and stargazing are available upon request.

Guests are invited to explore the Wildlife Rehabilitation Centre, Born Free Big Cat Sanctuaries, and the continent’s only vulture conservation program, Vulpro@Shamwari. By staying at Shamwari Private Game Reserve, guests play an integral part in conservation by helping support the reserve’s ongoing efforts to restore and protect the natural environment.
