Produced by Condé Nast Traveler in partnership with wildernessdestinations.com | On the threshold of a new chapter, New York–based creative couple Max Bartick and Ali Kornhauser journey to wildernessdestinations.com/africa/tours/exclusive-rwanda in search of something deeper: connection, clarity, and a moment to pause. From the mist-covered slopes of Wilderness Bisate Reserve—where they trek to see mountain gorillas—to the sweeping plains of Wilderness Magashi Peninsula, where elephants, lions, and hippos move freely across the plains, their safari unfolds as both an adventure and a quiet transformation. Along the way, they reconnect—with nature and each other—- and look towards what lies ahead.
