Featured Destinations
Phinda Game Reserve
This private game reserve was formed along the Greater St Lucia Wetland Park - one of Africa's most ecologically diverse regions. Its variety renders it perfect for an escape of luxury and adventure. Catch a glimpse of Zulu life, past and present by visiting a traditional cultural village aligned to the Phinda reserve. In addition to vehicle game viewing where leopards are often seen, go rhino tracking on foot in this reserve. Watch turtles laying their eggs on a remote beach and dive amongst them on the coral reefs. Hippos inhabit ancient waterways and canoeing past them can be quite a thrill. Even horse riding is an option.
Madikwe Reserve
A protected area in South Africa, Madikwe Game Reserve opened in 1991 and was named after the Madikwe or Marico River. The Reserve used to be farm land however after extensive research, it was utilized as a national park to economically uplift the area. Currently, it is the fifth largest game reserve, a hidden gem and one of the best conservation areas in Africa.
Sabi Sands
Sabi Sands is located in the south western region of the Greater Kruger National Park. The game reserve is home to lions, leopards, rhinos, buffalo and elephants. You will find plenty of accommodations, safari tours and restaurants.
Marataba Private Reserve
Johannesburg
Johannesburg's contrasts are some of the most extreme in the world; poverty-stricken and overcrowded Alexandra is surrounded by some of the richest suburbs in South Africa, and downtown hundreds of homeless struggle to survive around the Stock Exchange. The contrast between suburb and township is mirrored nationwide, but is more extreme here because of the intense wealth of many of the suburbs, and the sheer size of the townships and their satellite squatter camps. Yet the city as a whole continues to suck in people and skills from all over the country, making it the financial, commercial and cultural powerhouse of South Africa.
