Excursion Mayoni big five safari game tour at Richards Bay
Cruise line: SilverseaDifficulty:
Embark on an awe-inspiring safari adventure as we journey to Manyoni Private Game Reserve, a sprawling expanse of 23,000 hectares nestled in the heart of Kwazulu-Natal. Established in 2004 through the visionary decision of 17 dedicated landowners, Manyoni stands as one of the largest privately-owned reserves in the region. A pivotal moment in conservation history, these landowners dismantled their fences to create a seamless and expansive protected area for local wildlife.
Experience the significance of Manyoni firsthand as we delve into its rich conservation legacy. Chosen as a release site for the WWF Black Rhino Range Expansion Project, Manyoni took a bold step towards preserving endangered species. Witness the fruits of this endeavor as we encounter the majestic black rhinos roaming freely in their natural habitat.
Pause for a picturesque picnic on the reserve, surrounded by the sights and sounds of the African bush, before setting out for an afternoon game drive in search of more wildlife wonders.
