3 Day Swaziland Fly-In Safari
Day 01
Today you will fly Johannesburg to Manzini where you will be met and transferred to Mkhaya Game Reserve for (2) nights on a fully inclusive basis.
Privately owned and run, this upmarket reserve is the gem of Swaziland's heritage. Accommodation in unforgettable style is offered in classic, spacious safari tents. Fully furnished, with or without en suite facilities and individually placed in cool riverine forest, these units are likely to bring visitors closer to nature than ever before. "Closer to Nature" is the main focus of this reserve and its no-nonsense approach to providing the genuine feeling of Africa, is becoming ever more popular with people sick of over commercialisation and loss of real Africa. All travel within the reserve is by open landrover or on foot with bush-hardened Swazi rangers. Wildlife is abundant and even with short visits our highly skilled trackers get visitors closer to white rhino, elephant, hippo, giraffe, buffalo, crocodile, roan, sable and various other animals and birds than people are ever likely to get elsewhere. However, without doubt, the feature of Mkhaya is the opportunity to see black rhino in the wild. Nowhere else in Africa does a visitor have as good a chance of photographing this endangered animal. People also have the opportunity to get closer to each other. With camp capacity limited to low numbers and with all meals cooked over a central log fire in traditional Swazi style, visitors often talk into the early hours of the morning. Your Swazi hosts are always willing to share their experiences and culture and with little encouragement will demonstrate the Sibhaca dancing and ingrained musical talent.
Day 02
Today will include game tracking by open landrover, guided walks, waterhole stake-outs, sundowners and a night drive by spotlight. This game reserve is well-known for its international programmes to protect the Black Rhino from extinction. After dinner we will be entertained with traditional Sibhaca Dancing. (Depending on staff availability)
Day 03
After a memorable two nights in the most exclusive game reserve in Swaziland, you will be transferred to Manzini Airport for your flight back to Johannesburg.
