Hluhluwe/St Lucia : Standard or tailor made safari packages

Explore the iconic Hluhluwe-iMfolozi "Big 5" Game Reserve or Isimangaliso Wetland Park in our guided open safari vehicles. Standard packages or tailor your own tour through this wildlife wonderland.
Based in Hluhluwe we invite you to join us for either a 3, 6 and 9 hour open safari vehicle game drive through the iconic "Big 5" Hluhluwe-iMfolozi Game Reserve. Travelling with experienced and knowledgeable guides, each one adding their own special brand of magic to an already incredibly diverse park. Once the royal hunting ground of great Zulu kings, this amazing "Big 5" reserve is renowned as the place that saved the rhino from extinction and is today literally the genetic home of all rhinos alive in the world today.

Alternatively, indulge yourself with a day visit to village of St Lucia, packed full of all sorts of activity options, restaurants, curio shops, open fruit & vegetable market and other stores. Experience daily life in the most naturally rich part of South Africa, as you move amongst the resident warthogs, mongoose, bushbuck, vervet monkeys..the odd hippo and occasional leopard. St Lucia is also the gateway to Isimangaliso Wetland Park - South Africa's first declared World Heritage as well as Ramsar Site. A day out on the pristine beaches at Cape Vidal while enjoying the possibility of spotting 4 of the Big 5 (no lions, sorry!) on the 30km drive through the park to the beach and back again!

Why not combine the 2 with one of our standard 2 to 4 night safari options? Hluhluwe and St Lucia are a mere 1 hours drive apart.
