Manyeleti Game Reserve is positioned between the Sabi Sand and the Timbavati reserves thus offering a similar game experience. Importantly there are no fences between these three private reserves and the Kruger National Park itself, so the animals are free to move between them.
Situated on the edge of the Kruger National Park, and sandwiched between the unfenced Sabi Sands and Timbavati reserves, Manyeleti is a secluded gem. It offers excellent Big Five game viewing, low vehicle density, experienced guides and only three luxurious lodges and tented camps. This was once the only reserve in the country that welcomed people of colour. Manyeleti’s lack of development during the apartheid era resulted in a pristine tract of wilderness, reminiscent of the African bush before the advent of mass ecotourism. Visitors experience an off-the-beaten-track safari and gain fascinating insight into the culture of the local Mnisi tribe, who manage the park.
Must see: Manyeleti means ‘Place of Stars’ in the local Shangaan language and it’s easy to see why. Spend an evening here feasting your eyes on the incandescent African night sky.

Safari booked. SA here I come.
I have never been to SA before, so naturally I was a bit apprehensive about booking a safari on my own. I turned to safari.com for help and I'm so glad I did. Keith was so helpful, patient and saved me money! That's a win, win, win. I would recommend safari.com to anyone planning their trip and their experiences in SA.

I was in need of help quickly to book a place to stay for 6 people. I wasn’t sure if I should drive or fly and Pascal helped me so quickly and was so kind and patient. He texted with me, called me and was wonderful to work with. He provided me with 2 quotes and helped me through the booking process. Looking forward to our trip!

Great customer service
Heleen went out of her way to find us accommodation. We left our planning way to late and were looking at the busiest time of year yet she worked her magic.
