Manyeleti Game Reserve Safari Trips & Tours

Meaning the ‘place of the stars’ in the local Shangaan language, Manyeleti encapsulates the wide open skies and spectacular wilderness of the Kruger, while remaining relatively undiscovered. Wedged between the more famous Timbavati and Sabi Sands reserves, and sharing an entirely fenceless border with the Kruger National Park, the plains game viewing is superb as well as the birdlife – there are over 450 species including African grey hornbills, southern carmine bee-eaters and the coveted kori bustard. The reserve is also known for its sightings of African-painted dogs and prides of lions, which are well-known by the guides. With less than 10 properties across 23,000 hectares, safaris in Manyeleti are intimate and authentic and guides take the time to explore the landscape in the finest detail on game drives and bush walks.
