ACTIVITIES

The  day typically begins with an early morning game drive, in search of Africa's exciting fauna, followed by a sumptuous breakfast on the deck.  You can then go on a ranger-guided walk through the bush and learn about game tracks  and all of the little creatures.  Discover how the local people use trees to make toothbrushes and toothpaste, tea and coffee, poultices, etc. Alternatively relax on a cosy leather couch, enjoying the animals at the water,  and the ever present bird life in one of the top birding areas in South Africa.

After a light lunch, sit by the pool on a comfortable lounger, or relax in the lounge with a selection of wildlife books and videos.

 
Then head out for the evening game drive in an open Land Rover, where you will stop for sundowners with unparalleled views, deep in the Ezulwini BushWhite Rhinoceros
   

A wine tasting in our amazing cellar is followed by a Boma barbeque

- when the sky is brilliant with stars and the night time sounds of wild Africa fill the air.
