About This Tour
Join us on an unforgettable wildlife safari starting at the Leadwood entrance of the Rietspruit Nature Reserve. This private reserve boasts the same diverse animals found in Kruger National Park, offering the added benefit of a more intimate safari experience. During our journey, we'll stop at one of the various scenic viewpoints for a coffee/tea break with a traditional rusk in hand. We'll proceed to the Blyde River Canyon Nature Reserve which is just a 10-minute drive away. Brace yourself for the awe-inspiring vistas of the canyon, where we'll keep a keen eye out for the elusive Samango monkey and Leopard. As we make our way to the boat, bird enthusiasts may be treated to delightful sightings like the stunning Narina Trogon. The guided pontoon will transport us to the very heart of the canyon with it's breathtaking views such as the iconic Gorilla Face, Tufa Waterfall, and enchanting encounters with hippos & crocodiles. This is one of those "Must Do" trips when in Hoedspruit!
