Madikwe, for a while now, has been known as a prime safari location in South Africa. Not only is it located a mere 3-4 hours drive from Johannesburg, it falls within a malaria free zone which is ideal for a family safari holiday and it boasts the magnificent "makanyane" or what is more co...
I could never understand what the hype was about Sun City as I had never been there before and there have been so many different reviews about this resort and its accommodation on offer. I really liked this resort, as its very family friendly and activity driven but with that said, you need to...

I have recently been to the Eastern Cape for my first safari experience. If you haven’t had the opportunity to do a safari, then its hard to explain how awesome this experience actually is. From the sounds of the birds calling in the early hours of the morning to the sunsets over the Afr...

Gansbaai is just over 2 hours drive from Cape Town, midway between Cape Point and Cape Agulhas. The landscape is varied and nothing short of spectacular – think dramatic overhanging cliffs contrasted against white sandy beaches, and 1000-year old Milkwood forests. Although this ...
Konrad has just sent us another update following a new intake of volunteers at Shamwari. The volunteers were set straight to work as staff needed to track down a missing white rhino cow. Known as W12, the rhino had been missing for two weeks, and staff had become seriously concerned. ...
