Only Six on Safari Hluhluwe-Imfolozi Park
This exclusive only 6 safari will predominantly travel to the South of the park the Imfolozi Park. This is due to the fact that the south is a lot larger in size (More Wildlife), less congested especially in the high season, and also less dense (bush-wise) in certain areas, making for better sightings of wildlife.
The Imfolozi Park is also rich in history of days when King Shaka himself made use of this area as his personal hunting grounds and when KZN Ezemvelo KZN saved the Rhinos from near extinction in the 1960s. Ironically techniques developed in Game Capture in the 60' are still being used to date.
The park covers an area of 96000 hectares, tarred roads and gravel roads. Hides and lookouts make for some amazing stops to not only enjoy the wildlife but also the incredible silence.
