Phinda Private Game Reserve, home of the African Big Five and consisting of six lodges, is a great safari destination within the KwaZulu-Natal province.

The Game Reserve is famous for its high concentration of rock art as the reserve boasts 250 San rock art paintings.

Bongani's chalets and suites are a subtle blend of timber and thatch, spaciously spread out across an impressive mountain ridge. The game lodge works according to the following principle: Care of the Land, Care of the Wildlife, Care of the People.
