safari experts, since 1991
Trust us to find you the rarest animals, the most spectacular wildlife events, the remotest landscapes and deeply meaningful cultural encounters!
The Big 5 Balule Private Nature Reserve is one of several private game reserves making up the Greater Kruger, which shares an unfenced boundary with the Kruger National Park.
The 55,000 ha Balule features rocky ridges and valleys in the north - interspersed with thick riverine forest along the Olifants River banks - and undulating deciduous woodland further south - perfect safari country.
You will find a variety of camps and lodges on offer in Balule - from small rondavels to traditional thatched lodges and tented camps. Relatively high prices and strict access control results in low visitor numbers compared to the neighbouring Kruger National Park, and off-road driving (by experienced guides), night drives and bush walks guarantee fantastic wildlife encounters

Why choose us to craft your safari?
Handcrafted experiential safaris since 1991.
Travel in Africa is about knowing when and where to go, and with whom. A few weeks too early/late or a few kilometres off course, and you could miss the greatest show on Earth. And wouldn’t that be a pity?
Trust & Safety
Guest payments go into a third-party TRUST ACCOUNT - protecting them in the unlikely event of a financial setback on our part. Also, we are members of SATSA who attest to our integrity, legal compliance and financial stability.
Make a difference
We donate a portion of the revenue from every safari sold to carefully selected conservation projects that make a significant difference at ground level.
YOUR safari choice does make a difference - thank you!
