HANDCRAFTED EXPERIENTIAL SAFARIS

Trust us to find you the rarest animals, the most spectacular wildlife events, the remotest landscapes and deeply meaningful cultural encounters!

Why visit Klaserie Private Nature Reserve?

Klaserie offers Big 5 safari encounters and a low tourism footprint. Strict access control (no day visitors are permitted) results in lower visitor numbers compared to the neighbouring Kruger National Park. Off-road driving (by experienced guides), night drives, and bush walks guarantee fantastic wildlife encounters. The number of vehicles at wildlife sightings is restricted to ensure an exclusive safari experience.

Big Five and other wildlife

The Big Five (lion, leopard, rhino, buffalo and elephant) are regularly seen during game drives, as are wild dog, cheetah and hyena. Klaserie also has good populations of other species, such as giraffe, zebra, wildebeest, impala, and waterbuck. Meanwhile, smaller creatures, including genet, mongoose, pangolin, and aardvark, are also observed.

The Klaserie bushveld

Klaserie 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 60,080 ha Klaserie features rocky ridges and valleys in the north and undulating deciduous woodland further south, interspersed with thick riverine forest along the seasonal riverbanks, making it perfect safari country.

Excellent bird watching

Klaserie hosts over 360 bird species, including southern ground-hornbill, brown-headed parrot, martial eagle, orange-breasted bushshrike, scarlet-chested sunbird and five vulture species.

Why Klaserie is a responsible safari choice

Your Africa Geographic safari to Klaserie contributes directly to the conservation of the park to the benefit of local people because:

  • We donate a portion of every safari sold to selected conservation efforts at ground level.

  • Your safari supports our conservation publishing efforts, which educate the world about Klaserie and other threatened ecosystems.

  • Our chosen lodges support local community initiatives, ensuring that tourism benefits the nearby villages directly. They also adhere to strict environmental practices, such as limited vehicle numbers and sustainable camp operations, which help protect the ecosystem.

African safari

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?
