Rhino Sands Safari Camp
Day 1 - 4
Rhino Sands Safari Camp is a five-star eco-friendly tented safari camp located in Manyoni Private Game Reserve. With an ethos of connection, this intimate owner-run camp provides an exceptional level of customer service and a custom-tailored safari experience. The camp was designed and built with minimal disruption to the ecosystem to complement rather than dominate the environment. The camp is made entirely of canvas tents set upon wooden decks and decorated in a classical safari style. Each of Rhino Sands’ four luxury tented suites are tucked away in the riverine forest, located along the edge of a peninsula allowing spectacular views of the Msunduze riverbed.

After returning to the lodge for a delectable hot breakfast, you’ll have time to relax and unwind, surrounded by serene African wilderness. Lounge at the pool, delve into a captivating book, have a blissful nap, or simply soak up the sights, sounds and scents of nature.
Afternoon tea is served before your next game drive, departing around 3:30 - 4:30 pm, depending on the time of year. Dinner is served before you settle in for the night to the symphony of the wild.

South Africa – KwaZulu-Natal Bush and Beach
There are only positive things to say about our trip to Rhino lodge and St Lucia: the accommodation was top quality, great food, a very well organised trip and the staff were very helpful.
We saw rhinos, some lions, wild dogs, plenty of different antelope. Plus giraffes, which we got to walk amongst in the veld.
Overall, it was a very special experience for my companions and myself.

Nambiti Game Reserve, South Africa
This was an amazing trip that we simply would not have found had it not been for Indigo Safaris. From the initial enquiry right through to booking and post trip, they were a delight to deal with. Wow! What a place. Just three hours from Durban, this was an amazing safari. It was just the perfect blend of super organised, yet relaxed, great animal watching (but very much still wild); lovely food (and plenty of it). And the ambience was one of enjoyment in a premium setting. not luxury and stand-offish. Everything just worked, from 1pm arrival to 10am leaving three days later, we were looked after by real people doing a great job.
SOUTH AFRICA – SABI SAND SAFARI & GARDEN ROUTE SELF-DRIVE ADVENTURE
My husband and I travelled to South Africa recently and was looking for someone with hands on experience to help with organising/booking our trip. We came across Indigo Safaris and specifically dealt with Ines who was amazing. They run a very professional efficient business, replying within 24 hrs (even though we are in Australia and they Seychelles). All our bookings etc were fantastic and very much to our liking everything ran very smoothly and would not hesitate in using Indigo Safaris (Ines) again and highly recommend anyone else to use them.
South Africa – Cape Town, Greater Kruger Honeymoon
Working with Ines at Indigo Safaris was an absolute dream! From start to finish, the entire planning process was seamless, stress-free, and truly exciting. This was our first time using a travel agent or tour operator, and we were a bit skeptical at first—but Ines quickly put all our worries to rest. Her flexibility, attention to detail, and genuine care turned our South African honeymoon dreams into reality. Plus she was quick to respond!
She worked within our budget, tailored everything to our preferences, and made planning our Cape Town + Safari adventure so effortless and fun. Every moment of the trip exceeded our expectations—we seriously can’t stop raving about it!
We’ve already started recommending Indigo Safaris to friends and family who are considering a safari. If you’re on the fence—just do it. Booking with Ines was hands-down one of the best decisions we made for our honeymoon. We’re beyond grateful!!!

Manyeleti Game Reserve perfect stay
We stayed at the Honeyguide Mantobeni Camp in the Manyeleti Game Reserve which boarders without a fence to Kruger National Park. The location, camp and accommodations were superb. Michele, our Safari consultant did an outstanding job on understanding what we wanted. Her service and our Safari were perfect 10's!!
