Big Five safaris in a malaria-free wilderness.

Many travellers wish to spot all of these five animals (and only shoot with a camera!) on their safaris and not every safari destination has all five creatures in the same place. We are keen conservationists and don't advocate hunting with anything other than cameras. An African safari is not however just about the big five species - there are so many other wonderful creatures to see, a range of habitats and landscapes to travel through, stunning places to stay and interesting cultural and historical encounters to be had. Hopefully you will also encounter some of Nambiti's 40+ other species of game including cheetah, leopard, giraffe, hippo, hyena, impala, eland and zebra plus an array of other creatures and plants. The Reserve’s 22,000 acres has excellent biodiversity; including savannah, thornveld, riverine bush, acacia trees and extensive grasslands that mirror the plains of central Africa.

Game drives are offered into the late evening and nightfall and game viewing under a canopy of African stars is an incredible experience. The Sunday River offers excellent Yellowtail fishing and there are a number of dams within the reserve that are well-stocked with various fish species. The abundance of natural water, perennial rivers and beautiful waterfalls on the Sundays River, make Nambiti a unique sanctuary attracting several rare bird species and an enviable array of raptors and vultures.
