What an amazing experience! From the moment David (our driver to/from the Manyoni Private Game Reserve), picked me up at 5am the entire experience was stellar and beyond reproach. David, a consummate professional, gentleman and conversationalist who provided additional colour regarding the areas we traveled through on our way to the safari. It was fascinating to learn about the various regions and local agriculture.
Then, we were delivered to Ivor who was our safari guide at the Manyoni Private Game Reserve and he too was incredibly personable, knowledgable, relaxed, and his role of safari guide was only surpassed by his love for the land, its natural inhabitants, his role in conservation and supporting wildlife for generations to come. Ivor's persistence paid-off as we were able to get up close to lions, cheetahs buffalo, many antelope including Kudu, giraffe and rhino. The entire day was a thoughtful and educational experience and I highly recommend.
