Rhino Sands Safari Camp is a luxury tented retreat situated in Manyoni Private Game Reserve, a well-known Big Five safari destination in the beautiful KwaZulu Natal province. Built as an eco-friendly lodge, Rhino Sands Safari Camp is unique in that it offers guests an authentic safari experience in traditional East African-style canvas tents. Set within the lush riverine forest, the camp is designed to offer guests a way to reconnect with nature in a peaceful, fully-equipped setting.
With only four luxury tents, guests are guaranteed a personal and exclusive safari experience in spectacular surroundings, where private decks host to splash pools overlooking the bush await. Guests will also be treated to twice daily game drives, delicious homecooked meals, attentive service, nightly campfires under the stars, and sunset sundowners with a view. A stay at Rhino Sands Safari Camp will have you returning time and time again.
KwaZulu Natal is often considered a traveller's dream with its subtropical climate and natural environment that lends itself to adventure, and exceptional game-viewing. As one of South Africa's premier wildlife destinations, the Big Five Manyoni Game Reserve offers intimate access to world-class game-viewing, as well as an exciting Zululand wilderness rich in birdlife.
The guest experience at Rhino Sands Safari Camp revolves around two daily game drives that occur within the private reserve, and given the intimate nature of the destination, guest safari experiences and sightings will always be small and respectful – creating an unforgettable opportunity to experience Africa’s iconic wildlife.
Rhino Sands achieves near perfection in every aspect of a safari lodge. The guides are insightful and full of knowledge, the animals on the reserve are beautiful, the rooms are luxurious while also making you feel one with nature, the food is spectacular and the people are caring and compassionate.
