3-Day Phinda Forest Lodge Tour 2026

Guests will be picked up from the airport or a pick-up point in Durban and surrounding areas. Duration of the drive is up to 3 - 4 hours. Alternatively, you can fly directly into the game reserve’s airstrip with Federal Air.

MoAfrika can assist with booking scheduled commercial flights to these airports.Upon arrival at Phinda Forest Lodge, you can enjoy some refreshments and relax until it is time for the afternoon game drive in an open safari vehicle, with sundowners and snacks along the drive.

Take along the complimentary pair of Swarovski Optik binoculars for the best views of elusive animals. Back at the lodge, a scrumptious starlit dinner awaits.

Rise early for hot drinks before you depart on early morning game drives, during which you can enjoy a bush cappuccino rendezvous between searches for animals. You can swop one or more of these game drives for a bush walk with an experienced guide and tracker.

Back at the lodge you can savour brunch before more relaxing until high tea in the afternoon. Your afternoon game drive will follow the pattern of the previous evening, rounded off by dinner again.

After an early rise and favourite hot drink, your last morning game drive will offer another opportunity of spotting some nocturnal animals still hunting around, another African sunrise and brunch back at the lodge, before it is time for your departure.

You can also swop the morning game drive for an exhilarating bush walk with your aptly qualified and expert guide.
