Set at the confluence of the Indian and Atlantic oceans and backed by the iconic Table Mountain, the bustling city of Cape Town presents an alluring combination of drawcards. Incredible powdery white beaches, highly acclaimed wine routes, and astonishingly beautiful mountain trails surround a cosmopolitan hub. This diverse metropolis is filled with superb shops and restaurants, extraordinary heritage monuments, a multitude of entertainment venues, and a spectacular, chic waterfront harbour. Highlights include the Zeitz Museum of Contemporary African Art; Table Mountain's jaw-dropping views; Boulders Beach, where penguins might swim right up to you in the warm Indian ocean waters; the Kirstenbosch Botanical Gardens, where you can walk along a treetop canopy among incredible native flora or watch an open-air concert at the base of the mountain; Robben Island, where visitors can see the cell where Nelson Mandela was imprisoned for 18 years; and many more.
Manyeleti Private Game Reserve shares unfenced borders with Kruger National Park, Timbavati Game Reserve and Sabi Sands Game Reserve, forming part of a vast wilderness where wildlife roams freely. The reserve is managed by the Mnisi people, who have lived on this land for generations. In Shangaan, the language most widely spoken in the region, Manyeleti means ‘Place of Stars’, a fitting name for an area renowned for its clear night skies and brilliant stargazing. Dry for much of the year, the reserve offers exceptional wildlife viewing as animals gather around waterholes. Aside from its outstanding safari experiences, Manyeleti also provides visitors with insight into the rich culture and traditions of the Mnisi community.
