We spent serveral days of wonderful safari holiday in Phinda Game Reserve, South Africa. Phinda is situated in the eastern end of the country, almost on the coast, and may not be as well known (and as large) as the Kruger National Park and its neighboring game reserves. But the density of wildlife as well as the diversity of natural landscape is amazing. Although we were not lucky enough to see a leopard here (which we saw a lot in Sabi Sand where we had stayed just before moving to Phinda), the ample sighting of cheetahs and lions made our safari drives unforgettable. We also saw a black rhino which is much rarer than the white rhinos (the white ones are everywhere here).
Phinda Game Reserve is entirely managed by the company « & Beyond ». The lodges are wonderfully luxurious and comfortable, and the rangers are amazingly friendly, well experienced and professional.
Traveled in August 2016, and stayed in Phinda Forest Lodge and in Phinda Mountain Lodge.
See my video of Sabi Sand which we visited before Phinda.
