Big 5 private game Programme - South Africa

Product Details

Programme Highlights
Join conservation efforts on a malaria-free, "Big 5" nature reserve. Your hands-on experience will include everything from the rugged to the social.

You’ll assist with the identification of animals, game and flora monitoring, caring for elephants and lions in the sanctuary and poaching prevention. You will also need to pitch in and do general maintenance and community work such as child care and teaching.

And, last but not least, you will occasionally assist with the tourism aspect of the projects and act as host and waiter to the lodge’s guests.

Where Will I Live ?
Eastern cape Province, South Africa
Share a house in the historical village of Sidbury, not far from the lodge. Breakfast, lunch and dinner provided.

Qualifications and Minimum Skills
No particular skills required - just enthusiasm!

What can I do in my spare time?
The village was built in 1830 and the surrounding area is awash with adventure opportunities and old battlefields. Adrenaline junkies can travel to the coast to surf or kite board.

If you are into forests a trip to the picturesque Hogsback Village nestled in the Amatola Mountains is a must. Huge indigenous forests provide wonderful hikes, scenic waterfalls and snow in winter.
