Phinda is famous for its excellent sightings of the elusive but stunning cheetah as well as its work in rhino conservation. Often referred to as ‘Seven Worlds of Wonder’ Phinda benefits from seven distinct ecosystems making it a diverse and stunning reserve. In excess of 400 bird species have been recorded at Phinda, so not only if it a perfect place for a Big 5 safari but also for the avid birders amongst us.

Facilities
Staying at Zuka means you get your very own ranger and vehicle so every game drive is a very personal experience. A dedicated chef is on hand to whip up delicious temptations, but should you prefer you are very welcome to join in the cooking experience or simply sit back and watch the master in action!
Should the heat of the day prove too much take a dip in the sparkling lodge swimming pool or maybe just sip on a refreshing drink while watching the wildlife quench their thirst at Zuka’s private watering hole.
