Conservation Activities | Included & Additional Cost

Guests can take part in conservation work rather than only observe it. Options include rhino dehorning with reserve management, wildlife vets and pilots; Elephants Alive darting and collaring; and joining Grant Beverley of the EWT Wild Dog Project in the field to locate packs and fit collars. Guests can also help monitor nests for the APNR Ground-Hornbill Project, run by the FitzPatrick Institute for over 20 years. A helicopter patrol flight covers the reserve and the Blyde River canyon. These activities carry an additional cost. The Tango K9 counter-poaching dog demonstration is included. All of it is booked in advance and subject to availability, so agents should raise it when the itinerary is first drafted.
