Not the prettiest face in the animal kingdom, perhaps. But vultures are some of its most important clean-up crew.

Often portrayed as villains in popular culture, these remarkable birds play a vital role in keeping ecosystems healthy by efficiently removing carcasses and helping to limit the spread of disease.

So today, on Vulture Awareness Day, we're giving these often misunderstood birds the recognition they deserve.

Not so ugly after all. 🦅

There's something wonderful about going back to nature, to sitting around the fire in the evenings, to sitting quietly while elephants cross the road, to slowing down enough to notice what's around you.

We hope that is Garonga's gift to you during your visit.

Welcome, September. 🌿

Spring has arrived in Greater Makalali, bringing warmer, longer days. Mornings are clear and crisp, but temperatures rise swiftly through the day, making for wonderful time out in the bush.

September is an excellent time for game viewing, with wildlife concentrated around water sources while the landscape begins to transform with the changing season.

Joining us this month? Pack light, breathable layers for the warmer days, a light jacket for early morning game drives, comfortable walking shoes, sun protection and your binoculars.

We are absolutely thrilled to debut the brand-new INEOS Grenadier KAVANGO Safari Game Drive vehicles. Fittingly, their very first journey took out two special guests from Scott Dunn UK—our biggest supplier of safari guests. It was an honour to host our UK tour operator partners for this milestone moment. Here’s to pioneering new ways to experience the bush in ultimate comfort and style. Welcome to the future of game viewing at Garonga! 🥂

Cosy corners, crackling fires and the perfect ending to a day in the bush.

After a crisp winter game drive, there's nothing quite like returning to Garonga to warm up beside the fire with a drink in hand and stories from the day's sightings.

A sighting few people will ever experience, and one our guests will never forget.

A leopard and a pangolin in a single sighting. Two of Africa's most remarkable animals, one truly extraordinary encounter.

A new chapter in safari has arrived.

Garonga has taken delivery of three new INEOS Grenadier Quartermaster game-drive vehicles, specially converted for safari and designed to offer an intimate, comfortable way to explore the 27,000-hectare Greater Makalali Private Nature Reserve.

With a maximum of six guests per vehicle, every seat offers excellent visibility and space to take in the wilderness around you.

A first for Garonga, and potentially a first for Southern Africa. We can't wait to get them out into the bush!

When the sun goes down, the bush reveals a different side of itself.

As your afternoon game drive winds its way back to camp, the spotlight comes out and a whole new world begins to stir. This is when many predators become active, while elusive nocturnal creatures - from bush babies and civets to genets and porcupines - emerge under the cover of darkness.

August had other plans. 🌧️

Rain at this time of year is almost unheard of, but The Greater Makalali Private Nature Reserve was treated to a wonderfully unseasonal downpour over the last few days.

A rare winter surprise and a welcome drink for the bush. Nature, as always, keeps us guessing.
