The Place of the Stars in the Heart of Greater Kruger
Meaning “Place of the Stars” in Shangaan, Manyeleti Private Game Reserve is a hidden gem of South Africa’s Greater Kruger National Park. Nestled between Sabi Sands, Timbavati, and Kruger Park, this 23,000-hectare reserve offers one of the most authentic and uncrowded Big Five safari experiences in Africa.
With Africa Moja Tours & Safaris, explore Manyeleti’s wild landscapes, stay in intimate lodges, and enjoy personalized safaris where luxury meets cultural authenticity.
Manyeleti is a community-owned reserve, co-managed by the Mnisi Tribe, offering visitors not just exceptional wildlife viewing, but also a deep connection to local heritage.
The reserve shares unfenced borders with Kruger National Park, allowing animals to move freely across the ecosystem — making it a true extension of Kruger’s wilderness without the crowds.
Wildlife thrives here: the Big Five (lion, leopard, elephant, rhino, buffalo) roam in abundance, alongside cheetahs, giraffes, zebras, wild dogs, and over 300 bird species.
What sets Manyeleti apart is its low vehicle density, ensuring guests experience private, exclusive encounters with nature — ideal for families, couples, or photographers seeking quiet immersion in the wild.
