Known for offering guests one of the most deluxe game viewing experiences in the country, the game drives at Phinda Rock Lodge will give you the opportunity to not only view the ever-popular Big 5 but up to 415 bird species as well.

Apart from conventional game drives, you can also engage in bush walks, seasonal night turtle drives, tracking black rhinos on foot and participate in various conservation-orientated activities.
