Tala Game Reserve Half-Day Safari
Malaria-Free Wildlife Experience Near Durban
About This Tour
Escape the city for a morning of wildlife wonder at Tala Game Reserve, a malaria-free private game reserve nestled in the rolling hills of KwaZulu-Natal, just 65km from Durban. This half-day safari is perfect for travellers with limited time who still want an authentic African wildlife experience.
Board an open-top safari vehicle and traverse 3,000 hectares of pristine African bushveld. Your experienced ranger tracks rhino, giraffe, zebra, wildebeest, hippo, and a rich diversity of antelope species. Tala is also a birder's paradise, with over 380 recorded bird species including fish eagles, crowned cranes, and rare woodland species.
The reserve's open grassland landscape provides excellent visibility for wildlife photography. After the game drive, enjoy a complimentary tea and coffee at the lodge with views over the dam.
