Kwa Madwala has pioneered low level aerial game viewing flights and is one of the few places in Africa to offer such an experience. Using microlight aircraft which carry one person at a time and which afford near 360 degree views, this is possibly the ultimate safari viewing experience! The thrill of staring out across the African bush and down at the wildlife is one to savour and remember forever. These are views not possible from the 4X4 vehicle and the smiles on guest faces when returning from a flight is testament to the joy and freedom one feels when gliding over the African bush.

We are fully licensed to operate commercial flights by the South African Civil Aviation Authority and carry appropriate insurance for these operations. Your ranger will transfer you from Manyatta Rock Camp to the Kwa Madwala airstrip where your pilot will meet you. Before take off your pilot will run through the flight safety and planned route. Helmets with intercom system allow passengers and pilot to talk throughout the flight.

Flights traverse the Kwa Madwala reserve and longer flights also take in the southern border of Kruger National Park. Although flights over Kruger are prohibited we are able to fly low along the Crocodile River for some truly breathtaking animal sightings.

This is the ultimate way to see the African bush with animal sightings which are simply not possible from a 4X4 vehicle.
