DINOKENG, GAUTENG

MONGENA PRIVATE GAME RESERVE

Big Five, malaria-free bush stays, conferences and celebrations, just 35km from Pretoria.

BIG FIVE SAFARI ON GAUTENG'S DOORSTEP

Mongena Private Game Reserve lies in the malaria-free northern part of the 18,000-hectare Dinokeng Game Reserve. It's about 40 minutes from Pretoria and an hour from OR Tambo by tar road, and it also has its own private airstrip. The Big Five roam free across an 8,000-hectare private concession. Choose from a main lodge, a tented camp, a private barnhouse and a trails camp. Each pairs real safari with relaxed dining, so Mongena works for everything from a strategy session to a wedding or a weekend away.
