Rhino Africa is a company dedicated to the pursuit of showcasing the brilliance of Africa, its people, its landscapes and its wildlife, and is the name behind Silvan Safari Lodge. With over a decade of experience in luxury safari travel in Africa, Rhino Africa knows the safari industry, and have called on all their expertise to create a safari experience unlike anything ever seen before.

On the banks of the Manyeleti, in the heart of the Sabi Sand Private Game Reserve is a place seemingly untouched by man and time. A space entwined in the rhythm of the bush, the ebbs and flows of nature and engulfed by a forest of ancient trees. The indigenous leadwood and jackalberry trees are the true masters of this place, the ethereal rulers of the land and, quite simply, the entire inspiration behind Silvan Safari.

The essence of Silvan is found within these majestic trees. They are eternal, alluring and immensely powerful with an antiquated aura connecting the past to the present. For millennia communities around the world have given enormous value to their life connection with these trees. This is often expressed in different ways, but fundamentally always depicts the tree as the base force for all life, symbolically represented by the Tree of Life, the inspiration behind our logo.

The lodge has 5 extraordinary suites, and one family unit, providing an intimate, enchanting setting for guests to immerse themselves in this ultimate bush paradise. Inspired by the leadwood forest surrounding the lodge, the contemporary, modern architecture is slick, bold and elegantly unique.

Silvan Safari Lodge is due to start receiving guests in December 2017, and as such, we are currently recruiting an elite team destined to redefine luxury safari in Africa. Find all details about the exciting opportunities in the links below:

About the author 

Melanie Du Toit

Jozi-born, Knysna local, and recovering yachtie, Melanie decided that she missed being land-based after 18 months sailing the seas. Now that she lives in the most beautiful city in Africa (she is adamant about this fact), you will find her trying out new things around Cape Town, dreaming about her next holiday, and using Wikipedia to enhance her skills as an encyclopaedia of useless information.
