Intimate Kruger Safaris. Expertly Guided. Unforgettably Wild.
Explore South Africa’s iconic Kruger National Park with a passionate conservationist and birding expert.
Welcome to Mangovo Safaris — a boutique, owner-run safari experience based in Hazyview, Mpumalanga, just minutes from the Phabeni and Numbi Gates of the Kruger National Park.
We offer small-group and private open vehicle safaris led by a passionate guide and nature conservationist, Keegan Steward. With a focus on birding, wildlife education, and personalised service, we create authentic, immersive adventures for travellers who want more than just a game drive — they want a true connection to the bush.
From lions and leopards to elephants and rhinos, our Kruger safaris offer close encounters with Africa’s iconic wildlife in their natural habitat. Birders and nature lovers will also delight in spotting hundreds of species unique to the region.
At Mangovo, we believe safaris should be soulful, not rushed. That’s why we cap our vehicles at just 6 guests, ensuring every sighting is intimate and every question gets answered. Whether you’re chasing your next lifer, celebrating a special occasion, or simply craving quiet time in nature, we tailor the experience to suit you.
With the recent addition of a second safari vehicle, we can now accommodate larger groups of up to 18 guests across multiple vehicles — perfect for families, special interest groups, or tour operators. This expansion allows us to offer more flexibility while staying true to our small-group ethos and high standard of personal service.
