About Program
Mapesu Private Game Reserve’s Volunteer Programme is an enriching and unforgettable experience for people that truly desire an up-close and personal experience in the world of conservation.
Conservation is more than just a tourist safari. It is getting one’s hands dirty protecting the diverse flora and fauna of the region, absorbing all the senses of what this region has to offer with its sights, sounds and smells; its being enriched by the history of the past and knowing that one can make a tremendous difference for the future by learning and protecting the vast and irreplaceable ecosystem.
