Blyde Canyon Safaris, together with the Moletele community, offer scenic boat trips on the Blyde Dam. This is your opportunity to see the famous Three Rondawels and the Blyde River Canyon from the angle it’s supposed to be seen: while you’re on the water, at the base of the towering mountains that form these breathtaking sights. Tick off those last couple of birds that have been eluding your bird list and enjoy seeing the hippo’s and crocodiles that make this dam their home.
We are passionate about nature and preserving the few untouched pieces that remain in South Africa. We aim to offer everyone the opportunity to experience the beauty that the Lowveld has to offer. We run several activities and excursions and through our sister company, Blyde Adventure Camp, adventure and leadership camps for large groups.
We offer daily trips at 9am, 11am, 1pm and 3pm. Join one of our trips or book the entire boat for yourself. Use our friendly online booking system on this website, or contact our office to make your booking.

Blyde Canyon Boat Cruise
What a great way to experience this part of our beautiful country. Our guide was knowledge about the area, imparting alot of interesting facts on the local forna, flora, wildlife and history of the dam. He made a point of getting us close to shore when we spotted birds, Crocodile, hippopotamus and monkeys, making for some lovely photos. Highly recommend! - Lara
Love every second, would love to do it again - Veruschka
The experience was amazing and I recommend it to anyone visiting the canyon. - HUGUES
Very enjoyable. Bit pricey, for 1.5 hours, but we'll always have the memories. Nice crew and guide but the accent sometimes beat me! The highlights were swimming crocs, a large pod of hippos, a pair of rock pythons and beautiful scenery. Couple of suggestions - be very careful on the road in, which is very rough and full of potholes, plus bring warm clothing in winter - Mark
