If you have ever wondered how on earth you could take a group of 240 delegates into the wilds of Africa on a genuine 100% original safari under canvass, then read a little further.

A leading international insurance company recently spent a few days on safari with Peter Hayward in the heart of the acclaimed PILANESBERG big 5 GAME RESERVE just 2 hours north west of Johannesburg.

Well over 400 tons of equipment made up of over 40,000 items were brought in to build this tented camp facility - just 3 days prior to the guests arrival.

What with rhino using their well worm paths past the camp site and daily visitations from lion, giraffe and elephant, this had to be one of the grandest safari camps ever built in big 5 territory.

"The Pilanesberg remains one of our most ideal locations with its close proximity, abundant wildlife, outstanding parks board management and an incredible choice of activities - from elephant back safaris, to hot air ballooning, guided walks and game drives to world class golf and quad biking. Hayward's takes the experience into another dynamic when one comes to realise the absolute privilege of being the only safari encamped within a wilderness region spanning well over 75'000 acres,"  said Peter Hayward.

Mr. Hayward then went on to state, "Ideally groups should consider a full 3 night 4 day safari package with us as one of our international clients is doing for early next year. Their safari goes well beyond the wildlife experience. Apart from the substantial financial support they are bringing to Pilanesberg National Park, they are taken the lead and involving their 240 delegates in a mammoth community project in the small town of Ledig bordering the park where they will be establishing self sustaining vegetable gardens and building class rooms together with the children for the children! This is the type of 'new age safari' Hayward's is pioneering," he said.

Hayward's will be setting up their 240 bed facility over the end November / early December Nedbank Golf Challenge program and again in January 2006 as an ideal safari conference facility where companies can work hard and play hard - after all January is that time where strategic planning and team motivational is of the utmost importance.
