[...] Muzi Pans with Yellow Fever trees on the opposite bank. After work last week we drove there to go paddling and try and see hippos (relatively) close up. We heard them in the reeds. We did not venture into the reeds to see them close up… (http://toursandtales.com/muzi-pan-zulu-canoeing-hippos) [...]

Hi all, so…. now we’ve managed to get two more members of the family to Muzi Pan – Kevin and Ingrid – we were there on Moday, 5th January 2009 – what a wonderful place – we were too late to organise paddling, but we walked and drove a long way up the pan, saw wonderful birds, including Glossy Ibis and many others, which we do not see every day at home – in the KZN Midlands. We’ll be back – the hippos were great too! Very friendly local people – it was lovely to be able to observe all the early evening domestic activities – cattle being herded home, families collecting water, children playing in the setting sun and men throwing in a line to catch supper, teenagers – being teenagers, moving around in relaxed groups – all of them were friendly and unhurried.

Hi Stella, we also thoroughly enjoyed our experience and would love to do it again. Our canoeing trip was organisated by Rob Cuthbertson during our stay at Leopard Walk Lodge(http://www.leopardwalklodge.co.za/). Perhaps you can contact him directly? I’ll also forward this message to them. Enjoy your stay in False Bay

I am so excited to find this information on Muzi pan – kevin, Ingrid and I will be in False Bay Park from 2- 6 January – we would love to visit Muzi pan – how do we go about that? We would like to be guided by Themba – canoeing and a walk. I did this with our daughter Ingrid in 2003 and loved the experience – have tried to !find” Muszi pan again ever since. last time we managed to contact a guide through Roland Vorwerk. How do we get there and how do we book through Themba or you?
Many thanks for sharing ths lovely expetience!
Regards, Stella
