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, 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.

It is a place of pure untouched beauty and is best seen and experienced from the water on our comfortable, 12 seater pontoon boat. You will be guided and accompanied by our experienced skipper who with a wealth of knowledge and passion for the canyon.
The Blyde Canyon cruise was nothing short of breathtaking. The sheer beauty of the landscape left me in awe, God did something extraordinary with that canyon. Towering cliffs, lush greenery, and the serene waters combined to create a scene that was both majestic and humbling. Every moment on the cruise was a reminder of nature's artistry, and I left feeling deeply moved by the magnificence of it all. It's an experience I would wholeheartedly recommend to anyone seeking to witness the wonder of creation in its purest form. - Kgothatso
We had a fantastic time on the Blyde Dam Boat Cruise!! Our Skipper and Tour Guide, Bhuti, was funny, insightful and answered all of our questions patiently and with a smile. Although we didn't see the African Finfoot (or Pel's Fishing Owl - we had to try! ?), we did get close to hippos, crocs and saw Trumpeter Hornbills, African Darter, White-breasted Cormorants and Striated Heron. It was an unforgettable trip and we will definitely be back! Highly recommended. - Suzanne
Leuk om alles vanaf de andere kant te bekijken. Mooie boottocht, veel gezien, nijlpaarden, krokodillen, slangen en meer. Ook een goede gids die veel vertelde. Zeker de moeite waard! - J.
