“Once in a lifetime trip”

As you all might know by now, FGASA (Field Guides Association of Southern Africa) have changed their required number of days allocated to a level one qualification to 60 days from next year. The EcoTraining 28 day FGASA qualification will be your last chance to do a 28 day course with the FGASA exam. We decided to make this a “once in a lifetime” opportunity.

 Participants will be trained in 3 different reserves as part of the 28 day program; the training will include reserves in South Africa and Mashatu Game reserve in Botswana. The staring date for this specialist 28 day FGASA course is November the 25^th 2011. (Remember you don’t have to do this as a career, you can also do it as part of the adventure of a lifetime)

We started in 1993 with a mission to raise the standard of guiding in Africa.
EcoTraining is the oldest field guide training company in Africa. We
were one of the first companies to conduct formal training programmes for
nature guides. We are known in the industry as the pioneers and leaders in
field guide and nature training.

For more than a decade, we have been sending people of all ages into the African wilderness to learn about the environment in exciting, in-depth and sensitive ways and to find out what it really takes to become a game ranger or a field guide

Don’t miss the last opportunity to get both your EcoTraining as well as your FGASA qualification while exploring reserves in South Africa and Botswana. For more information contact enquiries@ecotraining.co.za or phone +27 (0) 13 752 5248. Space is limited on this course, visit www.ecotraining.co.za for more information on the 28 day course.

SA tourism in conjunction with EcoTraining just finished a media tour with 8 international journalists focusing on sustainable tourism and as part of “The green product” tour. The journalists represented 6 countries and experienced the EcoTraining Makuleke camp in the private Makuleke concession in the Kruger National park.  We will do this tour again next year – For more information please contact Corne at marketing@ecotraining.co.za

Hi Nayaz,

There aren't any flights between Nelspruit and Hluhluwe. Your best bet will be to fly from Nelspruit to Durban and then travel by road to Hluhluwe. Driving time is about 3 and half hours.

Nayaz
