Stay Connected

Although we encourage clients to focus on recovery during their stay, we understand that not everyone can completely separate themselves from work and life at home for a month or more.

At the centre, we have free Wi-Fi to help you keep up with responsibilities back at home, and we allow the usage of mobile phones at designated times.


What’s Included in Your Stay

At White River Manor, personalised treatment is complemented by private villa accommodation, chef-prepared meals and a team available around the clock.

Holistic Approach

We take every element of the client into consideration and create a personalised treatment plan that helps them through the psychological, emotional, physical, and spiritual aspects of addiction. We base our treatment on a combination of curriculums and the 12 Steps.


Personalised Treatment Therapies

We integrate elements from different therapy practices to provide the utmost care for our clients. We offer music therapy, psychodynamics, mindfulness and solution-focused therapy, as well as individual, group and family therapies.

Travelling Logistics

Getting Your Visa

We recommend that you ask your nation’s consular about international travel requirements. For those from the USA or UK, here are some quick facts about international travel:

Please contact us if you have any questions regarding international travel.


Booking Your Flights & Getting To White River Manor

Your final destination should be either Johannesburg (JNB) or Kruger International Airport (MQP). Nonstop flights from large airports like New York, Atlanta, London, or Dubai range from $1000 to $1800. Flying into Johannesburg tends to be the more affordable option, with purchasing a separate ticket to MQP from JNB on South African Airways for a short 45-minute flight.

Our staff can help you coordinate, purchase flights, and arrange transport from the airport to the centre if you’d like. We are committed to doing everything we can to make your travelling experience as smooth and enjoyable as possible.
