SAFARIS IN SOUTH AFRICA

DIFFERENCE BETWEEN KRUGER NATIONAL PARK AND PRIVATE RESERVES AROUND IT

• The accommodation in the private reserves is more luxurious and the service more personalised. The package includes all meals which are usually better than those in the Kruger National Park.
• In the private reserves, the number of guests is normally limited to approximately 20 guests, there are far fewer vehicles at an animal sighting.
• Night drives are included in most private reserves.
• In the private reserves it is usually possible to leave the roads and follow animals through the bush, allowing for a longer and closer sighting.
• The private reserves are found in the area of Kruger and there are no fences in between.

We recommend a mixture of both options or if time is limited, 2 or 3 nights in the private reserve. It is a unique and unforgettable experience.

From ZAR 6915 pp sharing

The lodges used are situated within the privately owned and operated Sabi Sand Game Reserve, part of the 2,2 million hectare Greater Kruger National Park. Here you will come face to face with Africa’s Big Five and may be lucky enough to encounter other rarer species such as the endangered wild dogs and cheetah.
The highlight of your visit is the thrill of discovering wildlife from open 4x4 vehicles. Your experienced game ranger and local Shangaan tracker are keen to share with you their extensive knowledge and love of the African bush. The day starts with an early morning game drive, then after breakfast a bush walk gives you the opportunity to learn about the smaller wonders of the veld. During the afternoon game drive you will stop at a carefully selected venue to enjoy a sun-downer whilst watching the sun set over the awe-inspiring wilderness.
Breakfast and lunch are served buffet style in the dining room and evening meals are served around a fire in the boma (weather permitting). Each meal is prepared with exquisite care and this combined with the open-air setting, promise an unforgettable dining experience.
The exclusive lodges host between 10 and 40 guests, guaranteeing gracious hospitality, personal service and privacy.

The various lodges offer different levels of luxury. Each room has an en-suite bathroom, ceiling fan and some have airconditioning. Facilities include a swimming pool and some have a spa.

NB: It is possible to arrange for charter flights direct from the lodge to other destinations in the country.
Scheduled flights also depart from Hoedspruit airport, but these only go to Johannesburg. Hoedspruit is closer to the lodge and therefore the road transfer would be cheaper.
It is also possible to transfer by road to Maputo in Mozambique for a flight to one of the island resorts where diving, snorkelling, fishing and relaxation await.
Road transfers can be arranged to the destination of your choice.
