Sabi Sands
The Sabi Sands is a private game viewing area adjoining the South West section of the Kruger National Park. Home to some of the most luxurious properties on the continent, the Sabi Sands offers very good Big Five viewing from a selection of exceptional private reserves. Home to the likes of Singita’s Boulders Camp, Londolozi and Richard Branson’s Ulusaba, there is no doubt in our mind that this area is the finest part of the Kruger National Park.
The Sabi Sands Private Game reserve is one of the continents oldest and finest wildlife viewing areas. Well respected as housing phenomenal concentrations of Africa’s Big Five, the Sabi Sands is an area of approximately 60,000 Ha that shares a common boundary with the Kruger National Park itself.
The reserve is split up into a number of private game viewing areas run by an association of landowners. Some of Africa’s most famous lodges are found here, such as the luxurious operations run by Londolozi and Singita. These lodges are masters in hospitality with exceptionally high levels of service and great game viewing on offer in all. The Sabi Sands is the oldest of all the private reserves in South Africa and is home to a vast wildlife population including the Big Five. The majority of travellers visiting here will be lucky enough to see all the Big Five over a short period of time. Leopard viewing in the Sabi sands is without any doubt some of the finest in Africa.
We suggest a minimum of three nights to appreciate the area. Combinations with lodges in the Kruger National Park itself are common with clients usually combining safari with time on the garden route or in Cape Town. Extensions to beaches in Mozambique, the Seychelles and Mauritius are also possible.
Recommended lodges in this area:
Sabi Sands
Located in the Sabi sands reserve to the West of the Kruger itself, Singita’s Boulders Camp is the flagship property of the South African Singita operation and is recognised as one of Africa’s finest properties. With an exceptional level of luxury, service and hospitality Boulders is truly superb and would stake its claim to being one of the worlds finest accommodations, let alone just Africa’s.
Sabi Sands
Located close to Singita Boulders, Singita Ebony is a much more traditional camp than its super famous neighbour and is therefore not quite regarded as the same level of camp. The reality however is that Boulders is regarded as one of Africa’s finest camps so Ebony will always be in its shadow. Make no mistake, this is a seriously good safari camp with the same levels of service and hospitality as Boulders.
Sabi Sands
Located in the famous Sabi Sands game reserve, Londolozi Tree Camp is one of the finest game viewing camps throughout South Africa. Famous for the very good leopard viewing at all the Londolozi properties, Tree Camp is Londolozi’s flagship property and one of the Sabi sands most luxuriuous properties.
