WHY WE LOVE IT:

Spacious sitting, dining, and bar areas steeped in the colonial atmosphere of gracious style and luxury contain mementos of a time long past, while the untamed outside whispers a promise of adventures not to be forgotten. Delight in the early morning and late afternoon game drives, interpretive bush walks, birdwatching, and impressive viewing of spotted hyena, various antelope, elephant, white rhino, buffalo, and hippo. The Sabi Sands Private Game Reserve is famed for its leopard sightings and you may well spot one of these elusive cats resting after a successful night hunt, or on the move. Wildlife is the biggest drawcard for most travelers and the guide and tracker teams are equipped with a wealth of knowledge. Game vehicles in Sabi Sands are able to go off-road in search of exceptional sightings and your safari may also continue after dark, with a specially filtered spotlight used to illuminate nocturnal wildlife.
