Introduction

South Africa is a world-class safari destination, with a number of superb game lodges in private reserves offering outstanding game viewing and incredible value formoney.

Londolozi and MalaMala are two of South Africa’s pioneering private game reserves in prime wilderness areas along the Sand River, in the heart of the Sabi SandsPrivate Game Reserve. Both share unfenced borders with the Kruger Park – an immense protected area of more than two million hectares. We have chosen twoexclusive lodges in this region which is renowned for some of South Africa’s finest Big Five encounters, an impressive diversity of general game and excellentbirdwatching.

This land has been protected for the last hundred years or so, and as a result, the wildlife is relaxed in the presence of game viewing vehicles. These private reservesoffer the freedom to explore off-road with highly experienced guides. There are very few other vehicles, offering exclusive game viewing and some of the bestphotographic opportunities in the country.

Both lodges are within easy reach of major airports. A few days in Cape Town, an Indian Ocean island retreat, or time spent with rare mountain gorillas in Rwandacould complement this trip, and may be added either before or after your safari.
