Sabi Sand
Savanna Tented Safari Lodge
Savanna traverses over a few thousand hectares of pristine African bushveld where frequent sightings of Africa’s big game occur during early morning, late afternoon and evening game drives. Lion, leopard, elephant, buffalo, rhino and cheetah, plus a large variety of general game and abundant bird life, are seen regularly. A state-of-art landrover is used for game drives and has been expertly modified to ensure your safety and comfort. Game drives are conducted by professional and extremely well qualified game rangers, who have a minimum working experience of five years in the industry. Optional walking safaris are conducted daily, in order to experience the beauty and fascination of Africa’s wildlife on foot.
The lodge is situated in the western sector of the internationally renowned and prestigious Sabi Sand Game Reserve, which borders the world famous Kruger National Park. The central facilities include a dining room, lounge and bar, which are all incorporated under a central tent overlooking a waterhole. From the comfort of the Lodge, guests may view some of Africa’s impressive wildlife as they come down to drink.
Full English breakfasts and delicious lunches are served in the tented dining room, and dinner is served in the open air boma around a log fire. The bar stocks an impressive array of quality South African wines, as well as a large selection of beers, spirits and soft drinks. In between game viewing activities and meals, guests may relax around the swimming pool or browse through the curio shop.
