Sabi Sand Private Game Reserve

Sabi Sand Game Reserve is regarded as one of the oldest and finest game reserves in southern Africa. Located in the southwestern corner of the world-renowned Kruger National Park. The reserve shares a 50-kilometre unfenced border with the Kruger National Park which means the thousands of animals that live in the Greater Kruger area are free to move freely through the wilderness region. The reserve has some of the worlds best lodges tucked away in prime locations, and since the Sabi Sands is privately run, guests can expect added extras such as night drives, guided bushwalks and off-road driving.

This spectacular reserve offers exceptional game viewing opportunities. Over 500 bird and almost 150 mammal species guest have a high chance of spotting all members of the Big 5 in a single game drive. If your lucky the elusive leopard which frequency the area.
