Days 2 to 4 - On safari

A typical day on safari will include an early cup of tea or coffee before your morning game drive, a full, sumptuous breakfast back at the lodge, relaxing by the pool before lunch and then an afternoon safari activity and return to the lodge in time for dinner as night falls.

The early morning drives are brilliant for trying to see the big cats in action and it's fantastic for photographers. The Sabi Sands region is renowned for incredible leopard sightings and has a healthy population of rhinos along with giraffes, lions, elephants and hundreds of other species.
