The Sabi Sands borders
the western edge of the Kruger National Park. No fence exists
between the Kruger National Park and the Sabi Sands
Reserve so the animals are free to roam in
and out unhindered.
Being directly connected to the Kruger National
Park is a major advantage for game viewing and has contributed to making the Sabi
Sands Reserve one of the most prestigious
private wildlife reserves in South Africa.
We have a lasting passion and closeness with
the Sabi Sands. It
is the most expensive
reserve in South Africa to visit but more
importantly it is 'the best' private reserve;
in our opinion.
We operate in the wilder northern part of the
reserve (North of the Sand River), which is fortunately still affordable and is very much
situated away from the mainstream tourist areas. One can still experience the tranquility of
the South African bush in seclusion in the Sabi Sands Reserve.
You will find both the
standard and luxury 'lodge' accommodation exceedingly comfortable.
The service isand friendly, giving you that homely atmosphere.
All the 'off road' game viewing drives and walking safaris are carried out
by professional game rangers and local trackers, who will always
indulge you with the best game viewing - it's all very traditional.
There is no 'best time' to visit the Sabi Sands
Reserve. It's just great to visit anytime. There are however two
distinct seasons that could determine when you would prefer to
visit:
Summer season (September - March) is the season
during which all the animals flourish because of the rain - it's
the time of plenty. Thunderstorms occur mostly late afternoon
or at night. As a result the reserve is transformed into a green
paradise. It's the time to enjoy beautiful trees and flowers.
Hundreds of Impala lambs are born; staple diet of all the predators.
During the summer season you must be prepared for average temperatures
of 32 C with maximum temperatures reaching 47 C. There is more
consistent rain during the day, towards the end of the summer
season - February to March.
Winter season (April - August) is the dry season.
Because it virtually doesn't rain in winter, the reserve is transformed
into a brown and almost barren landscape. The animals have to
concentrate at the perennial waterhole's. The grass is low, the
bushes and trees have lost their leaves. As a result one can have
an unobstructed view through the bush making the game viewing
much easier.
During the winter season you must be prepared for
temperatures dropping to 4 C at night and in the mornings, with
daytime temperatures reaching a comfortable 24 C.
The Sabi Sands is world-renowned for it's Leopard
sightings. Completely wild Leopards have become accustomed to
the 4 x 4 Land Rovers permitting us to follow them through the
bush even whilst they are hunting. It's all 'close up' game viewing
- mostly only a few metres away.
