Special offer available.

Stay & Pay

Book seven nights at a single Singita property in the Sabi Sand, Kruger National Park, Malilangwe, Volcanoes National Park or Okavango Delta regions and receive one night on us, valid for stays with arrival and departure between 6 January and 14 December 2027. A minimum of seven nights at the one property is required and the complimentary night is applied to the lowest-rated night. Castleton is excluded, and this offer cannot be combined with the other Singita offers.

Combine six nights across Singita Sabi Sand and Singita Kruger National Park and receive one night on us, with a minimum of three nights in each region; valid for arrivals and departures from now to 14 December 2026 and again from 6 January to 14 December 2027, excluding Castleton. Alternatively, the Long Stay Combination Offer gives two nights on us on a minimum of twelve nights across any two Singita regions, requiring at least three nights per property (four nights at Singita Volcanoes National Park in 2026) and including the Singita Villa Collection, so Ebony Villa qualifies. The complimentary night applies to the lowest-rated night, or the lowest-rated night per region on the long-stay offer, the arrival and departure dates must fall within the validity period, and the offers are mutually exclusive.

"Our contact at Safari.com was fantastic. She was able to answer all my questions, or find and out then text me back. Communication using email and WhatsApp was excellent. While planning our trip we had a large change and Denise was able to work with our Safari lodge to find a solution, which solved it. Booking went smoothly, suggestions about the trip were very helpful and I felt I was working with a professional who wanted the best experience for my family."
