Sabi Sand Game Reserve, the "birthplace" of sustainable wilderness tourism and development in Sub-Saharan Africa, loved by guests and staff alike as a place of wilderness, wildlife, and adventure. Home to the extensive Mpumalanga cross-section of wildlife, including the Big Five and various endangered species, the park also shares 50 kilometers of its unfenced boundary line with neighboring Kruger National Park. Animals pass casually between the two parks, unhindered and abundant.

Notten's Bush Camp is established on a privately owned region of the greater Sabi and is home to one of South Africa's most valued natural ecosystems. Unfenced and completely open to the huge variety of wildlife in the area, Notten's also employs a team of trained and experienced Shangaan trackers who provide a holistic introduction to the region's wilderness.
Accommodation at Notten's consists of nine exclusive safari suites featuring open-plan bedrooms and en-suite bathrooms. Each suite includes both indoor and outdoor shower facilities, ceiling fans, insect coils for mosquito protection, and private decks. Lighting is paraffin-powered, not electric.
Facilities at Notten's include restaurants, a cocktail lounge, a swimming pool, bird-watching areas, pubs, 24-hour laundry services, masseurs, a curio shop, and a wellness center.
Guests to Notten's Bush Camp can enjoy a variety of activities and planned outings. Included in every visit are open-vehicle morning and evening game drives, professionally guided bush walks through the unfenced wilds of the park, thrilling spotlit night game drives, spa treatments at Notten's Nature Spa, as well as short excursions to the fantastic Skukuza golf course.
Like many camps in this area, Notten's is home to an impressive selection of Big Five animals and various other species. The wildlife in this park has been so well acclimated to the presence of tourists and rangers that game viewing becomes an unparalleled pleasure. Hyenas are also regularly seen in the area, as well as grey duiker, kudu, bushbuck, impala, common waterbuck, nyala, elephants, white rhinos, buffalo, and giraffes. There are also 303 bird species native to this area, making for spectacular wildlife photography opportunities during guided walking tours.
