The Sabi Sand Private Game Reserve is located on the western border of the Kruger National Park. Covering 65,000 hectares, it is famous for some of the best wildlife viewing opportunities in Africa. The reserve shares a 50-kilometer unfenced border with the Kruger, enabling animals to move freely between the two areas. The Sabi Sand Game Reserve comprises several private reserves, all providing an exclusive and luxurious experience in an untouched wilderness setting. Unlike the Kruger National Park, the Sabi Sand is private and offers a more exclusive experience to its guests.
The reserve boasts dense wildlife populations, including over 330 plant species, 45 fish species, 30 amphibian species, 110 reptile species, 500 bird species, and 145 mammal species. Sabi Sand is home to the Big Five and is among the best places globally to observe the elusive leopard in its natural habitat.

Guests can enjoy accommodation, all meals, beverages including premium wine and champagne, twice-daily game drives, walking safaris, informative talks, and laundry services as part of their package.

Safari 2 Months Away, Wonderful and Fussfree Experience
We wanted to go a Safari in about 2 months and was looking around the lodging. Most of the places were booked. Pascal was very experience and responsive, he got us a lodging at our preferred game reserve and quickly booked for us. We were also impressed with the quick turnaround for itinerary and booking of flights. He made it so fuss-free and we didnt need to change much at all. When we were going through our SA plans, he also advised us how to get to Cape Town and recommended the best timing so that we could go into the game reserve once more before we departed. Thus far, the experience has been great and we are looking forward to see him in person!

Super responsive and helpful
From the very first time I had contacted Safari.com to plan our trip, Pascal John was super responsive regardless of the time of day and almost always able to provide useful information. When he wasn't able to give an immediate reply, he would check and come back very quickly.
