If you’re seeking a getaway like no other, look no further than the Kruger. Embark on a safari at one of the private Kruger National Park concessions for a stay of unrivaled luxury.
Lion Sands Narina Lodge is located in the prime game-viewing location of the Tinga Concession overlooking the Sabie River within the famous Kruger National Park. The Big 5 sightings are frequent, which is why this lodge is rated top-notch for game viewing and one of the ultimate safari destinations in South Africa.
On arrival, you will be met and transferred to Lion Sands Narina lodge for check-in.
Settle into your Luxury Suite, built to afford complete privacy in a wilderness where you can watch the animals come down to the river from your pool and deck. Sliding doors and windows open up your sanctuary to the outside.
As the daylight fades, you will head out with your guide and tracker for an evening/night game drive through the reserve in search of wildlife including the Big 5. Expect an uninterrupted game-viewing experience in an untouched African wilderness. Game drives average 3 -4 hours in duration with a refreshments stop en-route. Arrive back at the lodge in time to freshen up before enjoying a sumptuous dinner.
The next two days are spent in the welcome embrace of one of Africa's finest game-viewing destinations.
A visit to Lion Sands Narina can completely restore your energy allowing you to truly relax. When you’re right on the Sabie River, watching the animals, surrounded by bush and sky, you really feel like you’ve escaped from the world. With 5 000ha of wilderness in this private concession within the world-renowned Kruger National Park, you can go exploring off-road, follow in the footsteps of a leopard, track down a herd of elephants, or simply wait for them to come to you.
Set off for exciting game walks and morning & evening/night game drives to experience sightings of the Big 5 and smaller game such as bushbuck, kudu and even monkeys. Game viewing can even be enjoyed from the large river deck at the lodge or from the privacy of your own private plunge pool.
After one final game drive and a warm heartening breakfast, you bid farewell to the African bush as you transfer back to the airport in time to catch your flight back home.

Excellent, fast, helpful service
The service from Leigh-Ann has been exceptional. No matter the difference in time zone, her responses and suggestions are always fast and helpful. When we’ve asked for changes to the itinerary, there has never been a problem. Highly recommended.

Aquilia Safari trip
Re: Safari from Cape Town to Aquilia. Fadiel was very helpful and organised our trip for us. We were picked up by Joe, who was our driver for the day. Joe is born and raised in Cape Town. He was prompt and was very friendly and informative. There was a good choice of food at Aquilia and had choices for my husband too who is Coeliac.

Mel is friendly and patient
I would usually book my trips myself. Lucky for me I sent off an enquiry to Safari.com and received Mel's wonderful help. Mel responded quickly and made me feel comfortable with Safari.com. organising my trip. Later on, when I realised my dates didn't work with the rest of my trip, Mel gave me my options and costings and rebooked for me. Mel was very patient and friendly. I wouldn't hesitate to use Mel again.

Planning Our Family African Safari Experience
Planning our first trip to Africa was a really big deal for us. After careful review of numerous safari planners, we selected safari.com and worked with Nicole Van der Merwe. There's a lot of parts in putting together such a vacation including ground transfers, hotels, activities, and flights. At each step we had numerous questions and Nicole patiently worked through these with professionalism and care to her customers. I would recommend Nicole and safari.com for anyone planning a trip to South Africa.
