Review about Sabi Sand Game Reserve by Amy
Overall rating
5/5

We had great wildlife sightings in Sabi Sands, including a very close encounter with a pair of mating leopards! Incredible!

We did find that we saw more people and safari trucks than in Timbavati, and therefore the "bush vibe" is not the same. We felt more "in the wild" in Timbavati.

The game viewing was fantastic. We had close encounters with elephants, lions eating a kill, rhinos with a calf, and even saw a pair of leopards mating - right beside the Land Rover! We did have one quiet game drive, which goes to show you that the animals are wildlife, and nature is unpredictable. But our guide was determined to get us a close encounter with a leopard, and during the last hour of hour final drive, we sure did!!! Other highlights included sundowners (cocktails at sunset in the bush), and wild life viewing right from the dining area (some a little too close!!).

Down-to-earth but comfortable bush experience! Amazing Wildlife!
Overall rating
5/5

We had an amazing time in Timbavati. It was our first introduction to the South African bush, and it was
truly amazing. We stayed at Shindzela Tented Camp. The small size of the camp makes for an intimate experience, and you have a chance to meet and make friends with the guides, as well as other guests from around the world. The tents are extremely comfortable, providing everything you need. Our guide, Eugene, and tracker, Guyane (spelling?) were outstanding. They were a great team, and their knowledge and skill resulted in some extremely close encounters with wildlife.

The game viewing at Timbavati was outstanding. During our transfer drive into the reserve, we saw a herd of elephants, including babies! During game drives, we saw lions on a recent kill, got very close to elephants, hyenas, giraffe, you name it. Being able to continue the game drives after dark is also amazing, hearing a lion roar after dark, spotting honey badgers and a jackal were all highlights once the sun set.

The overall experience and atmosphere at Timbavati was exactly what we were looking for, and better. If
you are looking for a rustic, yet comfortable, true bush experience, this is your place. We are already
talking about going back in the future, and staying more than 2 nights!!

Overall rating
5/5

We spent four days at the Imfolozi reserve at Mpila camp, and it was great! Mpila is located on a hilltop with sweeping views of the Reserve from the bungalows. We saw both black and white rhino (whites every day), as well as elephant, lion, a dozen species of antelope (including nyala right outside our bungalow). The bungalows were nice, clean, and very reasonable cost-wise. Less crowded than Kruger, with the same excellent wildlife viewing. .. Birding was also great. We're from California and clocked about eighty species in the four days.

Fantastic wildlife, and numbers of wildlife. We are not experienced in African wildlife after only being here 2 years. Would like to go back and do a camp for 3-4 days near one of the pans. No human congestion, we seemed to have the place to ourselves.

Luxury safaris here are famous for being some of the most exclusive and private in the world.
Overall rating
5/5

This vast wetland attracts much game due to its lush vegetation and permanent water supplies – luxury safaris here are famous for being some of the most exclusive and private in the world, and the game viewing never disappoints. Due to the flat nature of the Delta the sunrises and sunsets are particularly colourful, which makes for excellent photographic opportunities when you do find your herd of zebra.

Matobo is very special in the sense that you will not only find wildlife, but amazing balancing rock formations as well as bushman paintings to be seen in caves.
