Sabi Sand Private Game Reserve

The big 5 in only 6 hours. Never happened before.
What a beautiful trip.

Sabi Sand was incredible and the better of the two reserves we went to from a wildlife and game drive perspective. It felt like at every turn there was the next incredible thing to see!

Where do I begin! Elephant Plains exceeded our expectations and made or safari trip a dream come true. From the attention to detail in our rooms from the reception and housekeeping teams to the servers and chef for our meals, everything was exceptional. Carmen at the front desk especially made us feel welcome and definitely made everything much more fun for us. Now for the main event, game drives! Two game drives a day and every single one was different/exceptional! Sabi Sands really is a dream come true for big 5 sightings. Many said we would have to be lucky to see 1 Leopard, well we saw 5 different ones! What a beautiful animal. Our tracker Dion and guide/driver Nick were our team for the entire stay and they were phenomenal. Nic with his very informative with a splash of wit made every drive fun and enjoyable. Dion skills as a tracker were amazing, always on the lookout and they both even got us to see all the big 5 in one drive! With every drive you take a break for drinks and snacks. In the morning drive we had amazing coffee and in the evening we had great cocktails. The Lodge itself is amazing and clean. The dinner from chef Betty was some of the best food we have ever had! 10/10 food! We could not have asked for a better experience. My wife and I will never forget EP and this trip as it has instantly become a highlight of our life. Highly recommend EP 11/10 and we hope to come back soon!
