Sabi Sand Game Reserve – Africa's Pinnacle Luxury Safari
Sabi Sand Luxury Safari Guide | Amity Adventure
The Sabi Sand Game Reserve, often called the Sabi Sand Private Game Reserve, is South Africa's most exclusive safari destination. Established over 70 years ago, this 65,000-hectare reserve shares an unfenced border with Kruger National Park, creating one of the richest wildlife corridors in Africa. Sabi Sand is world-renowned for its leopard population, earning it the title of Leopard Capital of the World. Here, the safari experience goes beyond game drives: enjoy off-road encounters, night safaris, guided bush walks, and intimate lodge settings that aren't possible in public Kruger. With luxury lodges like Singita, Londolozi, Lion Sands, Ulusaba, Sabi Sabi, and &Beyond, Sabi Sand is the ultimate safari playground for honeymooners, families, and discerning travellers from the USA, Europe, Australia, and Canada.
