Ulusaba Lodge / Kruger National Park SOUTH AFRICA
Christmas and Year End Celebrations in Africa
at the Ulusaba Game Lodge in the Kruger National Park ( South Africa)
Christmas and New Year’s Eve celebrations at Sir Richard Branson’s Ulusaba Private Game Reserve promise treasured memories for years to come.
On the Eve of Christmas
The Justicia Best Boys Choir will be singing all your favourite carols gathered round our African- inspired Christmas tree, while our chefs prepare a feast fit for Kings!
On Christmas Day
Your ranger will whisk you away to a secret location in the Bush where Christmas lunch is served under ancient Jackalberry trees, whilst you tap your feet to the eager rhythms of a Marimba band…
Celebrate New Year’s Eve under a blanket of stars
Your very last game drive of 2008 brings you to ‘Marula’, Ulusaba’s own African Lounge in the Bush.
Here you will feast on traditional dishes prepared over an open fire. Enter the New Year with a beat in your heart as you are delighted by pulsating drums set against a backdrop of African theatre.
The night fades at the Bush Observatory with the stars twinkling in silent and shared anticipation.
New Year’s Day
A late-morning Champagne Brunch will be served for those Bush Babies and other creatures of the night. Early birds can indulge in a Continental Breakfast.
