Wildlife at the Savanna Private Game Reserve
The Savanna Private Game Reserve covers ten thousand hectares of unspoiled African bushveld where frequent sightings of Africa's big game occur during the early morning, late afternoon and evening game drives.
Lion, leopard, elephant, buffalo, rhino, cheetah, hippo and crocodile, many more animals and over 450 bird species can be observed from the comfort and safety of the open game drive vehicles.
Game drives at the Savanna Private Game Reserve are conducted by professional well trained game rangers and trackers, who are experienced and knowledgeable on all aspects of the African bush.
The Sabi Sand region in South Africa is well known for having the best leopard sightings in the world and is famous as " The Land of the Leopard".
Landrovers are used for the game drives and have been modified to ensure guests safety and comfort. The Landrovers can accommodate up to 10 passengers if required. There are never more than two vehicles at a sighting except with very relaxed animals in open terrain in which case three vehicles may be allowed at the sighting. The afternoon game drive is purposefully interrupted for sundowners to witness an african sunset, and the absolute peace and quiet of the bush.
Optional walking safaris are offered to guests staying at the Savanna Camp, in order to experience the beauty and fascination of Africa's flora and fauna.
Unique bush dinners and bush breakfasts are on request, weather permitting. Daily trips from the Savanna Lodge to the local Shangaan Village and a tour of the scenic Panarama route is available. These activities are offered during the day and will not affect participation in the daily game drives.
