  After breakfast take the shuttle bus to to Johannesburg Airport.

  You will be met at Sabi Sabi air strip and transferred to your lodge.

  Deep in the African bushveld, within South Africa's famous Sabi Sand Reserve, 'something enchanting lies in wait' - the Sabi Sabi Private Game Reserve. This award winning private game reserve offers world-class standards in luxury accommodation, exceptional close wildlife encounters, personal service and delicious cuisine.
  The Sabi Sabi philosophy of 'yesterday, today and tomorrow' stems from over 100 years of safari experience; a history richly woven into the atmosphere of each of its four uniquely individual safari lodges - Selati Camp, Bush Lodge, Little Bush Camp and Earth Lodge. South Africa and its warm hospitality echo through the style and flavour of each and every one.
  'Something special is happening deep in the heart of the wilderness...' The reserve is home to the 'Big Five' (elephant, rhino, lion, leopard and buffalo), as well as cheetah, wild dog and hundreds of other species of animals, birds and plants indigenous to the area. Highly trained and experienced rangers and trackers ensure that your safari experience ranks amongst the best in the world. You can look forward to fantastic close-up experiences with Africa's wildlife on every game drive.

• Day 3:

  Six luxury suites, each with a private viewing deck and heated spa bath overlooking the riverbed, are decorated in contemporary African design, complete with luxury furnishings, full bathroom en-suite, indoor and outdoor showers and air-conditioning. Thatched roofs, romantic mosquito nets draped over the comfortable beds and beautiful wooden finishes complete the picture of an exclusive safari getaway.

  Delicious dinners eaten outside under gently lit trees are a wonderful experience loved by all. This jewel of the South African bushveld boasts all of the features associated with an exceptional safari lodge - beautiful setting, excellent cuisine and abundant wildlife.

  Sabi Sabi's Little Bush Camp offers not only luxurious creature comforts, but a host of adventures as well. Tracking Africa's big game including the Big Five in open vehicles by day and at night accompanied by qualified game rangers and Shangaan trackers, and going off road for exceptional close wildlife encounters, make for a truly memorable experience - the highlight of your safari holiday in South Africa.

• Day 4:

  Another day in the African bush to spend a little more exploring the bushveld.

• Day 5:

  After one last opportunity to track some elusive animal species and a hearty breakfast, transfer to the Sabi Sabi airstrip.

  On arrival in Cape Town you will be met by your driver for the short transfer to your hotel.
  With its spectacular location in the Victoria & Alfred Waterfront and its stunning views of Table Mountain, the Only&Only is a destination unto itself. Discerning travelers and Capetonians alike are extended a warm welcome to dine on the celebrated cuisines of Nobuyuki “Nobu” Matsuhisa, revel in the high energy vibe of Vista Bar and sample rare and undiscovered vintages at the stunning Wine Loft. As the first luxury hotel to open in Cape Town in nearly a decade, the resort is designed to celebrate the city’s wine, art, design and spirit, balancing contemporary glamour with an authentic South African style.

• Day 6:

  You have two days at leisure to explore the beautiful city of Cape Town. Maybe take a trip in the cable car up Table Mountain or a boat ride for a poignant visit to Robben Island where Nelson Mandela was imprisoned for many years. Perhaps take time to explore the vibrant V&A Waterfront with its many shops, restaurants and activities available as well as the fascinating Two Oceans Aquarium. In the summer months maybe head for the white sand beaches of Clifton and Camps Bay for people watching and soaking up the African Sun. Whatever else, you will not be at a loss for things to do!
