Adjacent to the Kruger National Park, the Sabi Sand Nature Reserve is a private premier viewing destination. It was the first-ever private nature reserve established in South Africa. The landscape features 65 000 hectares of savannah-covered land interspersed with watering holes, dry river beds, Lowveld woodlands, and the perennial Sabi and Sand rivers. This spectacular reserve offers exceptional game viewing opportunities with frequent sightings of the renowned Big Five as well as cheetah, zebra, giraffe, and a variety of antelope. Visitors can enjoy excellent wildlife viewing, dining under the stars, guided bush walks and enjoying a stay in some of South Africa’s most luxurious safari lodges.
As the largest island in the Seychelles, Mahé combines granite peaks, dense tropical forest and curved beaches washed by the warm Indian Ocean. The island’s coastal roads wind past fishing villages, market stalls and quiet coves, while Morne Seychellois National Park offers hiking trails through misty hills scented with cinnamon and wet earth. Offshore reefs and calm bays create excellent conditions for snorkelling, diving and boat excursions, with clear water revealing coral gardens and bright tropical fish beneath the surface. In Victoria, colourful Creole influences shape the food, music and daily life, giving the island a more lived-in atmosphere than some of Seychelles’ smaller resort islands. Mahé balances natural beauty with local character, though travel between beaches can involve steep, winding roads.
