Day by Day
Mala Mala, Sabi Sand
Charter from OR Tambo delivers you to Mala Mala airstrip — no road transfer, no lost time. Check in, a brief orientation, then straight onto an evening drive. Sundowner in the bush.
Sabi Sand Game Reserve
Dawn drive at 05:30. Lion sighting by 06:15 is the norm on this concession. Return for brunch, then an afternoon drive targeting leopard — the Sabi Sand has the densest leopard density of any private reserve in Africa.
Mala Mala
This morning we walk. Your armed ranger and tracker take you on foot through the reserve — the experience shifts completely when you are no longer in a vehicle. Elephant tracks, dung beetles, bird calls.
Sabi Sand / Kruger boundary
We work the boundary between Sabi Sand and Kruger where rhino sightings are most reliable. Afternoon drive tracking a wild dog pack — Sabi Sand has a resident pack of 12.
Sabi Sand
A slow, dedicated photography drive with your guide. No rush, no ticking off lists. We position for light and wait.
Mala Mala River Camp
Morning at leisure — the lodge spa uses marula oil and indigenous botanicals. Late afternoon sunset boat cruise on the Sand River. Hippo at dusk.
Mala Mala → OR Tambo
One last dawn drive before breakfast and checkout. Charter back to Johannesburg arrives mid-morning, leaving the afternoon free for connections or a night in the city.
