As a company we usually steer away from the excessively expensive properties, often because we cannot justify the expense.

However, the Singita group is definitely an exception. They offer incredible lodges, flawless service and overall product, but their prices do mean that they are not accessible to everyone.

I understand the attraction of the Sabi Sands, especially as it is arguably the most well-known of the private game areas. I would also suggest you have a look at lodges in the Timbavati (north of the Sabi Sands). Like the Sabi Sands it is unfenced and open to Kruger, and offers some exceptional game viewing and some great lodges. We particularly like Motswari for the overall experience.
