Kirkman's Kamp at Sabi Sands. The Sabi Sands game preserve, just south of Kruger National Park has the highest documented leopard population in the world, and my wife and I saw all of the big 5 (Elephants, Lion, Leopard, Rhino, and buffalo) in our first afternoon game drive. Sabi Sands is made up of several well known and luxiourous game lodges, and Kirkman's Kamp (click here) is certainly one of the best. Andbeyond is famous for it's luxury and hospitality, but also it's commitment to local peoples' and wildlife conservation, hence we stay at 2 of their lodges. I took all of the photos below in just a 3 night stay.
Phinda. Approximately 200 km south of Sabi Sands is Phinda, one of Andbeyonds crown jewels! We will spend 4 nights here and still not see it all.
