With stunning private game reserves, great successes of eco-preservation, diverse wildlife and some of the continent’s most sumptuous lodges, South Africa is a home-run luxury-safari destination. The country’s most famous national park is Kruger, the game-rich bushveld in the northeast of the country, followed by Madikwe, known for its semi-arid plains with red soil.
Work with Indagare to design the perfect itinerary for an immersive journey. Our travel experts know the destination inside and out, and they can make exclusive recommendations based on your travel needs and preferences.
Experience the best of safari along with private dinners in the bush and visits to conservation projects. Here is just one example of what our destination experts can create for you.
After transferring from Johannesburg, head to the nearly 5 million-acre Kruger National Park, where you can spot the Big Five. Early mornings and evenings will be spent on safari, while leisurely afternoons are free for pool time, an indulgent massage or a snooze.
A stop in the Sabi Sands Game Reserve—a sub-region of Kruger that is renowned for having a high concentration of leopards and the Big Five—is a must. Guests may also consider time in Madikwe, a popular park with strikingly different topography (semi-arid plains with red soil); and the Kalahari Desert, famously home to meerkat.
