Private Kruger National Park Concession
You’ll enjoy daily activities for the duration of your stay at Singita, including open 4x4 game drives, guided nature walks, mountain bike rides and archery. For those who prefer a little pampering, their excellent spa treatments should not be overlooked. A community village visit is also an interesting activity you might consider.
Above all else, you’ve traveled to this remote corner of Africa for the wildlife. You won’t be disappointed. The combination of a luxury safari lodge situated in a remote but densely populated wildlife area makes for perhaps the most exclusive safari experience on the continent. Game drives at Singita are conducted using late model vehicles carrying a maximum of just six guests, guaranteeing a ‘window’ seat to every passenger. Very close wildlife encounters are all but guaranteed. Singita’s 13,300-hectare concession is prime African wilderness, arguably the most exclusive in the Kruger National Park and certainly one of the most densely populated. The Sweni, N’Wanetsi and Machinyeka Rivers - as well as several permanent waterholes in the district, are a lifeline in an often harsh and unforgiving environment for thousands of animals including large families of elephant, herds of buffalo as many as a thousand strong, and hippo, hyena, white and black rhino, cheetah and sable, a rather rare sighting in Kruger. Predators – especially lion, are frequently encountered. The internationally acclaimed ‘Lion Army’ documentary was filmed in this region of Kruger and the now-famous mega-pride - as many as thirty-five animals makes the Singita concession their home. In recent years at least two white lions were observed here, a very rare occurrence indeed and only ever recorded in the central Kruger and adjacent Timbavati regions in Africa. These species, are of course not the only animals living here and sightings of impala, zebra, giraffe, warthog, waterbuck, nyala and wildebeest occur frequently. African wild dog, once uncommon, are now recent additions to the predator hierarchy and are sometimes spotted.
