MALA MALA GAME LODGE


		LUXURY PRIVATE GAME LODGES GREATER KRUGER - SOUTH AFRICA These private game reserves have the big five on their property. Their major advantage over the Kruger National Park is that you can go off the track in a 4X4 to get a closer look, without having to compete for viewing space with any other vehicles. The accommodation and cuisine is invariably luxurious and all inclusive.

KRUGER NATIONAL PARK The largest National Park in South Africa. Established in 1889, is more than 2 million hectares, and larger than Wales. More than 146 mammal species, 507 bird species and 400 different tree types call this spectacular "Bushveld" home. It is only five hours drive or an hour’s flight from Johannesburg. Direct flights are also available from Cape Town, Durban and Port Elizabeth. Attached to Kruger are a large number of Private Game Reserves, making the region even larger

SABI SANDS
GREATER KRUGER- SOUTH AFRICA

Mala Mala is South Africa’s legendary and exclusive safari destination, adjoining the Kruger National Park.

Internationally acknowledged as "the top game viewing destination in the world", it is set in beautiful surroundings on the banks of the Sand River.

The focus of the Mala Mala safaris continues to reflect the ethos of the reserve over the past forty years – game viewing.

Sound conservation management has ensured an environmental sanctuary for an impressive density and diversity of wildlife.

MALA MALA MAIN CAMP
The ochre coloured buildings are clustered amid shady trees and manicured lawns overlooking the Sand River. The individually decorated, spacious and comfortable rooms under traditional thatching, enjoy spectacular views. Despite the comfort offered, MalaMala retains an authentic camp atmosphere. Dinner is served in the grand old African manner, under the stars in a reed enclosed boma - a MalaMala tradition for over 60 years. Seated around a log fire, under the starry African sky, enjoying superb food and outstanding South African wines is yet another highlight of the MalaMala experience. The luxury and comfort of the camp, combined with exhilarating game drives and guided walks in beautiful unspoilt wilderness dramatised by the close encounters with Africa’s game, big and small, is incomparable.

SABLE CAMP
Situated at the southern end of the MalaMala Camp in a prime elevated position overlooking the Sand River and surrounding bush, the Sable Camp is an ideal retreat for the more reclusive traveller who prefers privacy and exclusivity. The fully airconditioned, beautifully appointed Sable Camp has a truly colonial feel enhanced with modern comforts. A library with satellite television and internet connectivity give one the option to stay in touch with the world whilst the intimate safari bar, swimming pool and large wooden deck surrounding the camp provide the platform from which to admire the unimpeded views that make the Sable Camp experience so rich and interactive. The Sable Camp does not accommodate children under the age of 12, unless the entire camp is reserved exclusively at the respective charge.

RATTRAY’S ON MALA MALA
Rattray’s on MalaMala represents a classical "into Africa" safari experience in keeping with MalaMala’s history of presenting an authentic view of wildlife in Africa to the discerning traveller. Facilities within the main elegant building incorporate a viewing deck, an air-conditioned library, an attractive bar showcasing the history of the area and an adjoining wine cellar stocked with a wide range of South Africa’s best wines. With a maximum of 4 guests per safari vehicle this wildlife wonderland unfolds. Sightings of the Big Five and the interactions of the various species along the food chain from ants to elephants provide visitors with a glimpse of Africa as it has always been. Rattray’s does not accommodate children under the age of 16 years.
