Morning and evening game drives in open 4x4 safari vehicle are part and parcel of ones safari experience in the Sabi Sabi Game Reserve. All safaris a led by highly qualified guides and trackers.

After morning game drives and breakfast, should you desire there are short walking safari options on the cards. A great way to stretch those legs while viewing Africa's wildlife and birdlife on foot.
