Sabi Sabi | Earth Lodge
Overview
5 Days | 4 Nights
Seeing the Big 5 is thrilling, and so is learning about Mother Nature and the vast ecosystems from a highly qualified guide. Earth Lodge’s approach is to linger a touch longer at sightings and look a little deeper to appreciate all of nature’s creatures – big and small. Many of the guides and trackers have grown up in the area and have an instinctive understanding of nature. When you combine this passion with extensive training and planning the result is an exceptional safari experience leaving you feeling richer in knowledge and humbled by nature. The Land Rover vehicles used are open air with no rooms or windows. There will be times these are taken off road. Please be aware that these are wild animals and even though they may seem relaxed it’s important that they are treated with respect in regard to how close the vehicles are to them.
