Sabi Sands Safari is a safari that the Lutrin family has always wanted to experience, and thanks to the Discover Africa team, this dream has become a reality.

The Lutrin family is originally from South Africa, and they wanted to get to know the country better by embarking on their Sabi Sands Adventure in April 2021, which was carefully curated by Discover Africa’s expert travel agent Antoinette Van Heerden.

Natalie and family

My family and I are from South Africa. Sabi Sands is a safari that we always dreamed of doing and Discover Africa made that happen seamlessly.

We thoroughly enjoyed it and are already working with Antoinette (our travel consultant at Discover Africa) to book our next trip!

The service at the lodge was excellent and we had an amazing ranger and tracker. So we were lucky to see such amazing sights and some very rare ones at that.

Discover Africa Through Travellers' Stories

These stories capture the real magic of Africa – where every journey becomes a chapter worth sharing.

The true magic, though, is with the people. They’re not just staff; they’re my friends, my family.

JJ Towler's journey was crafted with the expertise of Matthys Van Aswegen

I went to Africa to help my parents check a box, but I returned with a new perspective on my own life. Africa is no longer a "someday" destination for me; it’s a "must-return".

We trusted our guide implicitly as we sat mere metres from elephants, lions, and hippos.
