What a memorable stay.
Our experience was perfect from start to finish. Booking the experience through Andy set the tone for the stress-free bush experience.
From the vanilla scented towels, to the delicious food, exciting game drives and phenomenal staff, our stay at Shiduli was magical from the second we arrived and lives in our hearts long after we left.
Your helpful staff greeted us as we arrived and and were with us every step of the way... literally. We were escorted to our private villa by Gary, who my children absolutely adored. Richard, in the bar was on form and Gogo Dorris had faith that we would see lions... which we did.
Thandy and Karen were friendly, professional and made us feel like old friends. We will definitely be back and will bring our friends and family so they can share in this beautiful gem.
Recommendations were great and all the arrangements worked smoothly. Andy was always reachable and receptive to requests and modification. 100%

The Knowledge of the tracker (Donald) and our guide (Helen) was exceptional and they ensured we were able to see everything. We seen leopards, cheetahs and lions. You stop for a morning coffee out in the bush and sundowners in the evening, this was also excellently organised. The rooms are absolutely stunning with the biggest mini bar I’ve ever seen. The drink options are fantastic. Super comfortable rooms and luxurious. Food was superb. Each evening there was a different location for dinner excellently curated by the team at the hotel, with food prepared to a very high standard. We also used the gym facilities which were great. The service and operational standards at this hotel are exceptional. I would 100% stay at this lodge again it was such an incredible experience

7 Day Deluxe Timbavati and Sabi Sand Safari
DAY 1 - 3: TIMBAVATI PRIVATE GAME RESERVE
Today you will depart on a scheduled flight from Johannesburg's OR Tambo Airport to the Timbavati Private Game Reserve where you will spend the next three days in ultimate luxury whilst exploring the African bushveld.
The mornings start with an early wake-up call and a fresh cup of brewed coffee or tea, before heading out into the bush with a highly skilled ranger and tracker for about 3 - 4 hours. Witness the bush come to life as animals awake and generally make their way to surrounding waterholes for a drink. Be sure to have your camera ready for some fantastic photographic opportunities.
After you return to camp, enjoy a hearty breakfast, followed by some free time to relax or venture out on an exciting bush walk with an armed ranger. Discover the excitement and ancient secrets of the African wilderness as you walk amongst the vegetation and animals of the bush. This experience will be sure to awaken your senses.
In the late afternoon, you head out into the bush again for more up-close animal encounters and to witness the most spectacular red-sky sunset you will ever see. Be sure to be on the lookout for the reserve's famous white lion.
DAY 4 - 6: SABI SAND PRIVATE GAME RESERVE
After one final early morning game drive in the Timbavati, you return to camp for breakfast and collect your belongings before heading to the Sabi Sand Private Game Reserve.
After settling into your luxurious suite and a sumptuous lunch, you will gear up for your first of many adventures in the Sabi Sands. Darkness brings about a time of both danger and respite in the bush which allows you to possibly spot smaller carnivores like Genet or Civet not usually seen by day. This is also the time when most predators hunt so your evening game drive could potentially be the most exciting of all.
No dinner will ever be the same at Leopard Hills, from dining under the stars in the traditional boma to fine silver service dinners in the dining room, or out on the upper deck where a cool breeze is a welcome relief from the African heat. The perfect end to a wonderful safari experience; a private dinner on the deck of your suite is offered to couples wanting to spend time together in privacy.
Those with a passion for wildlife photography will be able to get various tips from their ranger on taking the perfect picture, while on their game drive or walking safari. The rangers are avid fans of photography and many of them have entered renowned international and local competitions.
DAY 7: DEPART SABI SANDS PRIVATE GAME RESERVE
Your final morning in the African bush includes one last opportunity to see wildlife before heading back to Johannesburg's OR Tambo Airport where you will connect with your onward travel arrangements. You may leave Africa with a heavy heart but the experiences you have had remain etched in your memory forever.
- Comfortable light clothing for summer months, including a swimming costume.
- A very warm jacket for game drives during winter – conditions can be chilly!
- Walking shoes and socks.
- Sun-hat, sunglasses and sunscreen (the African sun is harsh for the unprotected body).
- Camera and plenty of film/ memory space.
- A good book.
