child policy.

Children over 3 can be accommodated on game drives at the discretion of their ranger-
if the children become restless and unsettled, they will exit the animal sightings to ensure that the
animals are not stressed out.
The ranger is in complete control of their vehicle, and it is their responsibility to ensure that all guests
are safe and that animals are not negatively affected- if the children are not well behaved they may be banned from further game drives as it would impact the experience of other guests on the vehicle and pose a safety hazard.
Children under 3 remain in camp with a parent or relative. There is a child-minding service available at an additional cost – should all adults wish to join on game drive.

game drives

Game drives are conducted in open Land Cruisers. These 4-wheel drive vehicles enable the rangers to
drive off-road and provide guests with up close game viewing and great photographic opportunities.
Off-road driving is done in accordance to guidelines set out by the Sabi Sand ecologists. Off-road driving is only permitted in certain areas and with special precautions. The rangers do not drive over sensitive
areas, will only drive over small trees if they are encroachment species and if necessary, will do brush packing afterwards to limit the impact on the environment. Evening/night drives spotlights are used to assist with locating nocturnal animals

BUSH WALKS

A daily bush walk takes place after breakfast and you will be accompanied by your ranger. During your bush walk you will have the opportunity to take a closer look at animal tracks, birds, different types of grasses and trees, as well as any smaller details of the bush that might fascinate you. For safety and legal reasons, we do not allow guests aged 16 and under to go on the bush walk. Guests
over the age of 60 would be required to provide a medical certificate stating that they are in good
health and fit to go on a bush walk. The rangers will use their discretion concerning anything that
could pose a threat or jeopardize the safety of guests. These include the degree of fitness, agility and physical restrictions.
