Fly by scheduled charter from Johannesburg or Skukuza to Satara Airstrip, followed by an approx. 45-minute road transfer to the lodge. Self-drive through the Kruger Park to the lodge is also possible
The standard suites already feel expansive, with floor-to-ceiling glass walls, oversized decks, outdoor daybeds, and contemporary open-plan bathrooms. The two-bedroom villa-style suite is ideal for families or couples travelling together, adding a private-use feel while maintaining the same striking architectural design.
Dining is contemporary and executed to a very high standard. Lunch is often served as relaxed sharing plates, while evenings feature an elegant à la carte menu showcasing seasonal ingredients sourced from across the region. The experience is complemented by Singita’s world-renowned wine programme, one of the finest in Africa. Meals are enjoyed in a refined yet unpretentious atmosphere, often overlooking the pool and the vast wilderness beyond.
Neutral safari clothing, a warm layer for winter mornings, and lightweight clothing for the warmer summer months.
Ask your guide to include the N’Wanetsi lookout stop during your drive. The elevated viewpoint over the river system is one of the most iconic landscapes in Kruger, especially at sunrise or late afternoon. Ask for a wine tasting with the wine sommelier in their own impressive wine cellar, with one of the largest collection of South African wines. I would also suggest to carve out some time to look through the newly opened and interactive conservation "museum".
Singita’s concession in eastern Kruger forms part of one of the most important protected wilderness areas in Africa. Conservation efforts focus heavily on anti-poaching operations, rhino protection, habitat preservation, biodiversity monitoring, and long-term ecological management, supported through the Singita Lowveld Trust and community partnership programmes.
