MAGNIFICENT AFRICAN SAFARI RETREAT

MAGNIFICENT AFRICAN SAFARI RETREAT (3 of 17)

Intrepid voyagers, you who love natural beauty and adventure, this six-night African safari retreat - three nights at Singita Grumeti Reserves and three nights at the Royal Malewane -- is for you. Singita, Grumeti Reserves, known as the "place of miracles," is world-renowned for providing the best safari experience in Africa. Every year, the Serengeti plain becomes the theatre for the migration of thousands of wild animals including zebras, gazelles, black gnus, and buffalo -- and you will have front-row seats for this breathtaking spectacle. Enjoy the charm and sophistication of an English manor house set on the hillside, as well as the 4WD safari close-up view of wildlife. Float above the plain in a hot air balloon, or adventure out on horseback, galloping alongside the zebras. Activities include tennis, outdoor pool, the spa, mountain biking, horseback riding, safaris with a guide, game drives, and archery. Find balance between nature's wild pulse and the quiet, sophisticated sublimity of colonial comfort, elegance, and style when you stay at the Royal Malewane. Situated in a 30,000-acre private game preserve on the fringe of the Kruger National Park in South Africa, the Royal Malewane is your opulent retreat within the untamed Bushveld. Here animals roam freely in the wilderness - lions wander and impalas amble about the land. Three nights of five-star accommodations for two in a palatial private double luxury suite offers you unparalleled views of the surrounding bush, complimentary game drives, indoor/outdoor showers, and an infinity pool. Fully inclusive of: accommodation, all meals and local beverages, game drives. Flights and transfers not included. VALUE: $12,997 Donated by Royal Malewane and Singita Grumeti Reserves 27/10/09
