From yoga to star-gazing and more!

There's much more to a safari than just the Big Five... It's a mantra we're fond of sharing with guests who are looking for something a little out of the ordinary where their safari experience is concerned. 

We love helping to put together specialist group safaris that focus on things like photography, wellness, art, yoga, star-gazing, birding, walking or self-growth and mindfulness. 

We understand that specialists require, well, something special! So we help to put together everything a specialist group would need to enjoy a few magical days in the wilderness of the Klaserie, focussing on their area of speciality. 

For example, for keen photographers and members of photographic clubs or societies, we have access to some sensational private wildlife photography guides to lead your Baobab Ridge safari and share their insight and expertise on a one-to-one basis.

Yoga enthusiasts might like to come and spend a few days in the bush unwinding with a professional yoga instructor, taking advantage of the wonderful wild environment to improve their poses and sense of wellbeing and balance. 

Try some sun salutations on our wonderful deck or out in the wilderness at a beautiful spot our guides will pick for you and your group. We take wellness very seriously and can tailor a menu to meet specific requirements and suit all diets.

If you're a budding ornithologist then how about allowing us to put together a special birding safari for you and your friends, led by one of the amazing private birding guides we work with in the Greater Kruger area? The birding is great all year round but especially fabulous in the summer, between November and February, when all the amazing migrant species are with us and breeding is at its height.

We can cater to groups of up to 16 people and recommend taking the lodge out in its entirety for the duration of a specialist safari as this allows us to be super-flexible with daily itineraries, game viewing and special, tailored activities, as well as mealtimes and menus. 

Our reservations manager, Linda, is an expert in putting together specialist packages for groups, whether it be friends and families wanting to do something different on safari or organisations, clubs and societies. So feel free to get in touch to chat about the possibilities!
