The exclusive concession is a richly diverse habitat, teeming with game, beneath endless African skies. Imaginative wood, steel and organic interiors, all encased in glass, create a stylishly contemporary feel in the suites and make the most of the astonishing views overlooking the river.

Waste no time setting off on one of the many options of activities available such as game drives, guided safari walks, mountain biking, stargazing safaris, archery or by enjoying a relaxing massage at the Spa.
