If you’re seeking a getaway like no other, look no further than the Kruger. Embark on a safari at one of the private Kruger National Park concessions for a stay of unrivaled luxury.
Lion Sands Narina Lodge is located in the prime game-viewing location of the Tinga Concession overlooking the Sabie River within the famous Kruger National Park. The Big 5 sightings are frequent, which is why this lodge is rated top-notch for game viewing and one of the ultimate safari destinations in South Africa.
Begin your journey from Johannesburg with a scheduled flight from OR Tambo International Airport to the Kruger National Park. On arrival, you will be met and transferred to Lion Sands Narina lodge for check-in. (The scheduled flights for this safari may also begin/end in Cape town with direct flights from Cape Town to Skukuza available).
Settle into your Luxury Suite, built to afford complete privacy in a wilderness where you can watch the animals come down to the river from your pool and deck. Sliding doors and windows open up your sanctuary to the outside.
As the daylight fades, you will head out with your guide and tracker for an evening/night game drive through the reserve in search of wildlife including the Big 5. Expect an uninterrupted game-viewing experience in an untouched African wilderness. Game drives average 3 -4 hours in duration with a refreshments stop en-route. Arrive back at the lodge in time to freshen up before enjoying a sumptuous dinner.
The next two days are spent in the welcome embrace of one of Africa's finest game-viewing destinations.
A visit to Lion Sands Narina can completely restore your energy allowing you to truly relax. When you’re right on the Sabie River, watching the animals, surrounded by bush and sky, you really feel like you’ve escaped from the world. With 5 000ha of wilderness in this private concession within the world-renowned Kruger National Park, you can go exploring off-road, follow in the footsteps of a leopard, track down a herd of elephants, or simply wait for them to come to you.
Set off for exciting game walks and morning & evening/night game drives to experience sightings of the Big 5 and smaller game such as bushbuck, kudu and even monkeys. Game viewing can even be enjoyed from the large river deck at the lodge or from the privacy of your own private plunge pool.
After one final game drive and a warm heartening breakfast, you bid farewell to the African bush as you transfer back to the airport in time to catch your flight back to Johannesburg's OR Tambo Airport. Here, you will connect with your onward travel arrangements.

Shann was very responsive
Shann was very responsive, provided multiple options, and was flexible to our changing needs and desires. Our travel selection was somewhat last minute and Shann was able to accommodate with many price points and reserves that were lower malaria risks.

Leigh-Ann was amazing.
Leigh-Ann was amazing. She worked incredibly hard to provide us with our complex safari in Botswana and our travel and accommodation in South Africa. Leigh-Ann was always very helpful and encouraging which must have been very difficult for her as we were within a very tight time schedule to arrange our holiday. She was very thoughtful and even included a list of the things we would need to take. I am so happy with the final outcome and I am very thankful to Leigh-Ann and the other Safari.com team members who worked so hard to make our dream safari a reality.
