Return to a gourmet 3 course dinner with full bar facilities available. The early morning guided game drives are from sunrise for approximately 3 hours to return to the Lodge's excellent cuisine at breakfast. Its not all about food, but lunch will be served and that too will be a gastronomical delight. Between meals guests are able to take in a bit of me time and relax in the bush at ones lux tent or at the central facility. Keen birders will be enthralled by the variety of bird-life in camp as too some relatively tame resident antelope.
This Rhino Sands Safari Camp comes highly recommended by ourselves and one has to admire the owner's integrity and determination to offer an amazing wildlife venue holding proud their environmental ethos with as minimal an impact as possible.
