Southern Africa: Wild Bush to Island Heaven

• Fantastic opportunities for Big Five viewing, including cheetahs and leopards
• Bespoke, luxury lodges amongst some of the most breath-taking natural beauty on earth
• Diving in pristine oceans teeming with wildlife and unspoiled coral reefs
• Experience local expertise and culture every step of the way

andBeyond Phinda Private Game Reserve

This is where the adventure begins. Spend your mornings and afternoons on game drives in one of the best reserves for meeting cheetahs. Explore the unique local ecosystems on specialist walking safaris or set off to track black rhinos. This exclusive reserve is home to seven distinct habitats with their own flora and fauna to encounter.

You’ll stay either at the Phinda Rock Lodge or the Phinda Vlei Lodge, experiencing en suite luxury with pan-African meals and a private pool. The emphasis is on intimacy and life-changing experiences: a night under the stars, watching the sunrise and a beach adventure to Maputaland are just some of the possibilities. Or simply step out onto the viewing deck and drink in the natural beauty of South Africa.

Sabi Sands Private Game Reserve

Prepare for your next three nights at this incredible reserve renowned for its concentration of wildlife. The elusive leopard is the star of the show, but is only one member of the kingdom of animals that thrives here on the Sabi and Sands rivers. Rangers here and at Phinda have more freedom than in other non-private reserves to guide you closer to animals in the bush. When not on safari, your base will be the andBeyond Tengile River Lodge. Your suite feels as though it’s floating above the Sabi and has been built with sustainability at its core. Resplendent in its natural serenity, the lodge nonetheless offers the height of comfort, with a massage and gym area for downtime. Here it’s all about the wildlife. Interpretive nature walks and incredible bird-spotting are on offer when not on safari.

andBeyond Benguerra Island

Prepare for a change of scene as you alight on this gorgeous island off the coast of Mozambique. This idyllic location lies within the protected marine reserve of the Bazaruto Archipelago National Park. Scuba diving among coral reefs, snorkelling alongside the rainbow of sea life and looking out for the mysterious Dugong are just some of the highlights of your stay. Explore the landscape and freshwater lagoons inland on a horse safari. Take in an exquisite castaway picnic and cap a romantic day off with a sunset dhow cruise. Your luxury casinha, nestled beneath the shade of the indigenous forest, offers outdoor showers, a view of the tropical garden and all manner of ways to relax on the sand – including a beach bar.
