Private game reserves
Privately run reserves, from the Sabi Sand and Timbavati to the Waterberg, with the lodges inside each.
Private reserves usually mean open vehicles, off-road driving and night drives, which national parks restrict. They also mean private lodges, so the stays here are mostly inside the reserve rather than beside it.
20 places
Each one opens on the park page with the nearest stays, sorted by distance.
