Activities:

Astronomy Tour

Lie back under the African Sky and be taken on a journey through our ancient galaxy.

This is done as an addition to the stars being covered during the evening game drive and is kept as a surprise for those guests ( max 8 ) who have a keen interest in our solar system and the associated African folklore.

Bush Breakfasts

Guests are driven to either the river hide or one of the open plains where breakfast is served. A full table is set and the guests are invited to join the animals, which can often be viewed from the breakfast venue, whilst savouring a full continental breakfast.

Bush Dinners

Guests are driven to either a dry riverbed or under the African sky on an open plain. Lit by only paraffin lamps and a big open campfire, this dining experience makes for one of the most unforgettable memories of a visit to Africa. Listen to the night sounds and enjoy a sumptuous meal cooked on the open-coals of the bush fire.

Full Moon Walks

Full Moon walks can only be taken during the week of the full moon when there is enough light to walk along the various bush paths without the assistance of a torch. As this is such a magical experience it is highly recommended to those guests who are fortunate enough to be at Lion Sands over this period. General Game Walks are also available.
