The great escape – getting away from it all at Izintaba Lodge
We’ve done the lodges, we’ve seen the Big Five multiple times. And, we’ve realised over the years that the magic of the African bush doesn’t depend on those superstar creatures sometimes the bit players and extras can be just as entertaining.
At most luxury game lodges, they will guarantee you a full “Big Five” sighting within 48 hours at the most. That often means a Bosveld Grand Prix for you as you bounce along in the game drive vehicle with a guide keen to move on as quickly as possible to the next show animal. (Big Five = Big Tips)
