Umkumbe Safari Lodge
Sabi Sands Game Reserve, South Africa
About This Property
The Experience
Umkumbe Safari Lodge is an owner-run, mid-range lodge on the banks of the seasonal Sand River in the Sabi Sand Game Reserve, which is unfenced from the Kruger National Park. Accommodation is in standard rooms and superior chalets, most looking onto the riverbed, where animals often come to graze within sight of camp. The pool, lounge, bar and dining deck all face the river, and dinners are served in a traditional boma. Stays include two game drives a day, with walking safaris also offered, making it one of the more affordable ways into the Sabi Sand.
