Safari Secrets: Wild Wonders of Southern Africa | Luxury Getaways

Imagine waking up to the call of wild birds, the sun rising over vast savannahs, and the thrill of seeing a lioness in her natural habitat. Southern Africa’s safaris offer not just an adventure but a deeply transformative journey. Whether you’re wandering Namibia’s desert dunes or cruising Botswana’s waterways, luxury safaris here combine unparalleled wilderness with world-class comfort. 

Here’s a guide to uncovering the best safari secrets in Southern Africa.

Why Choose Southern Africa for a Safari?

Southern Africa boasts some of the most diverse ecosystems on the planet, from Botswana’s lush Okavango Delta to the stark, otherworldly beauty of Namibia’s Sossusvlei dunes. It’s a haven for wildlife enthusiasts, offering sightings of the iconic Big Five, rare antelope species, and a kaleidoscope of birdlife.

What sets this region apart is its commitment to conservation and eco-tourism, ensuring that your travel footprint contributes positively to preserving these natural wonders. Add in the luxurious lodges and curated experiences, and Southern Africa stands out as the ultimate safari destination for those seeking exclusivity and authenticity.

Destinations to Explore

South Africa

Explore Shamwari Private Game Reserve, a conservation success story where vast plains are home to rhinos, elephants, and leopards. Shamwari offers both thrilling game drives and serene landscapes for ultimate relaxation.

Located in the iconic Kruger National Park, Lebombo Lodge offers contemporary design with sweeping views of the N’wanetsi River. The lodge’s sleek architecture and proximity to wildlife make it a standout destination.

I really wanted to go to the musical instrument museum in Brussels but I didn't have time :( the house of European history is also really interesting as long as you don't get one of the noon tours

oh that does look like an interesting museum too, definitely adding it to the list !! yet another reason to go back to Belgium !

y'know whenever I get a recommendation or learn about something new to do/visit in Belgium, it reminds me of an article I read back in the '00s. apparently Belgium is consistently voted as the most boring country in Europe — and honestly I found that intriguing ! like, I'm not a particularly excitable or high-energy person, so a "boring" place actually sounds idyllic !! for a time, this was the main reason I wanted to visit the country lol (of course after studying French and Dutch/Flemish, and after joining langblr and meeting some wonderful Belgians, those became the primary motivations for wanting to visit)

but now every time I learn something interesting about Belgium, my first reaction is "well, that's not boring at all !" and I can't help but wonder what the methodology or criteria are for decided a country is boring ?

Il periodo migliore per un safari - quando andare?

La buona riuscita di un safari è nelle mani della natura, che decide di manifestarsi secondo ritmi impossibili da controllare. Per godersi al meglio lo spettacolo, è meglio adeguarsi alle stagioni, seguendo la naturale cadenza del tempo. #safari #africa

Un viaggio importante Meglio non sbagliare Se stai pensando di avventurarti in un safari, il periodo è uno dei fattori da tenere in considerazione. Un safari è molto impegnativo, sia fisicamente che economicamente: sbagliare il periodo è un errore che può rovinarti la costosa vacanza. In realtà non c’è mai un periodo sconsigliato per andare in Africa, ma ogni singolo mese ha condizioni…

I am over the moon to be able to share a sneak peek at these! I had the fantastic opportunity to illustrate two books for #BadgerLearning earlier this year and some teasers were released last week for the #LondonBookFair2023.

These titles are both from Badger’s brand-new Wow! Fiction series, aimed at reluctant readers in the 10-14-year-old age group and, I hope you’ll agree, a good fit for my illustration style!

I got thoroughly immersed in both stories and their characters during this project and I'm incredibly excited for their release.

The range will be published on 8 September this year and I'll be sharing more images and details as and when I'm able.
