Safari, meaning journey in Swahili is the ultimate kind of holiday. Getting in touch with nature, spotting rare beasts in wild Africa and evenings spent enjoying traditional meals around a campfire helps us get in touch with our roots. Obviously, we like to inject a bit of modernism into each safari, which is why Ezulwini offers added value activities such as wine tasting!
Laurence Saad, owner of Ezulwini Game Lodges, decided to add that something extra to a safari. He built a wine cellar resembling a small cave. The entire cellar is built from natural rock and provides a truly intimate setting for an exclusive wine tasting session. Upon arrangement, guests can enjoy an evening of wine tasting with Laurence, who will chat about the history of the Balule and let you in on a few interesting facts about wine. We love this video because it highlights the “other” side of a safari.
We love this video of the York Pride of lions because our pride sightings are normally dominated by the Olifants West Pride of lions and the River Pride of lions. The York Pride is 13 members strong and is led by a huge, intimidating male. Mira’s video pans in on a few fantastic close-ups of our revered king of the jungle!
There comes a time on safari when you just sit back and marvel at the wonderment that lies in front of you. This video highlights one of those rare moments on safari when you become immersed in watching one of the big five interact. This breeding herd of elephants soaked themselves with water then sprayed dust onto their hide to create a layer of mud. Mud acts as a natural sun screen for our gentle jumbos and also cools them down. Look at how close the elephants are to the game vehicle. Posing no threat, the curious herd decided to go about their daily business!
