Week in Pics: It’s a Wildlife Wrap ! Goodbye 2015.
This week we’re bringing you an early edition of “Week in Pics”. The festive season is in full swing and we’ll be taking a few days break to recover from an abundant year of wildlife sightings. Our wildlife will carry on as per usual and we have little doubt we’ll be reigning in the new […]
Week in Pictures: The Mighty Jungle
“In the jungle, the mighty jungle, the lion sleeps tonight” is a well known and inspiring line from the song in Disney’s, The Lion King. Everyone knows the tune, but less people know that it was originally written and sung in Zulu, by South African artist, Solomon Linda. It was called Mbube meaning ‘lion’, and it was […]
Week in Pics: Lions are Loving the Festive Season
Whatever your denomination, or lack thereof, there’s no denying that there’s an air of festivity surrounding us. It seems our wildlife is getting involved in celebrating the silly season. We’ve seen some strange animal species hanging out together in the echoing darkness of the Kruger. Crocodiles, hippos and buffalo are sharing their space, the lions […]
Week in Pictures: Best of Black and White
Inspiring photography that captures the essence of the big game safari experience. Sometimes it’s the glare of a short-tempered lion, or the flight of a steenbok as it springs weightlessly from the ground in a mad dash to find cover. Perhaps it’s the swoosh of of an elephant’s bristly tail against its leathery skin, or […]

With the landscapes shifting and the foliage changing colour, new species begin to show their faces. Wildlife […]
The Week in Pictures: Best in Show
This week, it’s photography’s Best in Show from our safari camps in the Greater Kruger Park and Botswana.

Week in Pictures: A Dip into Our Astounding Archives
This week we’ve delved into the archives to showcase a few of our favourite images through the ages. The old adage of history repeating itself certainly rings true with our sightings – lions are still ambushing unsuspecting impala, leopards are still aloof, bush babies still look Bambi in the headlights and lone dagga boys are […]
Week in Pictures: Beauty and the Beasts
It’s that time of the week again! Time to take in some of the most wanderlust-evoking imagery we can gather from our collection of unique safari camps and lodges. Based in a few of the most renowned destinations in Southern Africa, guests at the Sun Destinations camps are exposed to wildlife activity on an unbelievable […]
Week in Pics: “You’ve Got Personality”
“Walk, with personality. Talk, with personality. Smile, with personality. Charm, with personality.” Those are the lyrics from Harold Logan and Lloyd Price’s top billboard hit from eons ago – 1959, to be exact. And these pictures, carefully selected for the week in pics, certainly have character and personality! If these images could talk, “You’ve Got […]
