5 yr Wedding anniversary at Kirkman's Kamp in the Sabi Sands



My husband and I spent our 5-yr wedding anniversary at Kirkman's Kamp in the Sabi Sands Private Game Reserve in South Africa. Kirkman's is one of my favourite game lodges in this area as they offer a home-away-from-home experience and phenomenal Big 5 game viewing.


We went in January which is actually the rainy season and not that good for game viewing. During the winter months from May to October I've seen the Big 5 within the 1st hour of the game drive. In January we saw the Big 5 over a period of 2 days. So you will still be able to see the Big 5, but not just all in your first game drive. The bush is BEAUTIFUL in January - green and lush...



In the evenings we had lovely sundowners in the bush before continuing on our evening game drive. They also did a lovely romantic room turndown with champagne and rose petals, etc.



They also did a lovely breakfast in the bush for us as a surprise one morning.



The room was lovely - very old-style colonial with a victoria bath and the works.



I can't wait to return... it was surely a nice and very romantic getaway for such a special occasion.
