LUXURY SAFARI MAGAZINE'S MARK EVELEIGH IS INVITED TO VISIT FOUR SEASONS KUDA HURAA IN THE MALDIVES

“I was 17 when I first saw people riding waves standing up,” Hussain Areef tells me as we stroll along the timber boardwalk on Kuda Huraa island. “It was intriguing – I wanted to try it out too.”

It’s not really surprising that surfing was such a revelation since at that time the rest of the world was still struggling to accept even the vague possibility that there might be waves in the Maldives.

After all, this archipelago of 1,200 islands was primarily famous for its smooth, crystal-clear waters and kaleidoscopic reefs. When the first photos began to appear in international surf magazines surfers all over the world assumed that there had been a typo or a hoax.

Luxury Safari Magazine's Amber Hunter reviews Nambiti Hills Private Game Reserve

The pop of the champagne cork bursts the chilly air, and we relax in comfortable silence. Above the chirp of crickets, I hear a noise; my first instinct is to sit forward in my chair, squinting into the nothingness while my eyes adjust.

From our deck, it’s only a few paces before the grass area surrounding our suite slips into the thick unfenced wilderness.

I look at my husband to gauge his reaction, remembering I closed the door behind us to steer away anything with eight legs. But under the glow of the heavy full moon, branches move gently before a deep low rumble echoes in the still air. I set my glass down gently as a small herd of elephants emerge cautiously from the thicket. We sit entranced for what seems like hours as dark grey giants move gracefully and then disappear into the night.

LUXURY SAFARI MAGAZINE WELCOMES SUN CITY

Game-viewing at Sun City, sleep in, and take advantage of later sunrise.

While Sun City might be thought of in terms of golf, casinos, and water, the resort borders the Pilanesberg National Park, making it an ideal location for game-viewing holidays.

Winter is the best time as the cooler temperatures mean the animals are active for longer periods of the day, plus guests can sleep in as the sun rises later, allowing for slower starts in the morning.

The fourth largest park in South Africa, Pilanesberg has more than 200km of roads and more than 7 000 animals, including the Big 5, all in a malaria-free environment just three hours drive from Johannesburg.

ROMANCING THE RIVER BY SARAH KINGDOM

The intoxicating smell of wild jasmine fills the air, as the sun rises above the horizon, turning the sky from a pale grey to shades of lilac and pink. A faint mist rises off the river, and there’s a chill in the air. We are heading downstream, towards the boundary of Zambia’s Lower Zambezi National Park.

The Zambezi River, the fourth longest in Africa, passes through several countries and countless wonderful places on its journey from source to sea. Emerging from the ground as a tiny bubbling spring in north-western Zambia, the river passes through eastern Angola, along Namibia’s north-eastern border and the northern border of Botswana, then forms the boundary between Zambia and Zimbabwe, before flowing across Mozambique and ultimately emptying into the Indian Ocean. There are many special places along this extraordinary river, but one of my very favourites has to be Zambia’s magnificent and wild, Lower Zambezi National Park.
