Today we got to experience the highlights that make Sabi Sands such a special area. This morning we headed to the far north where a leopard had been spotted. We encountered her and her 3 cubs at the end of a ravine. We were getting ready to pull out to make room for another vehicle to visit when the leopards moved further down the ravine. Our ranger opted to track them so that we would have a position to give the second vehicle once they arrived. Mom settled down on the floor of the ravine about 15 feet in front of us and the cubs put on a dazzling show, playing with each other and their mom. The other vehicle was delayed in reaching us so we sat with the leopards for 20 minutes or more watching their antics up close - what a sighting!!
Back to the lodge for lunch and then this afternoon we got even more cat sightings- spotting a lion pride with a mom, her cubs, and her large 'nephew', a 2-3 year old male that patiently tolerated the tiny cubs playing over and around him. The ranger said this kind of tolerance from a larger male lion was unusual. He just slept lazily as they crawled all over him!
Adventure Life has been an extraordinary travel resource for us over the years and today was no exception. Our River Cruise booking was handled by Jess (who has been our personal trip planner for several years) the same day as our inquiry. Suggestions were given for cabin choice and pre-trip options (that were not shown on the cruise line's website) like airport transfers and prepaid gratuities. Trip insurance recommendations followed and we were assigned a travel co-ordinator till the end of the tour. All we have to do is show up! Great service from friendly folks.

Our travel was flawless! The rider pickup (airport, hotel, ship) was seamless. Jane's recommendation for Emerald Cruise Sakara was everything I wanted but the experience was soooo much more. Adventure Life took care of each and every detail and this was the easiest of all my travels.
