BEST HOTEL IN THE WORLD - SINGITA GRUMETI RESERVES

Singita Grumeti Reserves in Tanzania was named the best hotel in the world by influential magazine Travel + Leisure in its Annual World’s Best Awards in July 2011.  Although this is now stale news, we thought we would feature it in this newsletter for the discerning traveler looking for that exclusive, high end adventure. The destination is comprised of Sasakwa Lodge, Sabora Tented Camp and Faru Faru Lodge.

Grumeti Reserves is located adjacent to the Western Corridor of the Serengeti, bordering the national park, and encompasses 400,000 acres of unrivalled wilderness. The area forms part of the famous migratory route, which is traveled by hundreds of thousands of animals every year.

Loping herds of wildebeest and topi mingle with hundreds of zebra, a pride of lion dozes unperturbed beneath an umbrella tree, whilst a herd of elephant wander slowly through the woodland. Guests can experience all the wildlife Africa has to offer with game drives and walks.  It seems that remote and exotic destinations that convey a sense of authenticity and adventure are becoming quite popular and Singita is just one of those destinations
