Finding true wellbeing in Singita’s restorative spaces

One of the most inspiring things about going on safari is how being in step with nature makes you find your own rhythm too, and at Singita, guests can shape the flow of each day according to what resonates with them most.

Every moment holds the potential for the healing power of the wilderness to unfold – from greeting the dawn with a yoga session on your deck, relaxing into soothing wellness treatments surrounded by magnificent landscapes, to gathering around a fire, and enjoying nourishing meals bursting with the fresh flavours of the season.

With our commitment to preserve and protect Africa’s wildlife and wilderness central to all that we do, Singita also pursues a holistic approach when it comes to wellness. This includes an abiding appreciation for the restoration offered by nature and the grounded contentment brought on by time spent in the bush.

The benefits of being outdoors are well-documented - unpolluted air, quietude, and stepping out into untouched wilderness all contribute greatly to your physical health. But physical health is just one aspect of well-being as a whole. At Singita, we celebrate truly transformative experiences that touch guests on physical, mental and emotional levels.

Your day starts gently with coffee or soothing herbal tea while watching and listening to the bush and all its lifeforms waking up. As the fresh air and soft colours at sunrise usher you into awareness, excitement mounts with the realisation that soon, you’ll journey deep into the wilderness for unscripted experiences that surprise at every turn. Whether it’s on a game drive, bush walk or captivating birdwatching excursion, unspoilt beauty and a complete immersion in nature awaits.

Allowing your day to unfold mindfully and in the moment, creative and contemplative ways to awaken the senses include reading in your private sala at Singita Sabora Tented Camp while watching plains game passing by, using the paint set in your suite at Singita Sabi Sand to capture the surrounds, soaking in your private fireside plunge pool at Singita Kwitonda Lodge, or meditating outside while taking in the Serengeti grasslands at Singita Faru Faru Lodge.

A range of adventurous activities engages body and mind – from gorilla-trekking in Rwanda’s misty mountains and forests to cycling around Singita Volcanoes National Park, marvelling at the more than 120 ancient rock art sites at Singita Malilangwe in Zimbabwe, or a leisurely afternoon playing cricket on Singita Castleton’s sprawling lawn.

At Singita, we believe in the freedom to weave tactile and spiritual experiences together to create opportunities to unplug mentally and cherish life-changing encounters shared with those that you love, and the space and time to turn moments of rest into meaningful journeys of renewal.
