Singita Sweni Lodge, which is situated in the far eastern reaches of the Kruger National Park, is offering foodies with a penchant for bundu-bashing the chance to cook in the bushveld with culinary whiz Bruce Robertson, former head chef at Singita Boulders Lodge.

Aimed at the high-end traveller, the four-night Gourmet Safaris will include activities such as bubbly-tastings, a walk entitled walking with lions and herbs, picnic breakfasts, cooking demos conducted by Bruce, boma drumming, game drives, and sosaties-and-stars bush dinners.

A selection of top-end wines from Singitas well-stocked cellar will accompany the gastronomic goods. As an added bonus, guests will have the run of the lodge, which includes a luxurious lounge, dining area, sparkling pool, bar and the aforementioned cellar.

Gourmet Safaris are booked on an exclusive-use basis from the princely sum of R90 141 per night (six luxury suites accommodating up to 12 guests on an all-inclusive basis) for a minimum of four nights, including all meals, beverages and activities, as well as road transfers from the nearby Satara airstrip to the lodge.
