in the Deluxe Rooms, daybeds for delightful daydreaming in the Superior Rooms,

while the Pool Villas boast private swimming pools bordered by lotus ponds.

Indulge in unique healing techniques at the spa and taste healthy natural cuisine

at the Plantation Dining Restaurant to complete your Balinese experience. That is,

if you can tear yourself away from the infinity pool, whose turquoise waters give

the impression of spilling over into the jungle below and the sky above.

Imagine marvelling at the expressionist colours of the sun setting over the Tanzanian

savannah, sitting comfortably on a Persian carpet on your tent’s wooden viewing

deck, while watching a herd of zebras in the distance. All of this could be real at

the Singita Sabora Tented Camp, bringing nostalgic memories of a more romantic

time to life, while igniting your sense of adventure and enthusiasm. Of course, we

are not talking about staying in regular ‘tents’, but luxury lodges with silk curtains,

mahogany chests, priceless carpets and heavenly four-post beds. Your days will

be filled with adrenaline-pumping activities, such as mountain biking, or tranquil

reading at the Library Lounge Tent. Dinner prepared from local organic produce

concludes the day’s magical experiences, served under an Acacia tree lit with

Alila Ubud hurricane lanterns as you enjoy a glass of vintage wine. An unexpected encounter

between adventure and luxury. S. PAPADOGIANNI
