3 SINGITA IS COMMITTED TO SAVING AFRICA S WILDERNESS Singita is a conservation brand that has been preserving African wilderness for the past 25 years, offering guests an exceptional safari experience with 13 luxury, award-winning lodges and camps across six regions in Africa. In partnership with non-profit funds and trusts who implement strategic conservation projects in each region, Singita is preserving and protecting pristine land and existing wildlife populations and helping to create economic independence within communities that live alongside the reserves. Travellers choose to stay at Singita because of the expansive space and beauty of the reserves, limited guest and vehicle numbers, extraordinarily consistent game viewing and the exceptional care that is taken of each guest during their stay. When guests depart after a Singita safari, they are transformed for life, satisfied in the knowledge that they ve made a contribution to the legacy of Africa. HOME 3

4 CONSERVATION AS A WAY OF LIFE Built upon a 100-year purpose to preserve and protect African wilderness for future generations. Singita has been championing conservation in Africa from the very beginning with large scale projects in wildlife management and protection, reserve and ecosystem integrity, sustainable tourism practices and community development. Through a sustainable conservation model that helps balance tourism with conservation in all regions in which we operate, Singita s ethos of touching the earth lightly is no longer just a forward-thinking principle; it is imperative to our survival, and that of the land, wildlife and communities under our care.
