Singita has three core pillars at the heart of their company – Biodiversity, Community and Sustainability. If you aren’t familiar with the brand, Singita consists of gorgeous lodges throughout Africa. In 1925, Luke Bailes great grandfather purchased a piece of land that later became known as Sabi Sand Reserve in South Africa. Early on, they focused on conservation efforts and protecting certain species, now with over 15 lodges in diverse locations, the continued commitment to protecting the land, community and creatures that inhabit each destination is so important.
