The road that leads from the main gate to Sibani Lodge and to Sibani Glamping, is a gravel road of no more than 4km. We would not recommend that you drive a sports vehicle, but other vehicles will reach us easily – being careful to settle on a driving speed that suits their vehicle and that does not exceed 30km/h (Reserve rules).
Sibani requires a 50% deposit payment immediately after an accommodation booking is made. An accommodation booking cannot be confirmed and secured without a deposit payment received in Sibani’s bank account. The remaining 50% for accommodation may be settled on site at Sibani. Day visitors are required to make 100% pre-payment to confirm and secure their activity bookings. Guests are advised to familiarise themselves with Sibani’s cancellation policy upon booking.
