Today, you will fly to the Timbavati Private Game Reserve to spend the next three nights at Tanda Tula. This 35,000sq-km private concession lies within Kruger National Park and is home to a phenomenal concentration of wildlife, including Africa’s Big Five.
Situated among enormous trees on the riverbank, the owner-run camp’s 12 elegant and secluded tents boast breathtaking views. Each one features an ensuite bathroom, a Victorian bathtub, an outdoor shower and a spacious deck overlooking the riverbed and African bush. The infinity pool looks out over a large waterhole frequented by wildlife and animals often pass through the camp. The atmosphere is laid-back and down to earth but undoubtedly romantic. Lunches are set up in different locations around the camp and, every evening, the garden is beautifully lit up with lights for dinner.
Here, you’ll spend your days out on game drives and safari walks with the highly experienced guides who will open your eyes to the wonders of the wildlife here. You are likely to spot elephant, lion, leopard, large herds of buffalo, rhino, zebra, giraffe, wildebeest, kudu and the rare wild dogs. We have arranged some very special experiences throughout your stay, including a romantic dinner on your private deck and bush breakfast set out on the banks of the riverbed. We also recommend a night out under the stars on a wonderful ‘starbed’, positioned 5m above the ground on a wooden platform illuminated with lanterns.
