Tintswalo

Tintswalo Safari Lodge is located in the Mpumulanga Province of South Africa on the private Manyeleti Reserve concession – a lush, exclusive lodge nestled between the Timbavati Private Reserve to the north, Sabi Sand Reserve to the south, and open to the Greater Kruger National Park on its fenceless eastern boundary. Resting amidst an ancient sycamore tree grove that overlooks a waterhole frequented by large herds of elephant and other big game, Safari Lodge is a pristine wilderness reserve abounding in big game and spectacular bird life.

The reserve is unique for its very low vehicle density, and as a result offers the true exclusive safari experience. Tintswalo Safari lodge is situated along a seasonal river bed among an ancient sycamore tree grove.

Singita

The balance of hospitality, conservation and community is what sets Singita apart, and has been at the core of the Singita experience from the very beginning.

Singita Sabi Sand offers rare solitude and the ultimate in safari luxury on prime game viewing land recognized globally for its diversity and formidable concentration of big game and frequent leopard sightings.

Singita Kruger National Park is situated where two rivers meet, in an exclusive game-rich 33 000 acres concession in the world-renowned Kruger National Park. Boasting the highest concentration of wildlife in the entire park, including the ‘Big 5′, the area is also known for its majestic Mountain Pride of lions and unique Euphorbia trees.

Wilderness Zambia and Wilderness Botswana

Duma Tau-Wilderness-Safari-Botswana

Wilderness Safaris prides themselves in being first and foremost a conservation organization.  They offer guests private access to 2.8 million hectares (6.5 million acres) of southern Africa’s finest wildlife reserves, while remaining fiercely committed to protecting our planet’s precious natural and cultural resources.

Toka Leya Camp consists of 12 spacious en-suite safari-style tents overlooking the mighty Zambezi River and some of its islands.  Wooden walkways snake between the units and main area, limiting our footprint on this pristine area.

Kalamu Lagoon Camp lies on a beautiful permanent lagoon just off the Luangwa River in the remote Luamfwa area in the southern section of South Luangwa National Park, home to hundreds of red lechwe, ubiquitous puku, stately roan and the diminutive oribi. This wealth of game is a big attraction for predators, including wild dog, cheetah and prides of lion. Kalamu Lagoon Camp comprises eight spacious luxury safari tents with spectacular views of the surrounding woodlands.

Puku Ridge Tented Camp is perched on an escarpment in a remote part of the South Luangwa National Park, near an area filled with floodplains, broad-leaved woodland, lush riverine vegetation and dambos (open grassy clearings). The region is home to 60 mammals – including elephant, lion, wild dog, buffalo, hippo and, of course, antelope – and over 400 bird species. Guests can spend an afternoon relaxing in the camp’s large living area in between thrilling game drives or walking safaris.

Vumbura Plains is a luxury camp situated in a private concession in the extreme north of the Delta. The concession, which is leased from the neighbouring community, includes a wide variety of habitats, diverse wildlife and an enormous traversing area of 60 000 hectares (130 000 acres). The camp comprises two separate seven-roomed satellite camps, each with its own raised dining, lounge and bar area tucked beneath a canopy of cool, shady, indigenous trees and with a magnificent vista across the floodplains.

DumaTau Camp is located in the 125,000 hectare Linyati Wildlife Reserve in the Okavango Delta, Botswana. Bordering the western boundary of the Chobe National Park in northern Botswana, DumaTau Camp is positioned near the source of the Savute Channel in the Linyati Swamp System. The area is well known for its game drives along the Savute Channel. DumaTau Camp is a ten-roomed luxury tented camp overlooking one of the many hippo-filled lagoons in the region and shaded by a grove of mangosteen trees.
