Camp Details

Located in a remote and untouched part of the Kariega wilderness, Settlers Drift offers a unique tented safari combined with 5-star luxury. The lodge consists of 9 spacious tented suites, each with stunning views and secluded viewing decks. Gazing down from the decks overlooking the Bushman’s River, it feels as if time has stood still since the last feet to have touched this remote valley were those of the 1820 Settlers as they guided their wagons across the river. The luxuriously appointed and perfectly positioned tented lodge delivers the ultimate guest experience.

9 spacious tented suites (110m²) – each with an opulent bedroom and living area, full bathroom, indoor/outdoor shower, mini-bar and private viewing deck.

WHY CHOOSE KARIEGA SETTLERS DRIFT?

  • Settlers Drift is located on the Bushman’s River and is a great place for fishing.
  • The tented Wellness Centre or Sala is a great place to unwind and relax and offers luxurious treatments and therapies.
  • Enjoy exquisite scenery and enchanting birdlife including the Crowned, Martial and African Fish Eagles.
