Camp Details

The lovingly renovated farmhouse lies on the first property bought by the Tompkins family when they started Samara in 1997. Combining colonial comforts and modern day luxuries with a rustic and welcoming feel, Karoo Lodge is the perfect place to relax and allow the tranquillity of the Karoo to envelop you – on the wide verandah in summer or by the cosy fire in winter.

WHY CHOOSE KAROO LODGE?

  • Samara is a hub of conservation and animal reintroduction efforts in the Great Karoo basin.
  • Samara is one of few private game reserves where walking forms an integral part of the safari experience.
  • Samara’s raised tented platform on the Milk River provides a breathtaking romantic wilderness experience.
  • Samara is passionate about educating the next generation of conservationists and opening their eyes to the wonders of the wild.
