Camp Details

4.3 / 53 ratings

Safari camps shouldn’t just be beautiful. They should be designed to immerse us in nature and feed our senses. Newly rearchitected Tanda Tula Safari Camp takes full advantage of its position on the Nhlaralumi River in South Africa’s Timbavati Private Nature Reserve to create intimate guest experiences across the breath of the camp.

Nine hybrid canvas and glass suites open to an endlessly entertaining but incredibly peaceful bushveld setting. A secluded hide. An inviting library. An open-air bar. Places to gather. Or to be alone.

Expect breathtaking natural light. Walls that disappear. Shades and textures that reflect your wild surroundings. The deep aubergine of a purple pod cluster leaf. Wonderfully textured wood. The green shades of the silver cluster leaf trees. The intricate patterns in traditional Tsonga design. Contemporary local art. Fine linens. The pulse of the wild. And it’s deep calm.

Each suite is positioned overlooking the stunning Nhlaralumi riverbed with sweeping views of the bush. The entire front of the suite is a combination of sliding glass doors and canvas sliding walls, allowing the light to flood in. Outdoor covered decks and private plunge pools, ideal for dining and relaxing, with sunken bench seating – bringing you closer to nature.
