At one with the wild, they just don't make them like this anymore.

Just a handful of tents blend naturally into the landscape of giants, situated in prime wildlife territories developed through decades of safari experience. Daily explorations reveal remarkable encounters with Africa's magnificent mammals across untouched terrain. Our thoughtfully designed bush camps offer genuine immersion in wild places where few travellers venture—a rare opportunity to experience wilderness in its true form.

LOCATIONS

Set deep in the wild

Our little camps have been located in the beating heart of the action for years, where the wildlife is most concentrated and the game experience is second to none. We raise these camps carefully each season in secluded bush where the carnivores and herbivores alike keep doing their thing all around us. It is very common for our wildlife to be moving through these spaces, testament to the un-intrusive design that we simply disappear into the backdrop.

DESIGN & INTERIORS

Intelligently designed & light of foot

We take great pride in our approach to camp design as we let the environment take centre stage. Each camp is a stylish little nest, woven of sisal, thatch and canvas. Each large, light safari tent is a simple, quiet canvas refuge from the heat and dust of the day. We keep our camps true to their safari values with deep shade, bucket showers and nothing in your way to wilderness.

Our tents were beautifully located under a Kigelia tree with extra bed sites on a platform where we could sleep under the Southern Cross if we wanted to. The guides were professionals and they never got tired of showing and explaining the bush and the wildlife to us. We had tears in our eyes when we had to leave after 5 magic days.
