Disconnect and rediscover your connection to Mother Earth in the wild

We loved this unique experience of Glamping in the heart of the bush.

Chairs set up in the river bed with blazing fires for warmth and atmosphere. Heard lions roaring at night. Game is prolific in the area - Giraffe, Zebra, Buffalo, different antelope, Elephants and for those that love the cats we saw 24 lionesses and 1 lion followed by a leopard in 1 day. Hard to beat. Nothing is too much trouble for the staff and the food is delicious and plentiful. Loved every minute. Highly recommend this Seasonal Camp for a once in a lifetime experience.

An untouched dry-riverbed tented camp.

A wild cat crossing. Unfolding of an untamed experience in the African bush. We were there – and you should visit! You can expect to feel the rush of close encounter on daily game drives, experience unpredictable sightings on safari walks, tuck into mouth-watering meals and enjoy camping in comfort like never before.

This camp is probably the best in all of KNP.

Actually... It IS the best in KNP. The staff was so incredibly kind and welcoming. The tents and living space were stunning. The food was brilliant. And the wildlife didn't disappoint. We had a 20 minute leopard sighting with Etienne. Wall to wall fabulous, and I can't wait to return with more guests.

Saw 25 lions and 1 leopard all in one day!

Had such a fabulous time there in early July – saw 25 lions and 1 leopard all in one day. Food superb and location is magical. Go – you won’t regret it. Such a unique concept – loads of animals, great food, outstanding staff, roaring fires – once in a lifetime bush experience.

Rassie van der Dussen

Amazing experience out in the bush.

Great learning & first bush walk! Thank you to the Kruger Untamed team of rangers, trackers & staff. Our country is truly outta this world!

Kyle Botha

What a wonderful experience!

We experienced top-notch game viewing with the assistance of very knowledgeable and entertaining rangers, including sightings of lions, cheetahs, and buffalo. Another highlight was a 2-hour morning bush walk to see birds, plants, and insects as well as learn many interesting facts about the nature around us. At night, hundreds of solar lamps light up the dining area and river bed, and after a delicious meal, one can sit around the fire and listen to the sounds of the bush, what a wonderful experience.
