Tanda Tula Camp
Tanda Tula is a wonderful independent safari camp, operated by its friendly owners situated in the game-rich area of The Timbavati, bordering Kruger National Park
Set within the private Timbavati Nature Reserve on the edge of the Kruger National Park, Tanda Tula Safari Camp offers an unhurried safari experience where guests are encouraged to slow down and connect with the wilderness. Surrounded by open landscapes and abundant wildlife, every game drive reveals unforgettable encounters, from the Big Five to the smaller wonders of the bush.
Led by exceptional guides and trackers, including two of South Africa's few Master Trackers, each safari is shaped by remarkable knowledge, intuition, and a deep understanding of the natural world.
The camp features nine spacious canvas and glass suites overlooking the Nhlaralumi River. Designed with natural textures, contemporary South African art, and influences from Tsonga culture, the suites blend understated luxury with a strong sense of place. Two family suites provide generous accommodation with private plunge pools.
Inviting shared spaces, including the dining deck, fire pit, library, and secluded hide, create opportunities to relax between game drives, while the camp's commitment to solar power and water wise practices ensures a lighter footprint on this remarkable landscape.
