Hotel Description
Unwind, Sleep Deeply, Be Yourself
Garonga Safari Camp and Little Garonga are exclusive camps set in the 22’000 ha (60’000 acres) Greater Makalali Private Nature Reserve west of the Kruger National Park
Garonga Safari Camp has 6 luxury tents – with private decks and spectacular views overlooking a dry riverbed. Each tent sleeps two with large, draped beds, indoor and outdoor showers, and a hammock.

The Makalali Conservancy is a private Big Five nature reserve outside of the Kruger National Park, South Africa.
Morning and sunset game drives offer visitors the opportunity to encounter the incredible game that call this conservancy “home”. Sit back and relax as experienced guides track down incredible wildlife encounters.
Garonga’s holistic philosophy is to offer a safari for the soul, an unhurried and intimate wildlife encounter, a time to reflect and find inspiration in nature.
Tented Rooms – The accommodation at Garonga reflects the surrounding bush. It offers a real “home away from home” experience, where service is professional and friendly, yet unobtrusive.
Each of the six en-suite luxury units is sculpted out of rough-plastered walls and overarching canvas tents. The tents are situated overlooking a dry riverbed, and have a wooden deck complete with hammock that commands spectacular views. The rooms are light, airy and spacious with large, draped beds and indoor/outdoor showers.
Cuisine – The food at Garonga Safari Camp is a fusion of the resident chef’s exceptional culinary skills and there is a varied selection of excellent South African wines.
