Discover the beauty of nThambo Tree Camp

15/07/2024

nThamboTree Camp provides an intimate and authentic safari experience. Nestled in the heart of the Klaserie Private Nature Reserve with unfenced boundaries to the Kruger, it presents abundant wildlife sightings.

The camp's chalets are constructed from canvas, elevated wooden platforms, and thatch roofs. Placed at tree level, each chalet features small balconies for guests to relish game watching from the comfort of their rooms. With a capacity for just 10 guests, a personalized and unforgettable safari experience is ensured.

The staff at nThambo Tree Camp caters to guests' requirements and goes above and beyond to mark special occasions. They frequently arrange bush dinners and breakfasts, particularly during festive periods or for groups of friends traveling together. Guests seeking a distinctive experience can pre arrange these setups.

Normally, guests partake in a morning game drive as part of the standard itinerary. However, for those interested, a bush walk can be organized after breakfast. Guided by qualified rangers with specialized training in approaching dangerous game, Walking Safaris offer a chance to observe larger mammals on foot while discovering the local flora. Tracking animals on foot during a bush walk not only delivers an immersive encounter with Africa's sights and sounds but also enriches understanding of various species' tracks in the bush.

The afternoon itinerary often includes a second game drive, where the changing light offers unique photographic opportunities and the chance to witness nocturnal animals beginning their nightly activities. Sundowners in picturesque locations are a highlight, allowing guests to enjoy a refreshing drink as the sun sets over the pristine wilderness of the Klaserie Private Nature Reserve.

In addition to game drives and bush walks, nThambo Tree Camp also offers opportunities for bird watching and stargazing. The Klaserie Private Nature Reserve is home to an impressive variety of bird species, making it a haven for bird enthusiasts. As night falls, the camp's remote location, free from urban light pollution, provides an unparalleled view of the Southern Hemisphere's starry sky. Guided by knowledgeable staff, guests can learn about constellations and celestial phenomena, adding another layer to their safari experience.

For those seeking relaxation, the camp's communal areas include a cozy lounge and a refreshing pool, perfect for cooling off during the heat of the day. Meals at nThamboTree Camp are a culinary delight, featuring a fusion of local and international cuisine prepared with fresh, seasonal ingredients. Dining often takes place under the stars, with the sounds of the African bush providing a natural soundtrack.

Whether it's the thrill of tracking wildlife on foot, the serene beauty of a sunset over the bushveld, or the warm hospitality of the staff, nThambo Tree Camp offers a truly memorable safari experience.
