  • Your African Safari Experience

    If “love of the quiet” is what you are after then you will want to stay at Tanda Tula for your African safari experience. The only thing you will hear is the heartbeat of the Timbavati Reserve which reverberates with the sounds of the wild. What is special about Tanda Tula is the 12 luxurious East African style tents that are tucked into this 20,000 acres of bushveld. Each tent has its own timber deck from which you can see the activity on the dry riverbed.

    The Timbavati Private Nature Reserve is one of the largest, untouched reserves in the world. It boasts animal viewing and tracking beyond compare. Your safari guides will reveal the wonders of the wilderness while on your twice daily game drives (in modern, open sided vehicles) or bush walks that take you even closer to nature. The feel of the Timbavati is rugged, but you will have every comfort afforded to you while staying at Tanda Tula for your South African safari experience.

    With en suite bathrooms, Victorian bathtubs and outdoor showers, private viewing decks and spacious, well appointed tents, Tanda Tula has been revered as the best tented camp in South Africa. It has earned its reputation with its superlative staff, guides and trackers who will tend to your every need while on your safari in Africa.

    In the evenings sundowners are served in the lounge overlooking the water hole. While you stir your beverages the animals stir below nuzzling each other for the rights to the pool. Lead Wood, Jackalberry and Knob Thorn trees frame the scene below as the sun sets on another day of your South African safari.
    Dinner is served around a blazing fire in the boma and the heartbeat turns to laughter and stories of the day passed and the new day to come.
