Kapama Private Game Reserve

Reminiscent of an East African safari camp, the Buffalo Camp at the scenic Kapama Game Reserve in South Africa offers guests an unforgettable African bush experience. Kapama's unique Buffalo Camp is ideally suited to those who wish to discover the bush without compromising on comfort.

Ten luxury canvas tents, each accommodating a maximum of two guests, nestle on stilts amongst the canopies of ancient trees. Each of the en-suite tents at the Buffalo Camp is interconnected with wooden walkways, which run high above the Buffalo bed.

The entertainment facilities at the Buffalo Camp, which include lounge, dining room and boma, are surrounded by an indigenous garden.  A peaceful swimming pool lies tucked away and provides the perfect spot to while away idle moments between morning and evening game drives. Bush walks, and exciting elephant back safaris are also available to guests staying at the Buffalo Camp.

Each tent has all the comforts of electricity, bathroom, writing table, wardrobe, suitcase stand, safe and tea & coffee facilities. The bush comes alive with the sounds of calls of lion and hyena. Lanterns, rather than electric lights, glow at night under the trees, creating a special ambience unique to the camp.

Each spacious room at the Kapama River Lodge features a full en-suite bathroom and a terrace with uninterrupted views into the Big 5 game reserve.

The Kapama River Lodge features 40 spacious air-conditioned suites, with modern yet distinctly African furnishings and log beam ceilings under a golden thatch. Guests are invited to step onto their private balcony with an iced drink from the mini bar and relax looking lazily into the bush for animals that may pass. The Bathrooms are en-suite with his and hers basins, bath and shower, complimentary toiletries and lotions and fluffy white towels.
