Facilities

Catering

Tsakane Safari Camp focuses on nutritious and traditional meals, most of which are uniquely prepared on an open fire in front of our Guests. Early morning coffee, tea and confectionary is served on game drives and complemented by a three course breakfast. Afternoon refreshments are followed by a three course dinner in our open-air boma. On request a table for two may be set under a tree and lit by an oil lantern in the privacy of your chalet. Conversations are enjoyed and friendships are cemented around our small bar.

Additional Services

We like to view Tsakane Safari Camp as an experience rather than a destination. For this reason we provide numerous other services such as transfers to and from the camp, day excursions through the Kruger National Park and to other interesting nearby locations such as the scenic eastern highlands, the tropical Tzaneen catchments area and many other local places of interest. Tsakane also provides adventurous and participative personalised overland camping safaris to our Waterberg facility, Mozambique, Namibia and Botswana. The overland safaris are conducted in a fully equipped 4x4 vehicle and off-road trailer. These excursions are limited to a maximum of four Guests.
