Location

&Beyond Ngala Tented Camp lies within the Ngala Private Game Reserve, a 14,700-hectare private concession that forms part of Kruger National Park. Exclusive traversing rights allow for a more intimate safari experience, while the unfenced setting ensures wildlife moves freely throughout the reserve. Positioned along the seasonal Timbavati River, the camp enjoys a peaceful location surrounded by unspoilt wilderness and outstanding game-viewing opportunities.

Accommodation

Designed to bring guests closer to the surrounding wilderness, Ngala Tented Camp's nine tented suites are tucked discreetly beneath a canopy of riverine trees overlooking the seasonal Timbavati River. Raised on wooden platforms, the suites combine the romance of a traditional canvas safari camp with contemporary comforts and thoughtful design. Private decks, shaded salas and outdoor baths provide ample opportunity to pause and soak up the sights and sounds of the bush, while lantern-lit evenings add to the camp's intimate atmosphere. 

Dining

Dining at Ngala Tented Camp is designed to be as memorable as the safari experience itself. Meals are served in a variety of atmospheric locations, whether beneath the stars in the bush, in the camp's lantern-lit dining areas or on the privacy of your own deck accompanied by the sounds of the surrounding wilderness. Pan-African flavours inspire the cuisine, while the ever-changing settings add a real sense of occasion to each meal. As evening falls and the camp glows with lantern light, guests can gather for leisurely dinners under the African sky, reflecting on the day's wildlife encounters in an unforgettable riverside setting.

Facilities

The camp's facilities include elevated guest areas, an outdoor swimming pool, a wellness spa and a fitness centre, all positioned for views over the riverbed below. Safari activities focus on immersive wildlife encounters led by experienced guides, with opportunities to search for the Big Five, track African wild dogs, enjoy guided bush walks and sip sundowners in the wilderness. For a truly memorable experience, guests can also spend a night at the Ngala Treehouse, sleeping beneath the stars in the heart of the reserve.
