INFOS ABOUT NGALA & LONDOLOZI

NGALA

Ngala, meaning "lion" in Shangaan, is the only private safari reserve in the world-famous Kruger National Park. Ngala Private Game Reserve is host to two exclusive properties - classic Ngala Game Lodge in the north and contemporary Ngala Tented Safari Camp in the south. Ngala has exclusive traversing rights over 14 780 hectares (36 506 acres) of Kruger's two million hectares (4 940 000 acres), one of the richest and most strategically important wildlife areas on the continent.

When you enter Ngala Game Lodge, you encounter a world capturing the romance and elegant traditions of a bygone time, the era of classic safari. The lodge is set on the banks of the Mapone riverbed and features antique-filled interiors and a timeless, unhurried atmosphere. We were thrilled to open our first tented safari camp in South Africa, Ngala Tented Safari Camp, set on the banks of the great Timbavati river. This absolutely >luxurious and lavish new camp acts as a satellite camp to Ngala Game Lodge, about a 45 minute drive away.

At Ngala, you can experience remarkably close encounters with breeding herds of elephant and buffalo. See black and white rhino, giraffe and a host of antelope, along with the great cats and occasionally, wild dog.

At sunset, sip sundowners at the waterhole and experience life in Africa as described by legendary author and philosopher, Sir Laurens van der Post:

"All Africa was in that moment for me. Yes, the whole cast of the first natural, primordial, legitimate theatre of Africa seemed gathered there to make its final curtsy in the limelight of the sunset hour and receive twilight applause before the night dropped its final curtain."

Ngala has even more to offer. It is the scene of one of Africa's most innovative conservation partnership agreements and has joined forces with the natinonal park authorities (Kruger National Park) and thenon-governmental South African Nature Trust Foundation. Under this partnership, a percentage of all profits from Ngala flow into the National Parks Trust to promote conservation projects.

* Both the lodge and the tented camp are members of Small Luxury Hotels of the World

You can enjoy excellent game viewing encounters on our twice daily game drives in open Land Rovers. Ngala offer both off-road and night game drives. Ngala offers prime sightings of big five game as well as numerous other species. On exciting night drives you will see nocturnal animals, adding a dramatic dimension to your safari.

Theirs knowledgeable guides and trackers will lead you on guided nature walks through the heart of the bush, revealing some of nature's most closely guarded secrets. You will have a chance to experience the African bushveld close-up as you tread past intriguing plants and spy more elusive, smaller creatures such as birds, reptiles, insects and tiny mammals.

It is possible to fill every minute of your safari with a range of exciting activities including stargazing, stunning bird-watching opportunities, swimming in our sparkling pools, fairytale-like moonlit bush dinners and spectacular bush sundowners. Ngala Game Lodge offers unique activities for children.

At Ngala Tented Safari Camp, mouth-watering al fresco dinners are served on the impressive Timbavati riverbed, which is dry for most of the year. Enchanting islands of reeds are a bird-watcher's paradise. All activities are at no extra charge to guests.

LONDOLOZI

Londolozi offers four private camps and one lodge - Bateleur Camp (previously known as Main Camp), Tree Camp, Safari Lodge and Bush Camps, Founders and Pioneer. Each has a riverside location.

Activities at Londolozi centre around game viewing drives in open vehicles that traverse an area of some 14 000 hectares (34 580 acres) in search of wildlife, including nocturnal species viewed after sunset. You may request the sole use of a Land Rover for game viewing, (subject to availability.)

Armed rangers will lead you on bush walks - the quintessential wilderness experience. The Shangaan are renowned trackers of wildlife - a skill honed to perfection at Londolozi. Shangaan people are in the majority in the southern Lowveld and most of the staff at Londolozi come from this cultural group.

Your game viewing experience is complemented by many other memorable >activities such as:
* moonlit bush dinners
* private bush breakfasts
* guided stargazing trips
* bird-watching
* port served on the airstrip - usually after dinner on a clear night*
* visits to the staff village encompassing the crèche, school, adult learning centre, clinic and craft centre (available to guests at Tree, Founders, Pioneer and Bateleur Camp) * bush presentations in orientation centre (available to guests at Tree,Founders, Pioneer and Bateleur Camp)

*If you are wondering why we suggest you sit on the airstrip - all will become clear when you are driven there on a cloudless night. What you will see is a panorama of breathtaking proportions. Since the airstrip is on a slope, the ground seems to slip away from you into a massive sky full of shimmering constellations.
