Buffalo Camp at Kapama Private Game Reserve
Capturing the romance of Africa
An elegant camp of stilted tent suites – this is Big Five safari in style.
Constructed from natural wood and stone, the luxurious tented accommodation of the Buffalo Camp has been designed to combine the best of the game reserve's traditional past with the finest modern amenities. Situated on the riverbank and surrounded by gardens of aloe and euphorbia, each of the ten spacious suites is perched upon stilted wooden decks and the camp is designed to emulate traditional African safari camps of days long past.
Wooden walkways meander between the main lodge area and the suites, meaning that you can see into the canopy of the surrounding trees, and in the dry season, you can see antelope using the river course as they search for new grazing grounds. After a day of exploration, sink into a sofa and enjoy the superb views, enjoy a drink from the Buffalo Bar, or take a dip in the elevated rim-flow pool.

The blend of contemporary and traditional carries into the cuisine, with all meals served à la carte. Enjoy breakfast and lunch below a canopy of thatch. At the Buffalo Bar, you can rest in-between game drives with a refreshing cocktail or settle down for the night with a glass of South African wine.
