 Kapama Private Game Reserve – Southern Camp 

Modern and luxurious

Kapama Southern Camp is perfect for families looking for a modern and sophisticated safari.

Kapama Southern Camp offers family-friendly accommodation within Kapama Private Game Reserve. The camp is imbued with an air of elegance. Situated to the south of the reserve, the vibe here is friendly and relaxed with a tranquil ambience throughout. It’s the most modern of Kapama’s camps and lodges – think light and airy spaces warmed by sandstone colours and contemporary African prints.

Home to lion, leopard, elephant, buffalo, giraffe, zebra and hyena the reserve covers an area of 15,000 hectares. Game drives take place in open vehicles every morning and afternoon when the animals are most active. The bird life is prolific, and a bush walk is a good way of seeing them. Between safaris, feel tucked away in the bush as you catch some sun by the pool or enjoy the spa facilities at sister property, Kapama Karula.

Why we love Kapama Private Game Reserve – Southern Camp

  • To kick-start your early wake-up call for the morning game drive, each room has a Lavazza coffee machine

  • Guests have access to the beautiful spa facilities at sister camp – Kapama Karula

  • Educational and interactive, children will be kept busy with their own dedicated safari programme

  • The open-sided dining area is where the chefs create sumptuous meals with dinner normally served under the stars in the boma

Retreat to the luxurious spa at a sister property just 10 minutes away. One of the most gorgeous spas you’ll find at any safari lodge, Kapama Karula Luxury Spa has a fitness centre, steam room and a menu of individual treatments and half- and full-day packages to choose from with premium brands.

Join twice-daily game drives in search of the Big Five or take a guided nature walk to learn more about the ecosystem, flora and fauna. Guests can also visit the Hoedspruit Centre for Endangered Species.

Leaving all gadgets behind, children will be kept busy learning how to track animals and how to identify dung. Children over the age of 6, at the discretion of the guide, can join the Big Five safaris whilst kids under 6 will be taken on a bumble drive around the camp, in search of smaller animals and birds. The Family Villas have their own pool, ideal for splashing around between activities.

At the discretion of the ranger, children between the ages of 6 and 12 are allowed on the game drives and the guided bush walks.
