Londolozi Tree Camp is secluded in dense riverine forest on the banks of the Sand River, in the northern section of the Londolozi Private Game Reserve.
Londolozi Tree Camp is so named because the dense riverine forest environment and most notably the ancient Ebony Tree shading the camp. Tree Camp has six lavish suites elevated 70 feet above the Sand River.
The Sabi Sand is a private game reserve, situated west of The Kruger National Park, in the north-east of South Africa. It spans 65,000 hectares and is renowned for providing some of the best game viewing in Africa. While it is not technically part of the Kruger, the Sabi Sand shares a 50km long unfenced border with the national park, ensuring that animals can roam freely between the two reserves.
The game viewing in nothing short of sensational. The reserve has a dense concentration of wildlife, including over 330 plant species, 45 fish species, 30 amphibian species, 110 reptile species, 500 bird species and 145 mammal species! It is home to the Big Five and is probably the best place in the world to get up close and personal with the elusive leopard. Elephant, lion, rhino, buffalo, cheetah, giraffe, zebra and a vast variety of antelope make up the numbers and compliment your experience!

FOOD & WINE:
At Londolozi, superb cuisine is considered an essential part of the experience and a vital component of our philosophy. Much of the day revolves around specifically crafted culinary delights – freshly baked muffins at sunrise, morning morsels on the game drive, a fortifying breakfast, lunch and indulgent high tea before the next game drive and its sundowner treats and, the grand finale, a traditional fireside banquet or a private dinner.
The choice of ingredients reflects our efforts to establish right relations with the planet. Every ingredient is chosen with care, favouring home grown organic produce, free range game and herbs from our kitchen garden to create dishes that are irresistibly delicious and healthy. Our selection seafood is guided by the Southern African Sustainable Seafood Initiative and the number of imported ingredients is kept to a minimum.
Our recipes are a source of great pride as many have been handed down through the Varty family or were created in the Londolozi kitchen by Executive Chef Jaco Myberg. Jaco’s signature style, arises from exploring the continental fusion of Indian, Malay, Dutch, African, Portuguese and British influences in local South African dishes to create exquisite culinary experiences.
