Reserve Information
The Timbavati Game Reserve reserve covers approximately 60 000 hectares of pristine African bush adjacent to the world-famous Greater Kruger National Park. All fences between the Timbavati, Kruger, Klaserie and Umbabat have been removed for years now, and wildlife moves freely between areas as it once did.
Kings Camp, located in the northern section of the Timbavati Reserve, offers visitors outstanding wildlife and birdlife sightings year-round, including the "Big 5" and famed Timbavati's "White Lions".

The two honeymoon suites are unique; they have the same decor style and luxurious facilities as the above but with more space and a completely private verandah with a private plunge pool.
Cuisine and Wine
From candle-lit dinners in the dining room to traditional boma experiences under African night skies. Enjoy breakfast on a dry riverbed in the shade of trees, or have a romantic dinner for two on your private verandah. There is dinner under the stars out in the wild Timbavati bush for the more adventurous.
All meals are accompanied by an extensive and eclectic wine list featuring local and international varieties. From crisp whites to full-bodied reds, there is something for everyone's palate. So enjoy the best South African cuisine and wine at Kings Camp!
