Kwafubesi Tented Safari Camp

Kwafubesi Tented Safari Camp

10/10 Excellent
"This is the most beautiful stay Iā€™ve experienced. The location is secluded from the main lodge so you feel the extra peace and quiet. That staff are incredibly helpful and friendy. The food? Chef Johannes deserves his flowers, it was incredible. I highly recommend and will definitely be back"

Mabula Game Lodge

8/10 Good
"The reserve was stunning. Saw plenty of wildlife despite relatively low game density. The food was great considering the size of the buffet. The property was nice but maybe too modern for a true safari experience. I was most disappointed that it wasnā€™t as family friendly as advertised. The child center was under construction, the pools were not heated, there were no activities for young children nor was there food catered towards young children. "

Frequently asked questions

What is the best area to stay in Rooiberg?

These reserves are typically large, fenced areas of natural bushveld, often featuring a central lodge or a collection of private villas. They are designed for wildlife viewing, with guided game drives being a primary activity. The landscape is characterised by acacia trees, rocky outcrops, and open plains, providing a natural habitat for various animals.

For couples seeking a romantic and exclusive escape, staying within a private game reserve is ideal. Many lodges offer secluded suites with private plunge pools, outdoor showers, and dedicated services, allowing for an intimate connection with nature. You'll find opportunities for guided bush walks, sundowners in scenic spots, and gourmet dining under the stars.

When is the best time to go to Rooiberg?
