Kapama Buffalo Camp is located inside Kapama Game Reserve that lies on a huge expanse of land between the Drakensburg mountains and the Kruger National Park. Built on the theme of East African Safari camp of old, Buffalo Camp offers visitors a unique and intimate experience of the African bush.

Eight luxury canvas tents, each accommodating two guests, are set on stilts amongst the canopies of ancient trees which line a seasonal river. Each of the en suite tents are inter-connected with wooden walkways, which run high above a sandy riverbed. Landscaped by mother nature herself, the entertainment facilities which include lounge, dinning room and Boma are surrounded by an indigenous garden. Each tent features twin beds with en suite showers. The rooms are luxuriously decorated with mosquito nets. Since the camp accommodates only 16 guests, special attention is devoted to personalised service.

Kapama Buffalo Camp: Game activities

The name comes from Kapama, a Swazi king, whose tribe inhabited and hunted the northern Drakensberg mountain region around Marieskop back in the 1880's. Buffalo Camp offers visitors a unique and intimate experience of the African bush. It is ideal for those who wish to discover the bush without compromising on comfort. Set in an indigenous garden, the accommodation facilities, thatched bar, dining-room and campfire area contribute to the intimate ambience of the camp. At night, lanterns, rather than electric lights, glow under the canopy of treetops. The camp's refreshing swimming pool offers respite from the heat of the African summer or the day's adventures may be shared in the cool open-air bar with its spectacular view over the river bed.
