MalaMala Game Reserve consistently produces the most exciting wildlife experience this side of the equator! The Safari Industry’s blueprint to the luxury photographic safari, MalaMala has been custodian of this massive thriving tract of land since 1927.
MalaMala Game Reserve is one of the largest private Big Five game reserve in South Africa. Comprising 13 300 ha (33 000 acres), MalaMala shares a 19 km (12 mile) unfenced border with the world-renowned Kruger National Park, and lies strategically sandwiched between the National Park and the Sabi Sand Reserve.
Every aspect of MalaMala Camp and Sable Camp is designed to appreciate and enjoy the view of the surrounding wilds. Pathways wind their way along the perimeter of the camp to reveal individual ochre colored units tucked into the greenery which flanks the Sand River. Massive trees and rolling green lawns are filled with birdsong, with the occasional antelope or elephant which seeks the succulence of greenery.
Mashatu Lodge is located at the heart of the private Mashatu Game Reserve, within the Northern Tuli Game Reserve. The Lodge is positioned near the Majale River, a green haven surrounded on all sides by an arid landscape. Guests can relax in the shade of the camp’s woodland, lounging beside the pool or exploring the fascinating displays at the camp’s Discovery Room. Mashatu Lodge is also home to a waterhole, with an underground photographic hide positioned so that guests can view elephants splashing, drinking and squirting water up close.

San Camp is only open during Botswana’s dry season (April 1st – October 15th), when the landscape is most striking.
Khwai River Lodge opened its doors in 1971, and was one of the first lodges to promote safaris through an environmentally-friendly lens.

Half-hidden by the shelter of leadwood and fig trees, Belmond Khwai River Lodge is a hub of luxury that overlooks the sweeping floodplains of the Moremi Game Reserve. Each of the comfortable tents stands on a raised wooden platform, with private decks, chairs and hammocks that provide stunning views of the Khwai River.
