!Kapama Private Game Reserve - Nature at its best.

The iconic and most dangerous wild animals of Africa – the Big Five – are at home on Kapama, but so too are over 40 other mammal species and 350 different types of birds. Game drives and bush walks offer fascinating encounters with wildlife, but Kapama also offers guests unique African wildlife experiences. Elephant-back safaris through the untamed bush enable you to view game from atop a habituated African elephant. There are also guided personal elephant interactions, where the elephants are so close you can touch them.

It’s not only the wildlife encounters that are superb at Kapama – so, too, are its four diverse luxurious safari lodges. Vibrant River Lodge, breathtaking Kapama Karula, old world Africa Buffalo Camp and fantastical, nature-inspired Southern Camp welcome guests from around the globe to experience wild Africa in sumptuous style.

Start you day with an early wake up call for your morning game drive with your very experienced ranger and have the excitement of not knowing what the day will bring as this is the time when many nocturnal animals are still active from the night before. Return to camp for a beautiful breakfast while over looking the watering hole.

Enjoy the free time after breakfast around the pool reading, sleeping or game watching. Enjoy the beautiful lounge and bar area covered in traditional thatch. Staff are very friendly and extremely helpful and will look after all your needs.

!!!!After afternoon tea there is another game drive with rangers that can answer all your questions about big and small. Watching the sun set overlooking a waterhole or fantastic view with a sun-downer is tradition.
