About Ngala Tented Camp

Ngala Tented Camp offers a more intimate, sophisticated alternative to the main lodge, nestled along the banks of the Timbavati River in the Ngala Private Game Reserve. The camp consists of luxurious, canvas-walled suites on raised wooden platforms, blending seamlessly into the riverine landscape. This camp emphasizes a boutique experience, focusing on exclusivity and an immersive connection with the river's wild occupants. The landscape here provides a serene backdrop for wildlife viewing, with the sound of the river accompanying guests during their stay. Guests can enjoy private, personalized game drives and walks, emphasizing a slow-paced exploration of the bush. It is designed for those who appreciate design-forward, luxurious accommodation that doesn't sacrifice the 'tented' spirit of a classic safari.
