Kambaku is a small, intimate camp which accommodates just sixteen guests in a relaxed, informal
and homely atmosphere. This rustic lodge overlooks a waterhole which is visited regularly by Timbavati's big and small game. It is situated in an excellent game viewing area and the game drive
vehicles stay in radio contact to maximise sightings of interest.
|
|
Lanterns for light, eco-friendly battery power for fans and gas geysers for hot water are just some
of the specifics that ensure an original luxurious rustic bush experience. Each of the seven thatched
chalets is en-suite with both shower and bath. The rooms offer a combination of family suites, doubles
and twins to satisfy everyone's specific requirements. Four poster beds, white linen and draped
mosquito nets ensure absolute romance.

Guided safaris depart just after sunrise each day in open game drive vehicles. Tracking Africa's big
game, the evening safari leaves after you have enjoyed afternoon tea and continues into the night
after sundowners at a panoramic viewpoint. The evening holds a sense of anticipation as the rare and
elusive nocturnal species begin their night activities. A midmorning bush walk with an experienced and
armed ranger is also included.

Meals are typical "home-cooking" feasts that will delight even the most discerning taste
buds. All meals are included in the rate.
"We've been overwhelmed by your hospitality. You've worked so hard to make our stay
special. The food has been splendid, the safaris - great fun, and the animals - WOW! It's
exceeded our expectations. Thank you!"
