Londolozi Tree Camp

Tree Camp

It was on the banks of the Sand River, in the heart of the Kruger National Park, that two friends set up camp in the 1930s. This was the beginning of a great family saga which, in the 1970s, gave birth to a superb conservation project, Londolozi. The reserve offers 5 exclusive and intimate lodges, members of Relais & Châteaux, including Tree Camp, which allows you to experience Kruger in royal style. Londolozi is a magnificent private reserve acquired in 1926 in the heart of the famous Sabi Sand reserve, which was transformed into a conservation area in the 1970s and developed lodges of the utmost refinement, recognised by Relais & Châteaux. Tree Camp offers 6 splendid suites with private viewing decks perched in the trees. The interior decoration is of a rare elegance, subtly blending modernity with tribal art in harmonies of brown and white. To complete this lodge, each of the 6 suites features a private plunge pool, ideal for refreshing oneself after a day on safari. Children from 16 years of age.

ETHICS

The owners of Londolozi (which means «to protect» in Zulu) have implemented a sustainable development model based on the balanced management of the land by intelligently using its resources and integrating its visitors and inhabitants. As an example, the reserve is now spared from drought.
