South Africa Accommodations: Londolozi Founders Camp

Londolozi Founders Camp ~ Vintage 5 Camp

Londolozi Private Game Reserve is a 14 000-hectare (34 580 acres) exclusive safari destination situated in the heart of the famous Sabi Sand Game Reserve on the western border of the Kruger National Park in South Africa. Meaning "protector of all living things" in Zulu, Londolozi is renowned for its progressive ecotourism practices, and is one of the most sought-after safari destinations in Africa.

Londolozi was established as a family bush camp in 1926 by the Varty and Taylor families, whose friendship and collaboration continues today. Londolozi has earned an international reputation for its unmatched African wildlife experience, personalized service, superb safari accommodation and excellent relationships with its neighboring communities - commended as such by Nelson Mandela, who visited the Reserve shortly after his release from prison.

Londolozi Founders Camp:

Charming and intimate, Founder's Camp comprises five chalets and one suite, all with private verandas affording magical views of the Sand River and lush riverine bush. En-suite bathrooms with glass walls offer tantalizing views of the African wilderness.

Founders Camp comprises comfortable sitting areas, which lead to an elevated wooden walkway ending in a relaxing game viewing deck - perfect for watching herds of waterbuck grazing on the riverbank. Each chalet and suite features a beautiful glass-walled bathroom with enticing wilderness views. A sparkling swimming pool is contoured to complement the curves of the Sand River.

Delicious Pan-African cuisine is served in the boma (outdoor dining area), or on the dining deck overlooking the river. Londolozi is renowned for wonderful bush banqueting in scenic wilderness settings.
