Overview
NThambo Tree Camp is ideal for an intimate, authentic Kruger safari.

Each chalet is at eye level with the trees, and there are small balconies from where guests can watch the wildlife from the comfort of their rooms.

Sandra was just amazing in helping us organize our Honeymoon. We knew vey little about South Africa and she helped us out in defining the WHOLE trip, not only the safari part of it. It was just perfect! She would reply any day, any time, just giving us the confidence and support we needed. Defnatly recommending to friends and other travellers.

Don’t hesitate to use.
Sandra from Traipsing Africa's Safaris was amazing. She provided a few options and differing price points and gave some helpful suggestions. Compared to the other quotes her was amazing. We got to go to a small luxury lodge for the same or less than others quoted for good but not as great options. Communication was perfect. The drivers to and from the lodge were such good fun. Sandra also provided some helpful info for the rest of our trip despite us organising this ourselves. Absolutely brilliant and would 100% use her again, Robin

Very smooth
Booked 3 days/2 nights at the Black Rhino Game lodge through Traipsing Africa and Sandra. Everything from request to payment and transport to and from JNB went very smoothly. Our stay at the Black Rhino was amazing, with wonderful game drives, nice accomodation, good service and good food. Would absolutely recommend!
