Reviews from previous Kwafubesi Tented Safari Camp guests
“Our last weekend of an extended 6 week trip to SA. I wanted to get away from Johannesburg and the Kwafubesi tented camp is close enough – and well thought out. We had an excellent stay. Tristan, Margaret and Johannes and Johannes looked after us so well. The game drives were great, food lovely, and having only 8 or 10 people meant the whole experience was in a great atmosphere,” wrote African Explorer on their TripAdvisor page.
Elmar Van Onselen added; “We visited Kwafubesi Tented Safari Camp on 7 March 2020. We chose Kwafubesi as it only has 5 tents and are thus more intimate. Camp, hospitality, food, game drives and everything else was amazing! Would definitely return soon.”
“A magnificent experience, excellent food, memorable game drives, close up to animals because they are not skittish from being hunted. I’ve seen many zebra before, but never so close as if you could just reach out and touch them. And never so close that you could hear the crunch of the bones at the lion kill, hear them breathe even and look them straight in the eye! Sleeping in a tent, as luxurious as an en-suite hotel room, yet right out in the bush, where you have only the songs of birds, frogs and crickets, was just magnificent. The quiet of the bush, with all the luxury of a luxury lodge. Highly recommended,” said angymooi.
