There are over 40 different species of mammals including the 'Big 5' – elephant, lion, leopard, African buffalo, and rhinos. Added to this is more than 350 bird species.

Guests have the opportunity to observe these magnificent creatures in the natural wild on twice-daily guided game drives, nature walks and once-in-a-lifetime elephant encounters.

Kapama’s four luxury lodges each have a charm of their own – Buffalo Camp delights with its old-world feel, Southern Camp offers warmth and hospitality, River Lodge is festive year-round, and Karula is breathtakingly elegantly. For the more adventurous guests can choose to spend a night in one of Kapamas romantic sleep-outs.

Kapama has a private aeroplane and airstrip to welcome guests travelling directly in from Johannesburg or Cape Town, as well as a courtesy transfer service from Eastgate Airport.

The largest of the Kapama Private Game Reserve Camps, River Lodge’s wide, open spaces and airy design is a constant reminder that you’re sleeping under the African sky. Besides the luxury five-star accommodation, River Lodge is more festive and social than the smaller, quieter camps, which is why young couples, and groups of friends are often among Kapamas guests. Escape to a place away from time and indulge in one of the finest safari lodges near the Kruger National Park.
