    Wonderful open camp in the Timbavati Reserve. Excellent service, great sightings, and incredible staff. Got to see Leopards twice in 3 days!

    Really great bushcamp with fantastic food and awesome safari! Do not miss out to book the treehouse by the water hole. You will not sleep much but it will be well worth it!

    And a little background to easier understand my point of view when reading my review. I work as a travel and adventure photographer and travel about 6 months every year. I have visited over 75 countries and appreciate real people, real places and real adventures.

    We spent 3 nights here as a family of four over the Easter holidays and it was a truly unforgettable experience. Loved every minute and hope to return one day

    We stayed at Umlani for 4 nights. It was a truly wonderful experience, from the moment we arrived to the moment we left. We saw and learned about tigers, lions, leopards, hyenas, elephants, rhinos, impala and myriad of bird and even insects.

    The depth of knowledge of the trackers and rangers was extraordinary, and their enthusiasm and passion for the bush infectious. We were constantly amazed at the team's ability to show us everything we had hoped to see. Our many questions were always answered clearly and in great detail.

    On the final day, our ranger, Shadrick, and tracker, Iffram, tracked and found two male lions pursuing a leopard; it was an absolutely unforgettable experience. Before the trip, I was concerned that the interaction with the wildlife would be commercial or sanitised. However, this was not the case. The team were very respectful of the animals and we felt mostly unnoticed when seeing them.

    On a bush walk our ranger, Shadrick, introduced us to the local fauna, explaining their medicinal uses and introduced our nostrils to a whole new variety of aromas!

    This is a very remote camp in an already remote region, nonetheless the food was very good and bountiful. The homemade bread was delicious!
    The accommodation is rustic but very comfortable. The beds were good and fully enclosed by mosquito nets.

    The camps location really adds to the experience with nothing but the sound of nature to hear and brilliant star-filled night skies.

    We used the tree house one night, leaving at 8pm after dinner and being picked up around 6am. Being an overnight, animals are hard to spot but some can be seen and we awoke to a few hyenas! The treehouse has mosquito nets meaning you can see the stars from your bed.
