AfriCamps at White Elephant Safaris in Pongola Game Reserve, KwaZulu-Natal is the perfect destination for a self-catering family getaway where land-based and water-based guided safaris departing right from the camp are the highlights of your stay. Located in the world’s second-oldest private reserve and the oldest in Africa, 12 self-catering boutique glamping tents boast scenic views of the majestic Lebombo Mountains and Lake Jozini in the distance. Guests can enjoy a comfortable stay along with all the thrills of an established private game reserve where buffalo, elephant, rhino, leopard, hyena, giraffe, wildebeest, zebra, warthog, 12 different antelope species, and over 350 bird species roam the plains and grace the skies.

Our custom-made tents are fully furnished and equipped with a private kitchen, lounge, en-suite bathroom (with private shower and toilet), two bedrooms sleeping up to five guests in two extra-length queen-size beds, and an extra single bunk bed, an indoor fireplace, air-conditioning, and a wooden deck. There is an outdoor wood-fired hot tub next to each tent that is the perfect place to listen to the birdsongs or relax under the stars at night.
