Kruger National Park, South Africa
About This Property
The Experience
Umlani Bushcamp is a rustic, off-grid camp in the Timbavati Private Nature Reserve, part of the unfenced Greater Kruger. Guests sleep in reed-and-thatch huts with open-air showers and no electricity, lit at night by paraffin lanterns, with device charging in the main area. A treehouse over a waterhole is available for a night sleeping out. Meals are taken together around the boma, and days are built around game drives with trackers and guided walking safaris. Families are welcome, with family huts and childcare on request.
