About Timbavati
The Timbavati Private Nature Reserve shares an unfenced boundary, and its wildlife, with the Kruger National Park, and it is legendary for one thing above all: white lions, born here naturally thanks to a rare gene carried by its prides. Sightings of leopard, elephant and buffalo are everyday currency. Its camps are deliberately small and traditional, with walking safaris and night drives led by some of the Lowveld's most experienced guides.
