Overview of a suite / lodge and a pool at Garonga Safari Camp, South Africa
Whether you are on your honeymoon, first-time safari or a family looking for some real African adventure, the Garonga Safari Camp at the Makalali Private Game Reserve in South Africa should be top on your list! Located in the Makalali Private Reserve of the Kruger National Park, you will have 27,000 hectares (60,000 acres) of wilderness to enjoy. As it is only shared by three small safari lodges, your wildlife experience will be genuine, secluded and away from the crowd, which is something really special these days.
Despite being able to spot the Big 5, the Makalali Reserve is carrying on some incredible work with the Wild Dog and Black Rhino expansion projects, coordinated by the Endangered Wildlife Trust (EWT) as part of on-going efforts to save the species from extinction. This week we received the wonderful news that there are some Wild Dogs pups, which is so thrilling and such a wonderful result for the incredible work they are doing.
