We saw everything up close and personal. Couldn't believe how close we were to lions, leopards, elephants, cape buffalo; rhinos, giraffes, hippos, etc. Indeed when we left to return... More

As a family of four, we spent three nights at Londelozi, at Founders and Varty Camp. The rooms at both camps were spacious, beautifully decorated, and kept immaculate, with at least three visits by housekeeping per day. All staff, from the camp manager, assigned ranger and tracker, housekeeping and restaurant personnel, was fantastic, sensitive to our every need and Georgia... More

I spent two nights at Varty Camp and it was a very special experience. My room was lovely but that is not what makes this place so amazing. The staff here are fantastic, friendly and great company. It is not a stuffy formal environment, which I prefer, and the service is first class. The public area is really what makes... More

We initially were looking to book in Pioneer Camp, but it was not available. We were concerned as Varty camp seemed to be geared towards families and large groups, and we wanted something more private. As it turned out, we got there in the afternoon and a very large group was scheduled to leave the next morning. Once the group... More
