We chose South Africa for our honeymoon, and Kapama Southern Camp turned it into an unforgettable experience. The biggest highlight was the amazing staff, who made us feel truly cared for with outstanding service, excellent food, and wonderful drinks. Seeing all of the Big Five was the perfect bonus to an already magical stay.

Toda a experiência foi maravilhosa

Todos os funcionários eram simpáticos e solícitos. Nossos guias de Safari se esforçaram ao máximo e encontramos todos os big five. Comida maravilhosa e equipe limpava o quarto duas vezes por dia.

We spent one night at Southern Camp during our honeymoon — far too short, as we immediately fell in love with the atmosphere and the warm hospitality. The team surprised us with a beautiful honeymoon setup during dinner, which made the evening incredibly special. We were genuinely touched. The food was absolutely fantastic, and the gluten-free options on both days were outstanding — especially the muffins at afternoon tea and the bread at dinner and breakfast. Truly the best gluten-free experience I’ve ever had anywhere. Service throughout the lodge was exceptional, and the staff were simply wonderful. Our room was extremely spacious, beautifully designed, and came with a private pool and a large bathtub. Overall, it’s a beautiful property, though it has more of a hotel feel rather than a classic lodge atmosphere — which can be perfect depending on what you’re looking for. Regarding the game drives, the reserve is beautiful and our driver–spotter team was very friendly, but the drives were unfortunately not as successful as the ones we had at Buffalo Camp. We mostly stayed on the main roads, and it felt like there was less focus on tracking or actively searching for animals. We also didn’t have a sunset stop on the evening drive, which we missed, as these moments are usually one of the highlights of a safari. Apart from the common sightings — zebras, impalas and giraffes — we didn’t see much wildlife, which was disappointing since the drives are such an essential part of the experience. Overall, we still enjoyed the drives, and the hot water bottles and blankets were wonderful given the cold weather. A few small suggestions: • With the unusually cold temperatures during our stay, it would have been great if the room had been pre-warmed (even just via air-conditioning). I understand that energy saving might be a topic, but considering the cost of the stay, it would be a great improvement — especially since such a large room takes quite some time to heat up when it’s only 15°C outside. • Since our previous days at Buffalo Camp had been rainy and also offered limited sightings, we asked if we could join an additional afternoon drive. Unfortunately, the price offered (2,000+ ZAR per person) was extremely high, so we had to decline. Given the overall cost of the stay, a more accommodating solution would have meant a lot. Despite these points, the wonderful staff, the fantastic food, and the beautiful room made our stay truly enjoyable. We would love to return f

We have travelled to many countries in the world and stayed at many luxurious lodgings but Kapama Southern Camp far exceeds those ! Outstanding customer service and accommodation. We saw the Big 5 by our second safari and our guide and tracker - Carlos and Petrus were so kind, knowledgeable, professional and fun - whilst every thing was perfect at Kapama, these guys took it to the next level
