PRIVATE SAFARIS VEHICLE

This is the perfect opportunity to really explore the Reserve. You can choose to spend the entire day on a game drive, stopping when and where you want. This is certainly the ultimate for bird spotting and great for avid photographers.
GAME WALKS
There is No Better Way of Getting Closer to Nature than on Foot
With all the eating and sitting around, why not exert a little energy after breakfast and take a bush walk with your armed ranger…
Game Walks through the bush take place just after breakfast, on request. Your knowledgeable ranger guides you through the the smaller aspects of the bush, as well as the fauna and flora of the Timbavati Nature Reserve. This is the best way of experiencing the “finer” aspects of the bushveld. You will be in awe as you discover animal tracks, dung, insects, trees and birds and how they all come together in an intrinsic ecological web of life.
Please note that for safety reasons, children under 16 years of age are not permitted on the walks at Kings Camp Game Reserve.
