Ngala, meaning “Lion” in the local Shangaan language, is the only Private Safari Reserve in the world-famous Kruger National Park. Ngala Private Game Reserve is host to two exclusive properties – classic Ngala Game Lodge in the north and contemporary Ngala Tented Safari Camp in the south. When you enter Ngala Game Lodge, you encounter a world capturing the romance and elegant traditions of a bygone time, the era of classic safari. The Lodge is set on the banks of the Mopane riverbed and features antique-filled interiors and a timeless unhurried atmosphere. This is where you’ll find Ngala Tented Safari Camp, this was the first tented Safari Camp. It consists of six spacious tents featuring wooden decks. The chic and modern guest areas overlook the Timbavati riverbed and feature a superb intimate hide. Each spacious tent has an invigorating outdoor shower with mist nozzles as well as a bath mounted on a rough-hewn wood base for pure, indulgent pleasure. All year round giant shady trees form a cool green canopy over this tranquil camp. The irresistible blues of the pool merge with the contours of the riverbank. Surrounded by a timber deck, the pool is a perfect “waterhole” for you to relax and cool off in after a thrilling day on safari. Ngala Tented Safari Camp is ideal for small conferences and exclusive business meetings.
