Explore the Wild: Discover the Beauty of the Kruger National Park
Established in 2009 as a mere walking trails camp, consisting out of small bow tents, Shindzela has grown into the wonderful tented product that is before you. Situated within the Timbavati Private Nature Reserve in the Greater Kruger National Park in South Africa, Shindzela offers guests an authentic African wildlife experience.
The eco-friendly (solar-powered) camp is the perfect place where one can feel part of the bush. We are passionate about conservation and our staff strive to make guests feel right at home. Our aim is to provide an enjoyable and fulfilling experience in an exceptional wilderness area.
Shindzela, named after the honey badger in the Shangaan language, is an unfenced tented camp within the world-renowned Timbavati Private Game Reserve forming part of the Greater Kruger National Park in South Africa.
Our safari style tents are situated under thatch (grass roof) structures and can be made up in either twin or double-bedded accommodation. Enjoy your morning coffee on your wooden deck or freshen up in your semi open en-suite bathroom (shower, W.C. and hand-basin)
We strive to offer an affordable wildlife safari during which you can explore the African wilderness on game drives in open 4×4 vehicles (don’t forget your sunscreen) and/or on foot during a walking safari. Our safari activities are conducted by professional, knowledgeable and fully qualified guides.
Safari Tent with Double or Twin bed, private bathroom with shower, flush toilet and hand basin.Rates include 3 meals per day, tea/coffee and 2 safari activities per day & unlimited Wi-Fi, tent turn down, medical assistance. (please advise your room configuration)
Shindzela offers walking trails of about 2.5-3 hours in the morning instead of doing a game drive. Each walking trail is lead by a qualified lead and back up trails guide. The walking safaris are mainly focused on nature as a whole, focusing on fauna and flora as well as animal tracks, insects, bird life and the occasional encounter with one of the Big five. No children under the age of 16 years are allowed on these trails.
Shindzela offers morning and afternoon/evening game drives of about 3-3.5 hours. Shindzela conducts their safaris in 4×4 Landrover vehicles (seating 8 guests per vehicle max) and guests are taken out by professional qualified field guides. Prior to each safari activity guests are given a thorough safety briefing before embarking on their safari adventure.
We also offer a range of activities and excursions, including guided wildlife safaris, walking safaris, and boat cruises. So come and explore the beauty of South Africa with us, and experience the magic of the African wilderness in comfort and style!
