We had an amazing stay at the Tangala Safari Camp. Especially the kindness of the staff and the Safari Tours (2 x per day included) made our vacation unforgettable. The camp and our room/tent was perfectly clean and the food was very good (e.g. homemade granola for breakfast, different salads and sides for high tea and a 3 course dinner with different meat/fish and vegetables) The camp is perfectly located, with a lot of wildlife around. Different animals are using the waterhole that is just some meters away from the camp and some of the smaller animals also walking around within the camp. A usual day would start at 5:00 with a coffee/tea and the morning Safari at 5:30. After the return at the camp we would usually make use of the pool/enjoying the South African sun. High Tea was served at 15:00 and the second Safari of the day would start at 15:30. The Safari itself was unbelievable. The Guides/Trackers are awesome. We have been able to see the Big 5. After the first Safari, we thought we have seen already everything. However, each of the trips were different and stunning. We saw the animals in there natural environment (e.g. Elephants bathing, lions eating a Zebra, Buffalos taking a mud bath). All-in-all an amazing experience.

Exceptional service in an exceptional location. once you’ve done a safari in a private reserve you will never look back, and this is the best lodge in the best reserve. Made to feel very special, all the staff knew our names from the moment we arrived. Game drives all stunning, good fabulous and nothing was too much trouble. already plotting our return, and this time we will bring friends and family to share it with. Justice and Elvis were the best of hosts on the game drives.

All meals were excellent, the game drives were superb and the personal attention by staff allocated to us was super. However the first haldf we had to share the game drives with another couple - it was far better when we could go on our own later in the stay

We decided on short notice to stay overnight at the Lodge, and left feeling rested and satisfied. The staff were all very friendly and helpful. The dinner was good, and the breakfast was excellent. While there is no Wi-Fi in the rooms, it is available in the restaurant and main building. I would gladly recommend this place at any time for a peaceful and tranquil bush experience.

We felt very special in this beautiful place. The service was outstanding. The pool area was the perfect place after an exhausting safari. Also the view platform is very nice and if you are lucky you can see some animals as well. Plus point: There are three very friendly ostriches in the place. Thanks a lot for a very special time for us. Highly recommended! Dinner was also delicious in a modern and artful Restaurant.

Absolutely loved our time at Little Africa and would have stayed much longer if we could have! The small size of the lodge meant the setting felt very intimate and personalised, and we found each of the staff members a pleasure to deal with. The drivers and tracker for the game drives were engaging and get you amazingly close to the wildlife- we were able to see all of the big 5 within the first 3 drives. The food also deserves a special mention- was home prepared according to personal preference and was delicious!

Simone and Morné are great hosts!! The place is beautiful, rooms are very nice, the garden and all the place is so cozy. We were so greatful for the fire they set outside everyday, there you can meet the other guests and share safari stories. Morné has lots of knowledge of wild life and conversations with him are so delightful and instructive. Simone will give you lots of information before you get there and she´ll take care of you as no one else can, besides she´s an excellent cook, her muffins are the best!! Food there is at a top level. The place is 25 minutes from Orpen gate but the fence of Kruger is right in front of the garden so you can listen to lions and hyenas at night. They organized a game drive for us and it was amazing. We wouldn´t doubt of coming back again!
