Maseke’s Chacma Bush Camp : Videos and Images of the Refurb
Chacma Bush Camp, the latest camp to emerge from the Sun Destinations portfolio, is our very own elephant paradise located in the lesser-explored and rugged Maseke Game Reserve. You’ve probably become quite familiar with the camp, and no doubt have seen the wealth wildlife and landscape images. Towards the end of last year we planned […]
Chacma Lion Cubs Play with Barn Owl and No One Gives a Hoot
It’s not uncommon to witness our youngsters pushing boundaries and engaging in playful antics that, more often than not, ends in tears. The foolish behaviour of our species is no different to the array of wildlife that makes up our animal kingdom. Playtime is healthy for development and is more than just fun – even if it […]
Festive Week in Pics : 2017 is a Wrap!

Our sightings have included the full pride of boys, and then […]

This is the time of year to indulge in the solitude of the bushveld and observe the natural life that continues to unfold despite […]
Week in Pics : Landscapes, Predators and Plains Game
This week we’ve enjoyed a slew of interesting photos emerging from our camps and lodges. The thunderstorms are rolling in, which is a clear indicator that summer is approaching. With the new season rapidly encroaching, the skies above beginning to shift; bringing in 3 dimensional cloud cover and backgrounds ideal for wildlife photography. Needless to say, […]
Week in Pics : Arrivals and Departures
This week we see the arrival of a new lodge in Botswana, and the departure of the arid season.

Our team in the Klaserie have been upskilling themselves when it comes to creating safari cocktails, and our […]
