Week in Pictures: One little lion cub and scenes of safari

It’s back to the bush we go with this week’s edition of the Week in Pictures! Transported back to the nooks and crannies of Kruger and Botswana that we love so much, this collection of photographs reflects the beauty of the wild and leaves you longing for a safari! Some sad news on the Klaserie […]

The Week in Pictures: The birds, the bees, and the big things.

With such a diverse range of camps in various areas of pristine wilderness, its not surprising that the photography coming out of these areas each week is reliably great. The Okavango Delta, Chobe National Park, the Sabi Sand, and the Klaserie Private Nature Reserve have produced some fantastic footage lately, and photographers Em Gatland, Kevin MacLaughlin, […]

It all comes down to excellent guides! A review of our Klaserie camps.

Our very frequent guests, Jochen and Mira, return again and again to nThambo Tree Camp, Africa on Foot, and nDzuti Safari Camp. What is it that makes these camps so special for them, and why do they leave with happy hearts and a renewed appreciation for the Lowveld every time? Jochen’s latest message to us held the […]

Week in Pictures: All sorts of everything wild!

This week we’ve got a roundup of incredible images from Botswana and from Kruger where our exceptional camps nestle in their wild homes. Surrounded by the African bush, everyday is brimming with opportunity to witness something phenomenal. It is the new season of rain, and the heat is rising for summer, and with the new […]

Week in Pictures: All the cats, the dogs, and rhinos in perfect light

Word from the camps this week comes packed with enviable tales of life in the bush. Kevin MacLaughlin has more from home-base at Africa on Foot: A spotted bush snake was found at Africa on Foot just behind one of the guest’s rooms. It spends most of its time in trees in search of lizards and tree frogs, […]

The Week in Pictures: You want me to do what? And other safari fun!

  At Africa on Foot every morning begins with a walk on the Klaserie soil. Led by 2 guides with rifles, guests trek through the grassy woodlands discovering what animals have left behind the night before. Tracks and signs of the bush tell stories of fights in the night, and the territorial ownership of the […]

Dagha-boys doing what they do best: Filmed in the mud at nDzuti dam

The African, or Cape, buffalo is a member of the Big 5 for a reason. Weighing in at 800kg, wielding a superior set of horns, and known to charge without warning, the buffalo is considered the most dangerous animal to encounter on foot. Historically, the Big 5 were known as the 5 most dangerous animals to hunt, and […]

September Safari Sightings at nDzuti

The waterhole in front of nDzuti Safari Camp in the Klaserie sees a variety of visitors, from its nighttime regulars – jackal, civet and hyena – to the influx of diurnal animals, like impalas and baboons. Grey go-away birds, owls, mongooses, and plenty of others are seen in front of the lodge almost daily and there […]

Small things build a great safari at nDzuti

Kingfisher fishing in Klaserie.

On my third day at nDuzti, I sat on the porch watching tree squirrels scurry from trunk to trunk while a hungry hare hoppity-hopped its way across the expansive green lawn in search of nosh. To my left, slow-motion giraffes drank from a waterhole, while their fellow thirst-quenched impala-friends succeeded in restlessly scaring each other […]
