Shindzela is a rustic tented safari camp, set within the greater Kruger National Park, South Africa. Here, we offer you an authentic wildlife safari, in an unfenced wilderness environment. Safari activities are conducted within a private concession area in the Timbavati Nature Reserve, part of the Greater Kruger National Park. AccommodationWe have no power in camp: instead we use solar power, gas and candles. The camp accommodates just 12 guests, and offers walking safaris, and both day and night game drives in open 4 wheel drive vehicles. The camp has an informal, relaxed atmosphere, and is alive with warm African hospitality. Shindzela is a simple but comfortable bush camp. Accommodation is in twin bed safari canvas tents, set on wooden platforms. Each tent has a wooden entrance door, adjustable canvas flaps for windows, and mesh to keep insects out. Tents are equipped with a solar light, all bedding, towels and a torch. Separate, shared ablutions are built from reeds, thatch and wood. Each “bathroom” features a shower with running hot and cold water and a modern flush toilet. Walking SafariAt Shindzela, if you have an interest in walking safaris, you are able to participate in a specialized wildlife walking safari, where you can explore the African wilderness on foot. Our walking safaris are led by armed and experienced walking safari guides. We offer you a true walking safari in a “Big Five” game viewing area. All safari activities are conducted in the early mornings and late afternoons. Your safari begins at dawn, and you return to camp mid morning. Spend the rest of the day relaxing in camp. In the afternoon, depending on the animal movements in the area, your guide may suggest a game drive and short walk, followed by sundowners and a night safari game drive. Our safari timetable is generally planned around the movements of the game in the area – this allows us to be flexible, and to maximize your safari experience. TimbavatiShindzela offers game drive safaris and walking safaris, and can accommodate your preference of activity. The Timbavati Private Game Reserve, South Africa, is home to a myriad of mammal species, including Africa’s “Big Five” animals (lion, leopard, rhino, buffalo and elephant). Other species of game that you may encounter whilst on safari include hyena, jackal, giraffe, hippo, wild dog, zebra, kudu and impala, to mention just a few. There are over 350 bird species recorded in the area. The Reserve is open to the Kruger National Park, providing animals with a vast expanse of wilderness in which to roam, free of fences. We have deliberately decided to keep the camp undeveloped, so as to better blend in to the environment, and offer guests an undisturbed wilderness experience. Join us for an untamed African safari.
