About Thanda Tented Camp.

THANDA TENTED CAMP

Many guests explain that they feel the beat of the wilderness at Thanda Tented Camp which offers a traditional safari experience. It is camping but it’s very glamorous, with beautifully appointed, en-suite canvas-walled rooms, comfortable beds, and inside and outside showers. Thanda Tented Camp has a central living area for relaxing and dining, with a swimming pool and boma where guests sit around the fire at night or enjoy a bush braai. All in an evocative wilderness environment complemented with flickering firelight and lanterns illuminating the paths to the tents at night. Guests are escorted by guards to their safari tents in the evening. It’s off the grid living with solar power and a backup generator. Internet access is available in the central living areas, whereas there is internet coverage everywhere at Thanda Safari’s other three luxury safari lodges, Thanda Safari Lodge, Villa iZulu, and The Royal Residences. Delicious cuisine is served at all four Thanda Safari lodges, and mealtimes are awaited with anticipation as the chefs create exciting dishes for all palates and dietary requirements.
