I looked for a long time for a special place to celebrate my 60th birthday - and how glad I am that I settled on Tswalu! It is a magical place, made so by the unexpected beauty of the land and by the amazing service of all who work there. I could not have wished for anything better! Thank you... More

Our experience at the tsalu Kalahari Reserve, and specifically at the tarkuni Lodge was absolutely amazing. From the time we arrived at the airstrip, we were treated like royalty. The setting at Tswalu is quite exceptional and very special. The work that is being done in the reserve to restore the area to the original habitat and preserve the environment... More

Surely one is supposed to tick places off one's bucket list and not add them back on as a top prioirity yet again? We have just returned from 5 nights in this magical area of South Africa and have fallen in love with it! I can't see how how any less time can possibly do it justice and we could... More

Have just returned from 4 night stay at Tswalu, the last game park stay of a 16day SA trip. We chose each area for its game diversity, according to its surrounding countryside. Tswalu has succeeded beautifully in its efforts to preserve what is a magical part of Africa. Not rich with game, but there is so much more to appreciate... More

We chose Tswalu as a destination for our 6 night family safari holiday on the strength of a personal recommendation. Amazingly our expectations (which were already high) were surpassed at every level. The key things that make Tswalu so special are: The people - It seemed that from the moment we arrived each member of staff was dedicated to making... More

We had four of the most magical days relaxing in fabulous accommodation, eating delicious food with highly knowledgable rangers and trackers treating us to amazing viewings in stunning surroundings. A ride in the desert on responsive, well loved horses was the icing on the cake. Nothing was ever to much trouble for any of the staff who made us feel... More

Tswalu is a gem. Not only is it one of the most remarkable conservation projects, it is the ideal destination to travel with or without the family. We have two small boys (5 & 6) and often worry about going o luxurious destinations with them lest they disturb the other guests. At Tswalu there is no need to worry. For... More

Well-informed Rangers, beautiful landscape, highly exclusive and private reserve. Magnificent food by world-class chefs. Everyone there is extremely nice and easy to get along with. Wild animals walk right up to the patios during the day (Nyala, warthog, etc.). There is an abundance of game. No Elephant, crocs or hippo - they have everything else indigenous to that part of...
