Plains Camp @ Rhino Walking Safaris

About the lodge

An overview of Plains Camp @ Rhino Walking Safaris.

Plains Camp offers 4 twin comfortably furnished African explorer style tents, en suite with indoor shower, hot running water and all the comforts of home with the African Wilderness on your doorstep.

Highlights

  • Experience 12,000 hectares of unspoiled private wilderness in the heart of the Kruger National Park.
  • Authentic pioneer-style camp, built from canvas and wood.
  • Enjoy the drama of Africa up close on a unique walking safari.
  • Easily combined with an authentic sleep-out experience.

You Should Know

  • We regret that no children under the age of 12 can be accommodated at Plains Camp unless a family or group has booked exclusive use of the camp.
  • Children aged 12 years or older are charged adult rates at Plains Camp.
  • As triples are not available at Plains Camp, a third child would require their own room at the adult rate plus a single supplement.

The Details

Plains Camp is not only distinctive in its design—with only four East African Safari-style tents—but also in the way things are done. It is an established trail with walks of up to four hours, allowing you to immerse your senses in a hands-on experience, not just a mid-morning stroll after breakfast.

What sets it apart is the combination of the wealth of knowledge and experience of the camp's highly qualified trail guides, the unique elegance of the furnishings and treasured antiques, the quality of food and service, and the presence of a cool plunge pool in which to enjoy a cocktail overlooking the plain between walks.

And for those looking for something extra special, there is the added attraction of an optional night spent out under the stars at the sleep-out decks, under the care of a qualified guide. We are delighted to showcase this one-of-a-kind blend of style and Kruger's pristine wilderness, catering to supporters of ethical and responsible environmental tourism.

Price Includes

The price includes accommodation, meals (brunch, high tea, and dinner), teas and coffees, and two activities per day. Each guest will receive a complimentary glass of wine, local beer, cider, or soft drink during the late afternoon/evening game drive.

Transfers between Rhino Post Safari Lodge and Plains Camp at scheduled times are also included. Plains Camp @ Rhino Walking Safaris offers morning and afternoon walk/game drive experiences (for guests aged 12 years and older).

"Sara was absolutely amazing to work with. She created five different itinerary options for us to choose from based on the criteria and budget I provided for our family trip to Kruger National Park. What I appreciated most was how willing she was to connect over WhatsApp to really understand what we were looking for. After our call, she worked incredibly fast and sent all the options the very next day. Every itinerary included exactly what we asked for and stayed within our budget. Her service, attention to detail, and genuine care made the entire process stress-free. I honestly didn’t even know where to start planning this trip, so her help was enormous. Thanks to Sara, not only did we find the perfect safari package, but we also booked our flights as well. Thank you, Sara, for the excellent service and support — we truly appreciate everything you did for us!"
