Suspend what you know about luxury tented camps. The latest addition to the Thornybush Collection, Saseka Tented Camp, is state-of-the-art, luxurious and imbued with idyllic African wilderness. Saseka is the Tsonga word for Beautiful. Set in the north-eastern portion of the big-5 game rich Thornybush Nature Reserve, situated in the greater Kruger National Park.
Nestled along a curve of the seasonal Monwana River, Saseka Tented Camp stands as one of the most desirable luxury safari destinations within the Greater Kruger Park region.
The word "Saseka" translates to "beautiful" in the local Tsonga language, a fitting name as everything here—from the elegantly designed tented suites to the tranquil ambiance, exceptional cuisine, and attentive service—embodies that description.
The camp features nine luxurious tents, each equipped with a private deck, pool, and outdoor shower, accommodating two guests per suite. For families or small groups, Little Saseka offers a shared lounge and dining area, a communal deck and pool, and a private safari vehicle.
The lodge offers various facilities and services, including babysitting, a bar, bush breakfasts (weather permitting), a deck, game drives, a lounge, mobile coverage, riverbed dinners (weather permitting), a spa, wake-up calls, and Wi-Fi access.
Thornybush and Sabi Sand Nature Reserves share an unfenced boundary with Kruger National Park, creating one of the richest areas for native wildlife in Southern Africa.
With the Big Five freely roaming under the expansive skies of the Greater Kruger Park, guests enjoy consistent and exhilarating encounters with these iconic animals. Twice-daily game drives, guided bush walks, or even relaxing at the lodge provide incredible opportunities to experience the wildlife.
The variety of wildlife in this region is truly remarkable, ranging from giraffes and zebras to hippos, hyenas, wild dogs, antelope, and hundreds of bird species. Skilled guides and trackers, who possess deep knowledge of the bush and an innate ability to find the action, will bring you close to it all in open-air safari vehicles.
For special rates and deals, the inclusive drinks policy may vary.

Luxury South Africa Tour
I inquired into a South African safari tour. I asked two questions, is this a private tour and what are the available dates in May. The first question wasn't answered and the itinerary presented was for "May 2025" but had February dates. When I asked for clarification on the timeline and the dates, there was no response (over 3 days now). I would expect a better response for a luxury tour.

Anja at Safari.com was a great partner to work with!
Working with Anja at Safari.com was great. She was able to work some magic and got us a few nights at the safari lodge we really wanted, Ngoma. Unfortunately, our flight from the USA to South Africa was canceled and we were rebooked a day later but Anja was great about making sure our lodge and the transports knew about the change in plans and made sure we got to our trip as soon as we could. She was a great partner to have and communicated quickly whenever we reached out. I would highly recommend using her when planning a trip to Africa!
