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.
Saseka, elegantly positioned on the banks of the Monwana dry-riverbed, which sweeps through the reserve, with a distinct curve in the river being a natural catalyst for the site of the main area. The lodge blends a wonderfully spacious and light, modern look with natural materials and textures, finished with elements reminiscent of a bygone era.
The camp boasts eight elevated Tented Suites, each with a four poster bed draped in mosquito netting, an opulent en-suite bathroom, outdoor shower, stackable glass doors for exceptional views of the bushveld from all rooms, air conditioning, in-room safe, tea and coffee making facilities, and an expansive viewing deck with deck chairs and a private splash pool.
The gorgeous Leadwood Villa boasts two bedrooms that can accommodate up to four adults and two children, a lounge, a dining area where private meals are savored, and a large viewing deck with a splash pool and pool loungers.
The main camp facilities include an expansive deck area with spectacular views of the river, two large fireplaces, a small gift, Wi-Fi access, laundry service and a swimming pool.
Thornybush Game Reserve shares an unfenced border with the Kruger National Park, so the animals move freely between the reserve and park. The Kruger is home to as many as 147 mammal species, including the Big Five and other incredible species such as giraffe, wild dogs, cheetah and hyena. For bird lovers, there are more than 500 species or birds recorded in the park.
Saseka is perfect for those travelers who enjoy a personalized service, ultra-luxurious accommodation and a more exclusive safari experience.

We booked one of the most beautiful trips we've ever had through Safari.com. The service was excellent and uncomplicated. They catered to special requests, booked additional flights, and the accommodation (Simbavati River Lodge) was simply unbelievably beautiful. Our expectations were far exceeded, and we can only recommend Safari.com. We will definitely book our next vacation through Safari.com and recommend it to our friends. Many thanks, Nelia & Catherine!
