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.

Highlights

  • Set alongside the Monwana River - an important source of water in the reserve, Saseka offers luxury accommodation at its best and exceptional game viewing. 
  • The day starts as dawn breaks over the bushveld. After an early morning wake-up call, coffee, tea and rusks are served on the main deck. 
  • The afternoon game drive is preceded by high tea and extends into the evening to view seldom seen nocturnal species by torchlight.

You Should Know

  • Children from 12 years of age are welcome
  • All children under the age of 16 must be accompanied by a responsible adult during game drives.
  • Children under 16 years of age are not permitted on bush walks.

The Details

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 WiFi access.

Experiences

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, we provide our guests with consistent and exhilarating encounters with these iconic animals during twice-daily game drives, guided bush walks, or even from the comfort of your safari lodge.

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. Our skilled guide-and-tracker teams, who possess deep knowledge of the bush and an innate ability to find the action, will bring you close to it all in our open-air safari vehicles.

Aquilia Safari trip
Re: Safari from Cape Town to Aquilia. Fadiel was very helpful and organised our trip for us. We were picked up by Joe, who was our driver for the day. Joe is born and raised in Cape Town. He was prompt and was very friendly and informative. There was a good choice of food at Aquilia and had choices for my husband too who is Coeliac.

Mel is friendly and patient
I would usually book my trips myself. Lucky for me I sent off an enquiry to Safari.com and received Mel's wonderful help. Mel responded quickly and made me feel comfortable with Safari.com. organising my trip. Later on, when I realised my dates didn't work with the rest of my trip, Mel gave me my options and costings and rebooked for me. Mel was very patient and friendly. I wouldn't hesitate to use Mel again.

Planning Our Family African Safari Experience
Planning our first trip to Africa was a really big deal for us. After careful review of numerous safari planners, we selected safari.com and worked with Nicole Van der Merwe. There's a lot of parts in putting together such a vacation including ground transfers, hotels, activities, and flights. At each step we had numerous questions and Nicole patiently worked through these with professionalism and care to her customers. I would recommend Nicole and safari.com for anyone planning a trip to South Africa.
