No fences, no time limits
The oldest private game reserve in the Sabi Sands, offering 33,000 acres of Big Five wilderness with no time limits on sightings and minimal vehicle density.
MalaMala is the oldest private game reserve in South Africa, with the Rattray family holding the concession since 1964. The reserve carved out the original photographic-safari template that the rest of Sabi Sand now follows.
Three camps: Main, Sable, and Rattray’s. Sit on the same 33,000-acre concession on the Sand River, sharing eight kilometres of unfenced border with Kruger.
MalaMala occupies a singular position in the Sabi Sands: 13,200 hectares with 20 kilometres of Sand River frontage, and a 12-mile unfenced boundary with the Kruger along its eastern edge. A private traversing area larger than most reserves in the system, with one of the highest predator densities in southern Africa.
Three camps share the concession: MalaMala Camp from R27,600 per person per night, Sable Camp from R30,150 and Rattray's from R42,800, all fully inclusive. There is no time limit on sightings: your ranger stays with a leopard for as long as the encounter warrants.
MalaMala Rattrays Camp is the epitome of classic style and good taste.
The luxurious MalaMala-Sable Camp epitomizes the design and sensual opulence of this area's colonial history - a well-appointed and comfortable luxury camp in the Mala Mala Game Reserve.
MalaMala Camp is a haven of understated luxury combining warm comfort and superb service with unrivalled views of the Sand River and surrounding bushveld.
