Spread evenly, in a long line along the N'waswitsontso River, are secluded family cottages. Part of Talamati is also a private facility, only allowing residents access to the camp. Talamati Bushveld Camp is within close proximity to a larger rest camp, with guests being allowed the use of the larger camp's amenities and shops. The Xitsonga word Talamati translates as 'lots of water, ironic when considering the river is actually mostly dry. The clay soil in the riverbed traps reservoirs of underground water, and tributaries flowing into the lush vegetation. The camp itself is located in an open valley, maximising game viewing opportunities for both grazers and their ever-present predators.
• Cottages have one-bedroom with 2 single beds and a double sleeper couch in the lounge area. The cottages has a bathroom, kitchen and ceiling fan. The open verandah has a seating area.
• Guest cottages are made up of two-bedrooms, including a double sleeper couch in the lounge area. Some cottages have multiple bathrooms and ceiling fans. The kitchen has a gas stove, refrigerator, sink, cooking utensils, crockery and cutlery. Not all the cottages have a verandah.
Talamati Camp offers adventure in the form of safari game drives, all under the supervision of well informed and keen professional field guides. Important to note: children under the age of six years old are not permitted on the safari game vehicle.
Facilities at the camp include: Information at the reception area, public telephones, a mini-shop at reception which provides wood and phone cards, but no food such as meat, electrical points for appliances in the rooms, communal boma (braai, barbecue area) in camp, Muzandzeni and Nhlanguleni Picnic areas, and a bird hide in the camp, and individual boma areas for each accommodation unit.

Quick and friendly service
We always struggle to make reservations especially since we book for people with disabilities. Heleen is our "go to person" since she is always friendly, helpful and quick.

This Travel Firm is Ready for You!
We have completed the preliminary reservations with this amazing travel firm. Thank God they exist! We would never have been able to figure out how to put the pieces of our trip to AFRICA together without them. They are patient, caring, detailed, and responsive to communications…something you expect, but do not always receive when service is involved. Connect with them via email if you are even thinking about going to Africa. Cheers!

First time to Cape Town
We are a group of ten friends traveling together to Cape Town for the first time. Safari.com was our top choice for travel agents. Leché and Tracy were incredibly helpful and prompt with our questions and bookings. The trip to Sanbona Wildlife Reserve was fantastic, and everything went off without a hitch. We highly recommend Safari.com for your safari plans!

Safari booking
Fadiel was very prompt in responding to my emails. Despite a double booking for our Safari - not his fault - everything worked out well in the end.
