Kirkman’s Kamp, situated on an elevated ridge in the game-rich Sabi Sand Nature Reserve provides an incredible safari experience for couples and families alike. The private game reserve is famously known for its prolific Leopard sightings and shared unfenced borders with Kruger National Park. &Beyond has exclusive traversing rights on the 10 500 hectares of wilderness land, making for an incredible opportunity to explore your surroundings without constraints.
Begin your safari trip with a scheduled flight from Johannesburg to Skukuza Airport. Once you arrive at Skukuza Airport, you will be taken to Kirkman’s Kamp by road transfer. As you approach the camp, you will be captivated by its charm, with the original 1920s homestead creating a classical ambiance while overlooking the unspoiled landscape surrounding the Sand River. The camp, rich in history, reflects the elegance of a bygone era with its colonial-style décor and sweeping verandas.
After settling into your luxurious accommodation, embark on the first of your many adventures in the African bushveld with your first safari. Guided by expert andBeyond-trained rangers and trackers, you will explore the vast wilderness of Sabi Sand, renowned for its exceptional game-viewing opportunities. Keep an eye out for the Big Five—lion, leopard, rhinoceros, elephant, and Cape buffalo—as well as a myriad of other wildlife species.
After what is sure to be an exceptional game-viewing experience, return to the camp for a magnificent dinner enjoyed in the boma, on the lawns, or in a candlelit bush setting. The boma, a traditional African enclosure, offers a unique dining experience under the starlit sky, where you can savor gourmet cuisine and share stories of the day's adventures around the campfire.
The next two days will be filled with beautiful morning safaris guided by the expert trackers and rangers. In the open 4x4 safari vehicle, you will have the opportunity to witness incredible wildlife sightings, from graceful giraffes to stealthy predators. Each safari offers a new experience, with the possibility of spotting elusive wildlife.
After the morning drive, enjoy a flavorful breakfast back at the camp. The rest of the day is yours to enjoy at leisure. Wind down for the afternoon at the sparkling swimming pool or indulge in an afternoon drink at Paul’s Pub. Lunch is served on the shady verandas, where you can dine while taking in the panoramic views of the surrounding bushveld.
For those looking for a more adventurous experience, explore Africa on foot with a guided walking safari. This intimate encounter with the wilderness allows you to appreciate the smaller details of the ecosystem, from bird watching to tracking animals and learning about the flora and fauna.
For unforgettable dinners, join the open-air boma after your evening game drive, where you can enjoy a communal dining experience under the stars. For a more intimate setting, request your dinner in the privacy of your own room, where you can savor a delicious meal in seclusion.
Activities available at an additional cost include specialist birding safaris, where you can observe and learn about the diverse avian species of the region. Specialist night drives offer a chance to see nocturnal animals and witness the bushveld's transformation after dark. Private game drives provide a personalized safari experience, tailored to your interests. For families, specialist family safaris ensure that both adults and children have an engaging and educational adventure in the wild.
