탕갈라 사파리 캠프

Tangala Safari Camp was everything I hoped it would be. Laid-back, authentic, and deeply connected to the landscape around it. Nestled right in the heart of the Thornybush reserve, this place offers that classic safari feel without any of the pretense. What really made the stay stand out was the camp staff. Every single person we met was kind, attentive, and clearly loved being part of this wild corner of the world. Their warmth and care made all the difference. One of the most memorable moments came when a huge thunderstorm rolled through. Being in the tents during that storm was unforgettable. The sound of the rain on canvas, the flashes of lightning cracking across the bushveld, the deep rumble of thunder. It was thrilling and honestly one of the best ways to feel just how alive the African bush really is. Tangala has a way of slowing you down in the best possible sense. I’m grateful for the time I spent there and would happily return.

This has been a great experience! The level of service, the guides, the game drives, everything fantastic. I highly recommend Tangala.

After Cape Town, we flew up to the Kruger National Park area to stay at Tangala Camp. The employees and managers at Tangala, particularly, the safari guides Reason and Louis, were awesome! The managers, Johan and Madeleine, were also super nice and very accommodating. We saw a bunch of wild animals (painted wolves, hyena, leopard, lions, etc), and the driver/spotters knew everything about the animals and answered everyone’s questions. The camp is small with ＜20 people staying there, so we made friends with the other visitors in our car. The houses are really neat; they’re thatch roof style cabins that were fun to stay in. There are also various antelope that wander through the camp, which was fun to see. It was also my (now) fiancé and I’s engagement trip and first big trip out of the country, and Tangala was a great experience for new travelers!!

Me and my family love Tangala Safari Camp. They have nice clean room with delicious meal. The staffs also amazing, kind and friendly. The game reserve are two times a day with great tracker and driver. We managed to see the big five! We can also relaxing at the pool and see the wild animals passing by. Also it's easy to captured birds from the lodge. In overall, it was great experience and love South Africa! Hope to be back soon👍🙂

The main win was that we saw all the animals, nearly all on the first day already. So if this is your objective for visiting a safari lodge, your chances are very high. The host couple were genuinely friendly, helpful and down to earth, a plus for the camp with their authenticity. I appreciated that they were putting in solar panels for the camp. The camp itself is near some water, so you can sit by the pool in the afternoon with a book or a beer and peacefully watch the animals come and go. I enjoyed our comfortably large tented room and listening to the animals in the cold of the night. The camp is not overly luxurious, but homely and comfortable. The meals were a big positive, well prepared and with a willingness to provide something special for any vegetarians. The guiding was a little so-so in comparison with some of the other camps we visited, although we did see Leopard, Lions (a lot), Rhinos. I would definitely recommend Tangala for a 3 night visit.

From our late arrival to the last minute in Tangala Johan and Madeleine were so graceful, courteous and attentive. We enjoyed every aspect of the camp including the cozy and spacious tents, comfortable bed and pillows; delicious meals, friendly attention from the staff, great living/social room, etc. The"babies" (hot water bags) was such a thoughtful detail that helped us all to stay warm at night and during early morning safari drives. Robert and Matimba, our guides, were wonderful, friendly and fun. We learned a lot from them. We saw 4 of the big 5 on the first day! From then on our experiences kept getting better and better, even witnessing wildlife interactions between elephants, wild dogs, nyalas, and hyenas which we will never forget. The views from the camp to the water hole provided great opportunities for viewing more wildlife. Overall a fantastic stay and very grateful to Tangala Safari Camp for everything!
