Londolozi Founders Camp

Discover the magic of river life at Londolozi Founders Camp, along the banks of the Sand River. Londolozi is one of South Africa’s original private game reserves and the name, translated from a Zulu word, means "Protector of all Living Things".  This also reflects the relationship between the lodge and the surrounding nature - with progressive conservation management and community involvement, Londolozi is truly a pillar of global ecotourism.  In 1993, Londolozi became the first game reserve in the world to be accorded with the prestigious Relais & Chateaux status. 

Located in the heart of Sabi Sand Game Reserve, Londolozi shares an unfenced border to the greater Kruger National Park. Guests traverse an area of 34 000 acres of the best Big Five game viewing in Africa! One of the unique aspects at Londolozi is its chronicles of the "resident" leopards, known as The Leopards of Londolozi.   Londolozi is also recognised as the home of the photographic safari and specialises in the big cats (leopard, cheetah and lion). An incredible and diverse scenery, coupled with a multitude of wildlife sets the stage for unsurpassed photography.  The photographic studio at Londolozi is very popular for guests who want to produce their own creative work, and qualified instructors are on hand to assist.

Shaded by ancient matumi trees, the laid back yet classically styled lodge is a haven for families embarking on an African luxury safari adventure.  Although Londolozi Founders Camp especially caters to family safaris, they have gone out their way to provide an exclusive oasis of luxury for couples and honeymooners as well.  This ‘bushveld Bohemia’ exudes a contemporary safari feel with natural colours, materials and even handmade cushions.

The unique Yoga Deck, suspended high in a 500-year old Ebony tree, provides sanctuary for those seeking tranquility and a chance to reconnect with the soul. Daily classes are included in your stay at Londolozi Founders Camp.
