Kirkman's Kamp

Historical Family Lodge in the Sabi Sand

Kirkman's Kamp - Sabi Sands Game Reserve

Kirkmans Safari! Slip into the leisurely pace of yesteryear at the charming and historic Kirkman’s Kamp. At Kirkman's Kamp, the days are designed to thrill you with intimate wildlife encounters and the nights to spoil you with the romance of Africa.

This immaculate camp was named after W. Harry Kirkman, one of the founders of the Sabi Sand Game Reserve who transitioned from being a hunter to conservationist and became a ranger in the Kruger National Park from 1933. It reflects the down-to-earth spirit of pioneer days, yet offers contemporary amenities for total comfort and excellent sightings.

Each of the twelve spacious guest cottages (including a family unit) feature ensuite showers and private verandas with full views of the river and untouched bush that is home to an abundance of the most sought-after safari favourites. This is the perfect get-away for tranquil withdrawal.

Kirkman's Kamp Activities & Family Safari

FAMILY TRAVEL KIRKMAN'S KAMP

When available, booking an exclusive use safari vehicle means that game drives can be tailored for the shorter attention span of younger children, leaving and coming back to the lodge at any time. A swimming pool is available for families to enjoy.

The lodge is also able to accommodate a limited number of triple rooms. This means that, should parents wish to share a room with younger children, an additional bed will be set up in the parents’ room for children 16 years or younger.

When not using an exclusive use vehicle, game drives are available to children aged twelve years and older. Children aged six to twelve are permitted on game drives at the lodge manager’s discretion. While children younger than six cannot participate in game drives, childminders can be arranged during game drives and meal times at an additional cost.

 

MORNING & AFTERNOON ACTIVITIES

Set out in an open 4x4 safari vehicle in the company of a ranger and tracker team, who will attempt to track your favourite animals. The Sabi Sand Game Reserve is well known for its leopard sightings and you may well spot one of these elusive cats resting after a successful night hunt. You will stop for refreshments at a scenic spot during your drive.

&Beyond’s professionally trained guides will ask you about your favourite wildlife and will do their best to ensure that your preferences are met, whether it is tracking a particular species or spending more time enjoying each sighting and getting to know the habits of the animals. They will also tell you about the vegetation of the region and will explain the behaviour of the animals that you come across. In some cases, the guides will be able to identify individual animals and let you know about their history and habits.
