Africa is magical.

Her strength, her beauty, her vulnerability.

She is in a league of her own, and once you connect with her, you will fall in love, for life.

 

Safari – the Swahili word meaning ‘long journey’ – is an experience sought after by most travelers, and certainly a journey not easily forgotten.

Rising with the sun, long dusty roads, the thrill of the chase, looking a fiercesome creature into its eyes, or just quietly sharing its space, sipping a cold beer at sunset, and snuggling around the campfire at night. A safari makes you feel alive to the core, each moment to be enjoyed to the fullest.

The Camp is set in the bush of the Greater Kruger National Park, a joint venture between the Kruger National Park and the Associated Neighbouring Private Nature Reserves. Together they have an area of more than 20.000.000 Ha (or more than 20.000 Km²), under joint conservation.

At Sausage Tree Safari Camp we would like you to connect not only with the bush, but also with its people. We would like to invite you into our home, and introduce you to all the wonders of nature, big and small. At Sausage Tree Safari Camp we would like to share our passion with you, crack that cold beer and exchange stories about our beloved Africa, and simply be happy to be alive!

My husband and I spend a night at the Sausage Tree Safari Camp and were so impressed by the magic view from the deck at our arrival. Our hosts made us part of the family and we appreciated the friendly atmosphere they created. The tents are very cosy and clean with nice linen and a very comfortable bed. We were lucky to hear lions roaring during the night and our very experienced ranger found them for us on the drive in the morning. We had a fabulous time in this camp and can't wait to return.

Hi Sonja!
Just wanted to say how much we loved and enjoyed our stay at Sausage Tree. You and Richard, Shadrack and Orlando and the rest of the team made us feel so welcome, and so much a part of your special family in what is an absolutely beautiful part of the African Bush. We just cannot express how much we appreciate and loved the lodge, the food, the game drives and the wealth of knowledge you all seem to have about various aspects of the bush, the fauna, the flora and also about travel in Africa. We really felt so at home and comfortable and did not want to leave! :D Pls thank Leticia for us as well for our great bush walk. Other than the many things we saw, what we really loved about your lodge was that everyone involved seem to have such care and respect for the bush and its inhabitants: you all made an effort to minimise your impact o

Dear Richard,

We had a great time at sausage Tree and were very well taken care of by James and Sonya.
We really felt welcome and the atmosphere was very pleasant, a great mix of home and quality hotel.
We enjoyed every minutes.
We loved the location, the set up of the camp, the tents, the secluded and personal atmosphere.
The sounds of the wild at night is something we loved, lions and jackals as well as Impalas escorted us from dusk to dawn adding a bit of magic to our stay.
The food was fantastic and every meal was creative and delicious (bravo to the chef).
Everyone was very attentive to our comfort and well being, from local employees to management.
We had luck with the lions that we met at each tour in different situations, Tamba is a very good tracker and brought us to “big boy” in a way th
