Our stay at Quatermain’s was one of the highlights of our three-week trip through South Africa. Julie was incredibly accommodating and made every request feel easy. Jess and Kyle were excellent game-drive guides—engaging, attentive and clearly passionate about what they do. Nick’s warm hospitality made us feel completely at home, while Riaan’s incredible knowledge brought every part of the walking safari to life. The camp’s thoughtful comforts were equally memorable. The hot-water bottles were absolutely perfect on the cold African nights and mornings, and the lovely wood-fired hot tub was a wonderful place to relax after a day in the reserve. What stood out most was the team’s attention to detail and genuine kindness. They even managed to arrange a vegan birthday cake for my companion at very short notice, making her celebration especially memorable. The experiences were wonderful, but it was the people and their thoughtfulness that made our stay exceptional. We left with terrific memories and would wholeheartedly recommend Quatermain’s to anyone looking for a personal and unforgettable safari experience. Lastly, the cave experience was truly special.

Unique impressive tented safari camp

Unique impressive camp with only three tents and very personal service. Long exciting game drives and yummy food. Craig was by far our favorite safari guide, but they’re all great. We were very well taken care of and are so grateful for the experience.

Wunderbarer Aufenthalt

Der Komfort in einem Safari-Camp von Anno 1920 ist logischwerweise nicht wie in einem Luxus-Camp. Ich würde aber das Quatermains einem solchen vorziehen. Nur 3 Zweierzelte, gemeinsames Essen. Nette Gastgeber und Mitarbeiter, gutes Essen und tolle Pirschfahrten führten zu einem wunderschönen Aufenthalt!

Amazing experience

Amazing experience in the tented camp. Great guides and we saw a lot of animals. The tented camp is a special experience to get you back to nature. We stayed for 2 nights which we thought was about right. One night would not be enough but 3 nights may be too tiring. The beds were surprisingly comfortable so we slept well and the food is very good

different style of safari but great

easy to find, was nervous about leaving car but wasnt issue. little confused on arrival how things worked but was fine. little walk to our tent which was well equipped and slept fine. great to see owners who have great passion, not sure if everyone does as its run by 2 rangers who take u on the drives. thought we would get 4 game drives but was only 3 with a short bush walk. food very nice, lunch wasnt my thing but wasnt hungry. not sure what to do between walk and drive, so be prepared. game drives great fun and saw some great sights. glad on second day to have knowledgable couple who added to the trip. would promote here as great experience but not for all.

South African Camping and safari

This is an "Out of Africa" style tented camp with no electricity! Visitors stay in quaint, private tents with private bathrooms. Daily safari's are led by knowledgeable guides. Ample food and beverages are included. There's room for 6 visitors total, so the experience is intimate and the staff treat you like family. Definitely worth experiencing. They handled our transportation to and from Port Elizabeth Airport.

Wouldn't have changed a thing

Far exceeded our expectations, fabulous secluded tents, wonderful staff, thanks Lungi, Genna and Craig. Delicious food, thanks Ace - what a great team. Saw lots of game whilst driving and walking, we wanted a rustic African experience and certainly got that with knobs on.

Perfecte manier om de natuur te ervaren

Een verblijf midden in het private game resort. De perfecte uitvalsbasis voor safari's: Je ben er als eerste en laatste. Slapen in de tent met de dieren en geluiden om je heen. Er zijn slecht 3 prima uitgeruste tenten en samen met de persoonlijke aandacht van de koks en rangers voelt het als op avontuur met een clubje vrienden. Een aanrader.
