Set high above the Sand River on the site of the original safari camp established in the early 1920s, Kirkman's Kamp by the Tengile MalaMala Collection, blends the romance of South Africa's pioneering safari era with contemporary comfort and exceptional wildlife viewing.

The camp is named after W. Harry Kirkman, one of the founders of the Sabi Sand Game Reserve, whose journey from hunter to conservationist became part of the region's history. Today, the camp's historic photographs, antique-inspired interiors, rolling lawns and wide verandas retain a strong sense of this heritage while providing a relaxed luxury safari experience.

Guests explore 10,500 hectares of exclusive traversing wilderness on sunrise and sunset game drives, with the area particularly renowned for its abundance of leopards and other big cats. Guided bush walks provide another perspective on the landscape, while tennis, croquet, boule and massage treatments allow for slower moments back at camp.
