Located directly adjacent to the world renowned Kruger National Park is Thornybush Nature Reserve – roughly 11.000 hectares, a private bush venue which specialises in romantic getaways, bush weddings and business retreats or indabas. With world class, state of the art facilities, and five star accommodation, Thornybush Nature Reserve is home to a series of gorgeous safari camp units, tented camps, and the eponymous Thornybush Game Lodge – a fantastic meeting place of unbelievable adventure and top notch accommodation and facilities.

Chapungu Luxury Tented Camp is a safari guest’s ticket to a long gone era of colonial romance and mystery, surrounded by the Thornybush veld as it is, and open to the expansive, warm glow of the setting African sun. Days spent tracking wildebeest across the brambly landscape, twilight spent around a campfire enjoying a sundowner – authentic tented accommodation that also stands as a benchmark of comfort. Chapungu encapsulates the untranslatable essence of this area perfectly, guests are transported to a pristine, distinctly African landscape in which anything can happen, and when it does, it’s almost always something exciting!
