Garonga's holistic philosophy is to offer a safari for the soul, an unhurried and intimate wildlife encounter a time to reflect and find inspiration in nature. You can either try your hand at every activity we have on offer, or you can do simply nothing at all lazing in the hammock with a good book while watching the grazing impala.
Activities include game drives, wilderness walks, sleep-outs, outdoor bush-baths and aromatherapy and reflexology sessions. We encourage our guests to indulge in activities that will allow them to walk close to the animals, and thereby enhance their wildlife encounter.
Guests may sleep out on their own on a beautiful deck with stunning views overlooking the Veldt. A Sumptuous Picnic Hamper, a Drinks Box, and Hot drinks are left for them at the Deck. They are left with a radio and will get collected in the morning. A Wash basin and Toilet close by are provided. It is a 20 minute drive from the main camp. A truly magical experience!
Garonga offers a true safari in a pristine wilderness. The wide variety of game at Garonga ensures that guests are pleasantly surprised at what they see, as well as how close the animals are when they are sighted. Staff and guests have contributed to this wildlife photo album.
There is plenty of interaction with the Guests when looking for game. Guests are encouraged to follow the tracking experience (almost as exciting as seeing the game) whether by vehicle or on foot.
