Guests can enjoy a scrumptious breakfast and lunch in the restaurant. For dinner, feast on traditional South African cuisine served in the boma under phenomenal star-studded skies. Pair your meal with a glass of selected Cape wine, and, afterward, enjoy a nightcap in the warm and inviting bar. Browse the well-stocked on-site curio shop, swim a few laps in the sparkling pool nestled in peaceful gardens surrounded by fascinating rock formations, or surrender to relaxation in the health and beauty spa. Treatments include rejuvenating massages, blissful Fynbos steam treatments, and indulgent facials. Kagga Kamma’s tranquil and unique setting makes it an idyllic choice for a memorable wedding ceremony or as a conference venue. The Bushmen Lodge is state-of-the-art for conferences and offers excellent catering services.
Kagga Kamma is located in the southeastern region of the Cederberg, in the Swartruggens district. This region was home to the Bushmen for centuries. The red-brown weathered sandstone formations seen here are characteristic of the Cederberg. The surrounding vegetation consists of dry mountain fynbos, and the area is largely treeless, offering far-reaching views. A variety of shrubs dominate, including Southern Cone Marigold, Klaaslouwbos, Koringbos, Renosterbos, Sneeubos, Wolwedoring, Taaibos, and Skilpadbessie. Some Protea species, typical of the Cape, can also be found in the higher elevations.
Kagga Kamma is home to a variety of wild animals. Common species include Burchell's Zebra and several species of antelope, such as Eland, Gemsbok, White-Tailed Gnu, Blue Wildebeest, Bontebok, Springbok, Grey Rhebok, Duiker, Klipspringer, and Steenbuck.
The reserve is also a haven for bird enthusiasts. On the open plains, large birds such as Ostriches, Secretary Birds, and Kori Bustards can be spotted. Closer to the lodge, you may find birds like the Cape Robin, Cape Bulbul, Cape Sparrow, and House Sparrow. During the winter and spring months, by open water, birdlife includes Egyptian Geese, Red-Billed Teal, Black Duck, and South African Shelduck. The distinctive sounds of the veld at Kagga Kamma include the calls of the Black Bustard and the Namaqua Sand Grouse, the latter producing its iconic "kelkiewyn" call—an apt reminder to enjoy a sundowner as the day winds down.

If you’re looking for someone to help you plan the trip of a lifetime, look no further than Keith Chideme. Keith has been nothing short of extraordinary in helping me create a month-long dream trip to South Africa for myself and 11 family members. His patience, kindness, and thoughtfulness throughout the entire process have been remarkable. Keith went above and beyond, engaging in countless conversations to make sure every detail of our six-destination itinerary was just right. He worked tirelessly to balance my budget with my desire for an unforgettable experience, finding deals and creative solutions that I would never have managed on my own. His dedication and expertise gave me complete confidence that this trip will be everything I’ve dreamed of and more. One of my favorite aspects of working with Keith was the personal touch he brought to every interaction. Whether through voice messages, phone calls, or texts, he was always patient, thorough, and thoughtful in explaining every aspect of the itinerary. I never once felt rushed or overlooked—he truly cared about making this trip perfect for us. I can’t imagine planning this trip without Keith. Knowing he has my back has been such a comfort, and I feel completely at ease knowing we are in such capable hands. My entire family is incredibly excited about this incredible adventure, and I know I’ll be contacting Keith for all my future travel plans. He is an absolute gem and a true professional. Thank you, Keith, for everything!
