Enjoy luxury eco-friendly, safari accommodation, bush walking trails & guided game drives. Located at Pafuri Camp in Northern Kruger National Park South Africa.
Situated between the Limpopo and Luvuvhu rivers, the 26 500-hectare Makuleke Contractual Park is the meeting point of a multitude of habitats, resulting in a region of extraordinary scenic beauty and biodiversity. The concession is by far the most diverse within the whole of Kruger with almost three quarters of the Park’s bird, mammal, fish, amphibian, reptile and tree species being found here. The area has also long been regarded a destination of choice for southern African birdwatchers. With an eco-friendly lodge (Pafuri Tented Camp), two walking safari camps (Pafuri Walking Safaris) and an exclusive use house (Baobab Hill House), guests enjoy a curated, deeper safari experience tailored to ensure journeys of discovery for all those who visit Pafuri
Pafuri Tented Camp is positioned along the Luvuvhu River, shaded by the giant trees that overhang the camp, shrouded in the history and incredible biodiversity of the region, offering guests an immersive experience different to any traditional safari location.
Scenic game drives to various points of interest in the concession (including but not limited to Lanner Gorge, the Limpopo Flood Plain, the Fever Tree Forest, the Nyala Berry Forest, seasonal wetlands and Mangala). Bush walks - the best way to experience the forests, floodplains, gorges and kopjes between the two rivers is on foot. Walking this remote and pristine landscape allows a more intimate experience and is the ideal option for bird watchers looking for specials like Pel’s Fishing Owl as well others seeking solitude and wilderness in one of Africa’s great landscapes in an unrivalled walking destination.
Pafuri Tented Camp offers a walking activity from April to October each year (Pafuri Walking Safaris) to allow nature lovers to celebrate a rarely explored place that is as vast and varied as it is wild. Guests staying at Pafuri Tented Camp can pre-arrange to swop out a morning game drive for a bushwalk to explore the concession on foot.
Experience the beauty bush dinners along the Luvuvhu River,and or bush breakfast amongst the giant Nyala Berry trees or a boma evening filled with storytelling by the Makuleke people. Full-day excursions with a picnic lunch,that allow you to venture further afield, pre-arranged with the reservation office.

Great planning and service
Great planning and service, and everything worked like clockwork. We booked an Inyari Lodge safari with air with Safari.com. it wasn't clear if there will be 2 or three of us, so with Candis' help we booked a family chalet for 2 and added the third later when it was confirmed he can come. Candis put us on flights that maximized our game drive time (unlike some of the other guests) so we got all 6 drives in 3 nights. The lodge was great. Especially the game drives. We saw more than we hoped for. Additionally, Safari.com's insurance was very competitive. Highly recommended.

Very helpful even with ever changing trip!
Anja was very helpful in getting our tour booked for our group. With date changes, time changes, even up to the last minute flight changes, she was on top of things! We will use Safari.com in the future for our Kenya safari trips.

Wonderful experience with Safari.com
Wonderful experience with Safari.com. My Safari Agent, Dolan, has 20+ years of experience in booking a memorable safari. He guided me in picking the right lodging and safari within my budget. He offered several options and answered all my questions. His response time was fast, regardless of the international time difference, and we were able to make quick decisions. Highly recommend.

Shann was very responsive
Shann was very responsive, provided multiple options, and was flexible to our changing needs and desires. Our travel selection was somewhat last minute and Shann was able to accommodate with many price points and reserves that were lower malaria risks.

I had an exceptional experience working with Shann as my travel advisor for planning my upcoming trip to Kruger, Botswana, and Victoria Falls. She was incredibly attentive and accommodating, seamlessly tailoring the trip to fit our budget and preferences. Shann’s meticulous attention to detail in the planning process has given us complete confidence that our trip will be smooth and memorable. She is always prompt in her responses and available to answer any questions we might have. I highly recommend her and safari.com

Leigh-Ann was amazing.
Leigh-Ann was amazing. She worked incredibly hard to provide us with our complex safari in Botswana and our travel and accommodation in South Africa. Leigh-Ann was always very helpful and encouraging which must have been very difficult for her as we were within a very tight time schedule to arrange our holiday. She was very thoughtful and even included a list of the things we would need to take. I am so happy with the final outcome and I am very thankful to Leigh-Ann and the other Safari.com team members who worked so hard to make our dream safari a reality.
