Suspend what you know about luxury tented camps. The latest addition to the Thornybush Collection, Saseka Tented Camp, is state-of-the-art, luxurious and imbued with idyllic African wilderness. Saseka is the Tsonga word for Beautiful. Set in the north-eastern portion of the big-5 game rich Thornybush Nature Reserve, situated in the greater Kruger National Park.
Saseka, elegantly positioned on the banks of the Monwana dry-riverbed, which sweeps through the reserve, with a distinct curve in the river being a natural catalyst for the site of the main area. The lodge blends a wonderfully spacious and light, modern look with natural materials and textures, finished with elements reminiscent of a bygone era.
The camp boasts eight elevated Tented Suites, each with a four poster bed draped in mosquito netting, an opulent en-suite bathroom, outdoor shower, stackable glass doors for exceptional views of the bushveld from all rooms, air conditioning, in-room safe, tea and coffee making facilities, and an expansive viewing deck with deck chairs and a private splash pool.
The gorgeous Leadwood Villa boasts two bedrooms that can accommodate up to four adults and two children, a lounge, a dining area where private meals are savored, and a large viewing deck with a splash pool and pool loungers.
The main camp facilities include an expansive deck area with spectacular views of the river, two large fireplaces, a small gift, Wi-Fi access, laundry service and a swimming pool.
Thornybush Game Reserve shares an unfenced border with the Kruger National Park, so the animals move freely between the reserve and park. The Kruger is home to as many as 147 mammal species, including the Big Five and other incredible species such as giraffe, wild dogs, cheetah and hyena. For bird lovers, there are more than 500 species or birds recorded in the park.
Saseka is perfect for those travelers who enjoy a personalized service, ultra-luxurious accommodation and a more exclusive safari experience.

Everyone has seemed to care a lot about my wife and me. Communication has been good via email, especially with the difference of eight hours of time zones.

Pascal is a travel angel! Highly recommend him.
We started planning for our safari trip contacting a bunch of different travel advisors but Pascal's service truly stood out to us as the best in the industry. He took care of planning everything from start to finish for our very last minute honeymoon trip (literally a month out and during the busiest safari season). He is extremely meticulous and very responsive to our 100 questions. He shared first hand experiences at each of the different lodges, personal pictures and gave us solid recommendations within our budget. He hopped on a call with us initially to explain all the differences to us first time safari goers, and continued to be very flexible and patient with us as we couldn't decide! We are very excited for our trip and cannot thank Pascal enough for being our first interaction on our upcoming 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.
