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.
Nestled along a curve of the seasonal Monwana River, Saseka Tented Camp stands as one of the most desirable luxury safari destinations within the Greater Kruger Park region.
The word "Saseka" translates to "beautiful" in the local Tsonga language, a fitting name as everything here—from the elegantly designed tented suites to the tranquil ambiance, exceptional cuisine, and attentive service—embodies that description.
The camp features nine luxurious tents, each equipped with a private deck, pool, and outdoor shower, accommodating two guests per suite. For families or small groups, Little Saseka offers a shared lounge and dining area, a communal deck and pool, and a private safari vehicle.
The lodge offers various facilities and services, including babysitting, a bar, bush breakfasts (weather permitting), a deck, game drives, a lounge, mobile coverage, riverbed dinners (weather permitting), a spa, wake-up calls, and Wi-Fi access.
Experiences
Thornybush and Sabi Sand Nature Reserves share an unfenced boundary with Kruger National Park, creating one of the richest areas for native wildlife in Southern Africa.
With the Big Five freely roaming under the expansive skies of the Greater Kruger Park, guests enjoy consistent and exhilarating encounters with these iconic animals. Twice-daily game drives, guided bush walks, or even relaxing at the lodge provide incredible opportunities to experience the wildlife.
The variety of wildlife in this region is truly remarkable, ranging from giraffes and zebras to hippos, hyenas, wild dogs, antelope, and hundreds of bird species. Skilled guides and trackers, who possess deep knowledge of the bush and an innate ability to find the action, will bring you close to it all in open-air safari vehicles.

Our experience with safari.com was great!
I worked with Denise Heemro to put together the perfect safari. Denise was patient and responsive in addressing our clients' needs and helped us to find the perfect accommodations at an affordable price. She put together two separate packages and helped us think through options to choose the perfect trip. We'll work with her and safari.com next time we're putting together a safari package for our clients or our own family!
