Private Tented Camp

An Exclusive Safari Getaway

MCH is the newest addition to the Garonga Safari Company family. With its tented camps, it embodies authentic safari style, with the added luxuries that make it a signature ‘safari for the soul’.

MCH offers a private and intimate bush getaway for groups of families or friends and is thus perfect for extended stays.  Individual couples can also enjoy our luxurious tented camp. 

Perched on a small hill (kopje), the four tents that comprise MCH Camp each has a sumptuous bath tub, indoor and outdoor showers, as well as air conditioning and wi-fi. 

The indoor lounge that flows onto a private deck is the perfect spot to sample the well stocked bar and the panoramic views of the Makalali wilderness and the distant Drakensberg Mountains.

Safari for the Soul

Garonga is situated in the 27,000ha Greater Makalali Private Nature Reserve, just North of Hoedspruit in the province of Limpopo, South Africa. Not only does the reserve boast the presence of the Big Five (including black and white rhino), it is also home to cheetah, wild dog, hyena, hippo, crocodiles and an abundance of plains, game and bird life.

Garonga is committed to sustainability: all our camps run on solar power as the primary energy source.

Each of our three camps offers a unique atmosphere, whilst maintaining a luxurious safari experience, aligned with our ethos of ‘Safari for the Soul’.

My husband and I traveled from USA for a Garonga Safari for our honeymoon. We stayed at MCH and it was truly a luxury experience - from the accommodations, to the the food, to the amenities, to the people and service, all AMAZING. We did 4 nights, including a sleep out (which was scary at first but then a highlight of our trip!), it was a perfect amount of time to see a variety of animals in a variety of settings/activities. We have been recommended Garonga to all of our friends and family back home!

We had the most wonderful time at Garonga! Phinneas and Jordi were incredible guides - we saw some incredible sights and would thoroughly recommend. The food & rooms at the MCH camp were also spectacular - this was a perfect stay for our honeymoon!

See many wild animals in a luxurious setting (MCH Private Tented Camp). Very attentive well trained guides, trackers and hotel staff. They o ly have a maximum of eight guests at a time in four seperate luxurious tents.

And there is so much more….
