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.
“Welcome to MCH Safari Camp, a place where the untamed beauty of the Greater Makalali Private Nature Reserve is on your doorstep. Our story began in 1997 when we opened Garonga Safari Camp, and since then, we’ve been on an incredible journey with our dedicated team to create unforgettable safari experiences.
At MCH, we’re not just about showcasing the best wildlife and guiding; we’re also dedicated to offering you a truly relaxing and rejuvenating holiday. We are proud to be the culmination of three properties built over the years, and our longevity has taught us what our guests truly appreciate, all while staying true to our mission of providing a wonderful ‘Safari for the soul.’
MCH Safari Camp is a harmonious blend of exclusivity, comfort, and style. Please explore our website, you’ll discover the essence of a true safari experience, immersed in luxury and style.
Thank you for visiting MCH Safari Camp, and we hope to welcome you soon to our safari camp in the heart of the Greater Makalali Private Nature Reserve.”
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’.
An exciting array of safari dining experiences await at MCH. You can wine and dine at a private table with your special someone one night, and the next, join the festive al fresco dinner at the Boma, which has its own bar. Great food and company come together at our generous round table and straight table settings on the main deck.
For those extra-special occasions, experience safari cuisine in a unique and private location. Expect a gorgeous, lantern-lit table, bush views and of course, a beautifully prepared meal. All our guests can request a private dining setup, regardless of whether you are staying at Safari Camp, Little Garonga or MCH.
Taste our safari cuisine under the African sky at the Bush Boma. This is an outdoor communal area, where we often host dinners – our pizza ovens are a firm favourite. Complete with a fully-stocked bar and fire pit, it is a relaxed setting to unwind and dine under the stars while making new friends and sharing stories of the day’s game viewing.
Indulge in a full sensory experience with a Bush Breakfast at one of our favourite wild locations. Tuck into a full breakfast spread, while listening to the sounds of the bush at dawn or sharing your wildlife sighting expectations for that day with others. Remember to keep a lookout because you never know what might walk past.
