Hi Anthea, I booked a 6 day safari in Tanda Tula with you last September. Just a note to say it was truley amazing. We saw all the big five and the people were wonderful. We met many new friends. We are photographers and started a photo/blog with some of the photos we took. Again, thanks for the help in finding the perfect place.

The Timbavati Game reserve traverses a 20 000 hectare area with dropped fences between Kruger so that animals roam freely and offers a wide biodiversity. Home to the big five (lion, rhino, elephant, leopard and buffalo) as well as antelope, zebra, wild dog and a variety of other smaller mammals, reptiles and bird life. The uniqueness of the Timbavati is a unique opportunity to see the rare White Lions.
