This was truely one of the highlights of our recent trip to SA. The welcome from Riaan, Julie and Yvonne was warm and friendly, making us feel completely at home. Being the only two visitors for the two nights we stayed made it feel very special, like being one of the family. Nothing was too much trouble and the tent... More

We stayed for 2 nights in late Feb and had a fantastic time. The whole set up is fantastic and I couldn't agree more with the other positive reviews. Thank you!

Where to start... This was our first ever trip to SA and this was definitely one of our highlights during our travels! We stayed for 3 nights and absolutely loved it. If you're after fancy Spas, massages and a 40 foot pool, this wont be for you. If you're after a true Safari experience, delicious down to earth meals, adventurous... More

Being privileged in having travelled extensively throughout South Africa this was indeed a great find. The whole team goes the extra mile to ensure that this is an experience you will long remember after your return to the norm. Authentic, with comfort built in along with a heavy dose of great company. The saying "its nice to be nice" comes... More

Staying at Quatermain's Camp was, without question, the highlight of our revent, almost month long, trip to South Africa. Not being the "outdoors type" I must agree with other reviewers in saying that I have rarely been so far outside of my comfort zone inasmuch as this was a genuine bush-living experience where nothing was staged or artificial. From the... More

We only stayed one night at this fantastic camp but what we experienced was the highlight of our South Africa trip. As we stayed mid-week the two of us were the only guests for that night - which meant that we had the whole camp to ourselves (and the animals).. Riaan took us on an extensive game drive with two...

Our family had the great pleasure of staying at Quatermains camp for 2 nights at the very begining of our South African adventure. We had a warm and welcome greeting from Yvonne (ranger), Rhiann and Julie (owner/rangers) who were all very knowledgable and informative throughout our stay. We were shown around the fantasically authentic camp site, which proved to be... More

We stayed at Quatermain's for the first 2 days of our 10 day trip along the garden route. It was both our first trip to S.A. and our first safari experience and we could not have asked for a more perfect introduction. If you're looking for an authentic, unspoiled safari experience with the best possible guides then look no further.

I would recommend Quartermain's Camp to anyone who is looking for a genuine African experience in South Africa. From the moment Rhiann (the co-owner) collected us in his green range rover and drover us 20 minutes into the bush, we knew we were going to enjoy ourselves. We arrived at the camp, were welcomed into the 'boma' for refreshments and... More
