Family Safaris

Thornybush Game Lodge, set in the heart of the Greater Kruger Park is an ideal Kruger safari destination as it caters for multigenerational families. Thornybush Game Lodge presents Kamara house, a private two-bedroom family safari villa, offering space, comfort, and exclusivity within the lodge.

Opened in May 2023, Kamara House can also be booked with two adjacent suites should you need more space. Little Saseka, which forms part of Saseka Tented Camp, is the ideal choice of a private luxury hideout for families. This exclusive-use tent sleeps two adults and two children, with the option to use another three adjacent tented suites. Both Little Saseka and Kamara House have their own expert guide, tracker and private open-air safari vehicle, as well as a personal chef and dedicated butler.

Both Kamara House and Little Saseka feature spacious outdoor decks and private plunge pools, offering relaxed spaces to unwind and take in the surrounding wilderness. Tailored family activities can be arranged to ensure a memorable stay for guests of all ages, from guided bush walks introducing children to insects and plant life, to interactive baking activities. For those wishing to capture these special moments, a private family photo shoot can also be arranged.
