Tintswalo Safari Lodge

Tintswalo Safari Lodge is an exclusive safari lodge located in the Manyeleti Game Reserve, within the Greater Kruger National Park. The Manyeleti Game Reserve is a pristine wilderness area that opens in the east to the vastness of the Kruger National Park, teeming with the Big Five game animals and spectacular birdlife. The reserve is unique for its minimal vehicle density, offering a truly exclusive safari experience.

Tintswalo Safari Lodge is situated along a seasonal river bed among an ancient sycamore tree grove. The exquisitely appointed main lodge overlooks a waterhole frequently visited by a large herd of elephants and other big game animals. The Explorer Suites are all connected to the main lodge by raised wooden walkways. Tintswalo Manor House, an intimate and homely setting with complete privacy, is located a 5-minute drive away from the Main Lodge. The luxury en-suite air-conditioned rooms overlook a waterhole that often welcomes thirsty visitors of all kinds.

The lodge features an imaginative wine cellar and a well-stocked bar to cater to guests' culinary preferences. Tintswalo's chefs are trained in both South African and international cooking styles. Plated meals are served in sophisticated dining areas, including a romantic cellar and under the starry African night sky. Private dining is available upon request, and the lodge can cater to any special dietary requirements when informed in advance.

After a long day of exploration in the bush, guests can experience moments of supreme relaxation, inner peace, and rejuvenation of spirituality at the Elan Vitu00e2l spa, which specializes in hands-on treatment for both men and women, utilizing concentrated plant-based Elemis products to stimulate all senses. Tintswalo's schedule is infinitely flexible, with the day's activities planned around the guests. A typical day would start with an early morning game drive and perhaps a picnic breakfast, followed by an al fresco lunch on the main lodge deck and leisure time to allow for a relaxing spa treatment. The evening drive continues into the night, complete with Tintswalo's unique and spectacular sundowner experience, and the day is rounded by a crystal candlelit dinner.

Each Explorer suite has an en-suite bathroom, a private deck, and a plunge pool. The accommodation includes full board, two safari activities per day, house drinks, and Wi-Fi. Premium branded alcohol, transfers, park entry fees, and community upliftment levies are excluded.
