From 13-15 September 2024, Kruger Untamed’s Tshokwane River Camp will host an intimate lifestyle experience for discerning nature enthusiasts. “Serenading the Untamed” will blend wildlife encounters, luxury glamping, and gourmet food and wine, culminating in an unplugged performance by acclaimed musician Craig Hinds.
Set in one of Kruger National Park’s most game-rich areas, this exclusive, low-impact event merges pristine wilderness with bespoke lifestyle experiences. Guests will enjoy gourmet cuisine, wine tastings, and expert ranger-led safari activities, all while staying in luxurious, eco-conscious tented suites that blend into the surrounding environment. The weekend’s highlight is an intimate, starlit performance by Craig Hinds, frontman of the multi-platinum-selling South African group Watershed. Hinds will serenade guests in a dry riverbed setting, his acoustic melodies harmonising with the sounds of the African bush.
“Motsamayi Tourism Group has earned its reputation by creating iconic experiences showcasing the finest African hospitality, luxury accommodation, and natural beauty. Our Kruger Untamed camps embody this pioneering spirit, pushing boundaries with creative concepts and unforgettable events,” says Judiet Barnes, CMO of Motsamayi Tourism Group.
Tshokwane River Camp opened last year and has quickly become renowned for its prime location beside the Ripape River’s dry riverbed. This setting provides an immersive experience in Kruger’s wilderness, making it a sought-after destination for discerning nature enthusiasts. Guests stay in spacious, luxurious tented suites hidden among riparian forests of leadwood, rain, and sausage trees.
Between safari activities in Kruger Untamed’s private concession and relaxing in the elegant lounging areas around the dry riverbed, guests will enjoy curated wine tastings of Hinds’ wines, created with Cellarmaster Danie Steytler Junior of Kaapzicht Wine Estate.
Space is limited with 25 tents for 50 guests. Purchase tickets through Kruger Untamed Reservations. For more information, visit www.krugeruntamed.com.
Kruger Untamed is the first seasonal luxury tented camp concession in Kruger National Park, operating only during winter. This venture is a collaboration between Motsamayi Tourism Group, Chiefs Tented Camps, and World Trackers. The first camp, Tshokwane River Camp, opened last year, and Satara Plains Camp will launch in July 2024.
South Africa will host Africa’s first glamping event in October 2024. Glamping Expo 2024 is a unique platform for businesses along the whole glamping value chain.
