Less time will be spent securing hotel rooms in South Africa with the hotel’s online booking process. Guests only need to click the Reserve Now button when they visit the website. The reservation tool is readable in 57 languages via Google Translate, so guests could use the system without delay and hesitation.
Upon clicking the Reserve Now icon, guests would have to indicate their travel dates on the calendar then select the room types available for their stay. The lodge has luxury safari tents and family chalets. All the rates and amenities are presented to help guests pick rooms better. In case no room is free on their travel dates, there is a Check Availability option, which shows the other free days for the room that they have chosen.
When that’s done, guests will be required to pay only 10% of the total room charge. This serves as a deposit to secure the booking.

Located on the banks of the Nhlaralumi River at world-famous Timbavati Private Nature Reserve (TPNR), Simbavati River Lodge is a holiday camp charmingly surrounded by old Jackalberry and Leadwood trees. While the ambience of the luxury tents and chalets is definitely safari, the interior design and amenities are marked by contemporary décor and elegance. Enjoy this setting nestled in almost 54,000 hectares of land near the Kruger National Park. There are over 40 mammal species to witness.
The lodge, whose name translates to “the place where the lions come down from the stars”, particularly features breathtaking vistas, a warm and knowledgeable staff, and viewing of the “Big 5” animals of the region. The Big 5 refers to the 5 most-difficult animals in Africa to hunt on foot: the lion, the African elephant, cape buffalo, leopard, and rhinoceros.
The game drives at Simbavati River Lodge Resort in South Africa occur early in the morning and evening when game viewing is most active. Game drives are led by expert field guides and Shangaan trackers. Guests ride in open 4X4s, which should be ideal for photographers. Aside from the Big 5, guests will be able to see kudus, zebras, warthogs, giraffes, and monkeys. In the evening, nocturnal animals and some of the big cats are easy to spot. Bird viewing is spectacular as well, with more than 360 species to see, including eagles, vultures, kingfishers, and herons.
