Fodor's Expert Review Talamati

Talamati-camp Rd., Kruger National Park, Mpumalanga, South Africa

On the banks of the normally dry N'waswitsontso River in Kruger's central section, this peaceful camp in the middle of a wide, open valley has excellent game-viewing. Grassy plains and mixed woodlands provide an ideal habitat for herds of impalas, zebras, and wildebeests, as well as lions, cheetahs, and elephants. You can take a break from your vehicle and watch birds and game from a couple of raised viewing platforms inside the perimeter fence. The cottages are well equipped and comfortable, with cane furniture and airy verandas.

PROS

  • peaceful
  • good plains game
  • couple of good picnic spots in vicinity
  • bigger camps near enough to stock up on supplies

CONS

  • a bit bland
