Getaway (South Africa)

About Sausage Tree Camp

-

‘Having attended safaris throughout Southern and East Africa for more than 30 years, staying in many styles of accommodat­ion, we liked Sausage Tree for its friendly manner, comfortabl­e and roomy tents, good food and excellent guides. After the sound safari we stayed on for another night to further enjoy the camp and its activities.’ – Linda Whatmore, guest Sausage Tree Safari Camp has five comfortabl­e, en-suite tents, individual­ly spaced for privacy and views over the plains of Balule. Owner-managed by committed conservati­onists and naturalist­s James and Sonja Carne, guests are welcomed like friends, and the well-run camp’s vibe is relaxed, close to nature, and unpretenti­ous. Its inviting central living area, pool and elevated dining deck provide many places for guests to gather between activities, which include morning and evening game drives, walks, track and sign-related outings, sound and photograph­ic safaris, and various day tours outside the reserve. Fully catered, all meals at Sausage Tree are prepared by the talented chef, with breakfast and lunch served at a communal long table, and dinner served around the fire in the boma. The camp has good traversing over the conservanc­y, with yearround access to the perennial Olifants River. James, and Sonja’s son, guide Matthew Sussens, also broadcast live from the reserve via TourHQ (tourhq.com/tickets/go-on-a-safari-in-the-kruger-national-park) to clients around the world for private interactiv­e safaris in real time for single and multi screens. These virtual tours make awesome birthday presents for family and friends. For more informatio­n visit: sausagetre­e.co.za
