We explore the benchmark for luxury safaris - Camp Ndlovu | FULL FEATURE

Camp Ndlovu has the run of 35 000 hectares of the Welgevonden Game Reserve in Limpopo. It’s a luxury camp with the focus firmly on wildlife.

These malaria free plains in the Waterberg are where General Manager, Warren Van Niekerk and the team offer an up close, big 5 experience that’s hard to match.
The ban on private vehicles inside the reserve and the heavily restricted number of guests make you feel this is all for you. Better still, these animals have never been hunted so ranger Melvin Mcube can offer a wildlife encounter true to how these creatures behave naturally.

While guests take in the splendour, Chef Lawrence Pasipamire springs a fantastic pop up breakfast.

The best litchis, bananas, pineapples, mangos, paw paw and nuts are grown nearby so the first meal of the day is as fresh as it comes.

The idea is to stay as in touch with the natural bounty of the area as possible without compromising on comfort.
The average temperature leading into the New Year is a perfectly agreeable 23 degrees and there’s game viewing to be had even when swimming.

The attention to detail in design is immaculate but not over done. Even the outdoors are opulent spaces but it never feels too formal.

While the bathroom has everything you could need, there is no better climate in the world to head outdoors for a bath or shower under African skies.

If you must keep up your fitness routine while on holiday, they’ve got you covered with a fully kitted gym looking out over the bush.

But if it’s relaxation you’re leaning towards then the spa and expert therapists like Kate Shongoane offer irresistible spoiling.

The wealth of indigenous, natural remedies from Limpopo is another feature of these treatments.

With evening comes the best of a seasonal menu. This being a renowned province for beef and of course, game – there are few better places to be banting.

This is a first class escape; where the luxury is complete but never at the expense of what you are here for in the first place – the classic, African safari.
