About Zulu Camp at Shambala Private Game Reserve
Shambala Private Game Reserve is situated on 10,000 hectares in the Limpopo Province, a mere 2½ hour drive or 45 minute helicopter ride from Johannesburg, Zulu Camp at Shambala Private Game Reserve is set under the watchful guardianship of the picturesque, malaria-free Waterberg mountains, and the magnificent African bushveld is home to a variety of remarkable flora and fauna including The Big Five.
Zulu Camp is built in traditional Zulu style with streams from the nearby river running through the camp. Your adventure starts as you stand on the deck overlooking the river that is home to many animal species. The sound of birdcalls echo across the water, and in the late afternoon you might hear the plaintive call of the fish eagle as the hippos return to wallow in the river.
The Nelson Mandela Villa offers six luxury bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms, including a Presidential Suite and can accommodate 12 guests. The exclusivity and privacy of this special piece of paradise is unique and unsurpassed.
