InventTour - Sausage Tree Safari Camp

With just 5 luxury tents the classic Sausage Tree Safari Camp is an idyllic destination for guests seeking an understated “Kruger under canvas” style camp. Located in the heart of a Big 5 region in the Olifants West Nature Reserve, Sausage Tree is a sanctuary for all things wild. The entire camp sprawls across terrain dotted with Marula, Acacia thorn and Sausage Trees; and has commanding views of the dramatic Drakensberg Mountains.

The camp is owner-run and managed by James and Sonja who, combined, speak over five languages. James’ expert guiding skills and bushveld knowledge is passed down to the many guests who frequent the camp, and he is backed by his two right-hand trackers Themba and Jimmy who have over 15 years’ experience. Local figurehead, Sonja, is a whizz with décor and anything food related. She ensures that chef Pitso delivers only the finest homecooked fare to hungry safari-goers.

There is approximately 3000 ha of traversing, with 4 kms stretching across prime riverfront terrain where you’ll discover local specials like the rare Pel’s fishing-owl. The guides at Sausage Tree Safari Camp ensure there are a multitude of opportunities to explore the unruly wilderness and undisturbed biodiversity of the area during their twice-daily game drives. From sundowners to coffee stops and private romantic set-ups, the team certainly know how to take advantage of the spoils of the bushveld.
