Pafuri Camp is a Kruger Park private safari lodge situated between the Limpopo and the Luvuvhu Rivers in the northern sector of the Kruger National Park.

Pafuri offers 20 tented rooms, all en suite with their own private deck from which you can enjoy the view of the waterhole and the animals that come to drink.

Large herds of elephant and buffalo concentrate in and around the permanent waters of the Luvuvhu River in the dry winter months. There are also resident prides of lion and a healthy population of leopard.

This is one of the few places in the Kruger where you have a good chance of spotting eland and Sharpe's grysbok, and is one of the top birding locations in South Africa.

Rare bird species found here include the carmine bee-eater, Pel's fishing owl, saddle-billed stork and a huge variety of raptors.

One of the unusual aspects of this area is its palaeo-anthropological history, with evidence of early human ancestors stretching back some 2 million years through the Stone Age and into the Iron Age. The Tulamela dynasty, the original rulers of this area, constructed walls and other structures that are not dissimilar to those found at Great Zimbabwe. There are also rock engravings, hand tools and burial grounds to be found.

Begin your days at Pafuri with coffee and something freshly baked by the chef. Brunch is served on the deck at 10 and is a buffet-style meal with cereals, fresh fruit, cheeses, salads, hot savoury dishes and, of course, an English breakfast cooked to order.

Before your evening game drive, iced tea and home-made sweet and savoury pastries are laid out, and on your return, you'll enjoy either a sit-down dinner or a generous buffet.

Pafuri Camp offers 20 tented rooms (including 6 family rooms for up to 4 people), each with en-suite bathroom facilities. The tented rooms all look out over the Luvuvhu River, where you can sit on your private deck and watch game come to drink.

Parfuri's tents set the benchmark for tented accommodation. They have polished wooden floors, curtains, glass doors and both indoor and outside showers. The rooms are placed quite far away from one another and are screened from view by indigenous jackalberry and nyala trees, so they are perfectly private.
