Breakfast and lunch are served on the deck and dinner is mostly served around the fire at the traditional boma. There is also a well-stocked bar. Your stay includes three meals daily along with hot drinks. Bar drinks & staff tipping are extra and there is a once off conservation fee/ vehicle fee payable by card on entry at the game reserve. Hoedspruit Airport is a 45-minute drive from the camp, if requested we can organise airport transfers against an extra cost.
