nThambo Tree Camp, sister property to Africa on Foot in the Klaserie Private Nature Reserve, puts its five chalets on stilts at canopy height overlooking a pumped waterhole, with canvas walls and thatch roofs. It shares the reserve's traversing with Africa on Foot; children under 12 are not accepted.

About the photographs

The pictures on this page are stock photographs chosen to suggest the kind of setting this property is in. They are not photographs of this property, and we cannot verify exactly where any of them was taken — a stock library records the photographer, not the place. We use them rather than borrow the property's own marketing images, which would imply we had stayed there. For pictures of the actual rooms, see the property's own site.
