SafariRoamer
Olifants sits on elevated ground overlooking the Olifants River valley in central Kruger, and is known specifically for the view: elephant, hippo and crocodile are often visible from the camp itself without needing to drive out. A guided Olifants Trail walking safari departs from here.
What sets it apart
The single most scenic rest-camp setting in Kruger — a genuine panoramic river-valley view rather than a camp surrounded by bush.
Who it suits
Self-drive visitors who want camp downtime to feel like part of the safari, not a break from it.

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.
