Authentic Kruger Walks with Optional Sleep-Outs

Plains Camp – Rhino Walking Safaris delivers a back-to-basics, up-close Kruger experience on a private concession near Skukuza. With just four classic tents and expert trail guides, the focus is firmly on tracking and interpreting the bush on foot, complemented by unhurried game drives when conditions suit. Evenings bring fireside dinners and superb southern-sky stargazing, while adventurous guests can opt for a hosted “sleep-out” on an elevated platform. It’s a quiet, authentic camp designed for nature lovers who value space, simplicity and true immersion.

Location & Setting

Set on a private concession in the southern Kruger near Skukuza, Plains Camp sits at the base of a low hill overlooking open plains with distant ridges. Access is typically via flights to Skukuza Airport, followed by a short transfer through the park—often with wildlife sightings en route.

Rooms

Accommodation comprises four safari tents with ensuite facilities, hot running water and practical comforts powered by a generator. Canvas, timber and classic safari touches create an old-world feel, while private verandas look onto the surrounding bush for quiet wildlife viewing between activities.

Facilities

Days follow a relaxed rhythm: early coffee and rusks, a morning bush walk and brunch; siesta and waterhole watching; then high tea followed by an afternoon walk or drive and sundowners. Evenings center on the fire and shared meals. Adventurous guests can opt for a hosted sleep-out on a raised platform for a night under the stars.
