Londolozi Varty Camp enquiries and reservations: bookkruger@madbookings.com

Varty Camp is the heart and soul of Londolozi.
Varty Camp
is also home to the original Sparta Hunting Camp, our boutique, the Cardio Vascular Room, Massage Treatment Room and our Library. Guests from all Camps are invited to make use of these facilities.
At Londolozi, superb cuisine is considered an essential part of the experience and a vital component of our philosophy.


Much of the day revolves around specifically crafted culinary delights – freshly baked muffins at sunrise, morning morsels on the game drive, a fortifying breakfast, lunch and indulgent high tea before the next game drive and its sundowner treats and, the grand finale, a traditional fireside banquet or a private dinner.

Londolozi Varty Camp Accommodation

The accommodation consits of eight chalets and two superior chalets.
The campfire has burned here for over 82 years making Varty Camp the symbolic heart and soul of Londolozi.

The décor echoes the same tones of the owners private homes and their continuing love affair with the earth.

Varty Camp is the home of an African safari holiday. All rooms have private swimming pools framed by timber decks that overlook the riverine bush. The living spaces are raised off the ground and shaded under a cathedral of trees. The camp has a pleasingly down-to-earth quality and the emphasis on family heritage means that children always have a place at Varty Camp.

Going on Safari at Londolozi:
As the original South African Safari destination, Londolozi over its 82-year history has built up a formidable team of experienced rangers, trackers and naturalists. This diverse team of experts boasts a combined guiding experience of over 350 years.
We have drawn on the considerable wisdom, talent and experience of our guiding teams, and returned to the original spirit of fun and wild adventure of a Safari to Africa. Our emphasis in 2010 and beyond is to redefine the essence of the ‘photographic safari experience’ by creating still greater opportunities for engagement and experience. Furthermore we aim to continually push the boundaries of fun, adventure, excitement and fulfillment throughout your safari adventure at Londolozi.
With over 16 000 hectares of traversing wilderness, no two game drives are ever the same. Trackers sit up at the front of the Land Rover looking for fresh animal tracks, while rangers drive with astonishing skill through ravines and thickets in pursuit of elusive animals. And all the while wowing guests with their outstanding knowledge and unforgettable stories.
Many of the rangers and trackers at Londolozi grew up living off the land and therefore have an incredible knowledge of the area and deep cultural connections to the fauna and flora. In addition Londolozi’s rangers specialise in photographic safaris and where possible will position the vehicle for the guest to get the best angle for photographic purposes.
In every excursion and adventure guests are held in the safe hands of experienced and personable rangers, the conduits through which the lasting Londolozi memories are delivered.

Londolozi Varty Camp Activities

At Londolozi Private Game Reserve the Varty family has refined the menu of activities to include a unique blend of senses and soul, creating an offering of sophisticated style and adventure that has recaptured the subtle essence of the Swahili word for journey – safari.
At Londolozi we offer spectacular Big 5 game drives in our extensive wildlife area with unsurpassed leopard viewing but this is just the beginning of what really constitutes “the Londolozi experience”.
Londolozi is the ideal space to escape from the rigours of everyday existence, to shift into a full appreciation of the moment and awaken the senses. With this in mind we have created tailor-made activities to help recuperate mind, body and spirit.
Take your pick, the list is virtually endless; silent wilderness emersions, interpretation and learning, spiritual journeying, adventure adrenalin, massage, yoga, clay pigeon shooting, all day wilderness trekking, moonlight walks, poetry, theatre, friendship and wide open spaces.

At Londolozi, superb cuisine is considered an essential part of the experience and a vital component of our philosophy.
The choice of ingredients reflects our efforts to establish right relations with the planet.
Every ingredient is chosen with care, favouring home grown organic produce, free range game and herbs from our kitchen garden to create dishes that are irresistibly delicious and healthy.
Our selection seafood is guided by the Southern African Sustainable Seafood Initiative and the number of imported ingredients is kept to a minimum.
Our recipes are a source of great pride as many have been handed down through the Varty family or were created in the Londolozi kitchen by Executive Chef Jaco Myberg. Jaco’s signature style, arises from exploring the continental fusion of Indian, Malay, Dutch, African, Portuguese and British influences in local South African dishes to create exquisite culinary experiences.
