* MalaMala and Sable Camp only accommodate 6 guests per safari vehicle whilst Rattray’s on MalaMala limits the number of guests per safari vehicle to 4.
* MalaMala is renowned internationally for the quality of its leopard viewing. 99% of guests spending 2 nights at MalaMala will experience more than one leopard sighting a day – many of which involve other predators and most certainly prey.
The Camps:
MalaMala Game Reserve offers a range of accommodation across three camps to appeal to every type of traveller. Families are welcome at MalaMala Main Camp, where “Junior Rangers” are treated to an educational yet entertaining bush experience.
Sable Camp is the exclusive version of the Main Camp and the perfect choice for the traveller who seeks a smaller, more tranquil environment.
Rattray’s on MalaMala is the crème de la crème of the luxury safari industry. The newest addition to the MalaMala portfolio, this elegant reflection of a colonial era embodied in the timeless “Out of Africa” epic promises the ultimate exclusive safari in style, privacy and sublime comfort.

Regardless of how big a game reserve is and how many animals inhabit its plains, you may still not see the ‘Elephants for the trees” unless you are accompanied by experienced game rangers.
The MalaMala Game Reserve rangers are employed for their knowledge of the African bush and their ability to communicate with people from all over the world.
These highly qualified individuals are fascinating company and are the ideal ambassadors through which to experience the animals and the seemingly invisible language of the bush.
Apart from conducting informative game drives, the ranger also acts as host within the camp, discreetly reading the needs of his guests whilst at the same time sharing his stories, knowledge and passion of the bush with safari enthusiasts.
A day at MalaMala Game Reserve, no matter your choice of camp, combines exhilarating game viewing opportunities with a chance to relax and refresh the soul. The phenomenal wildlife, around which your experience revolves, is the priority at MalaMala, whilst the comfortable camps, wholesome cuisine and impeccable, friendly service complement this focus and we encourage our guests to immerse themselves in the experience.
For many this will be a unique lifetime experience which will be cherished forever.

On arrival at the camps within the MalaMala Game Reserve, you will be introduced to your ranger team who will be your hosts, guides and educators during your stay with us.

Whilst an itinerary will be suggested to take advantage of the more comfortable temperature ranges and the enhanced game viewing opportunities, it is also important to have time to relax and enjoy the camp surroundings and commune with the environment.

Game drives are conducted in open 4-wheel drive safari vehicles in the 40,000 acre MalaMala Game Reserve. The rangers are in constant radio communication with one another to keep each other informed about the location of the game. Headsets are used for this purpose so as not to disturb the sounds of the African bush.

The 4-wheel drive safari vehicles enable the rangers to leave the road and provide guests with close up game viewing and fantastic photographic opportunities. Night drives, with the aid of powerful spotlights, bring the bush to life at night.
The suggested itineraries are not set in stone so please discuss your requirements on your arrival with your ranger who will do his best to be as accommodating as possible within the confines of the camp routine and with consideration for your safari companions – other MalaMala guests also being hosted by your ranger team. A later departure from the camp to meet up with your safari team is possible if you prefer a relaxing morning whilst your new found safari friends want to beat the sun and get up earlier.

The rangers, camp management staff will try to accommodate the various requests from all the guests in camp but this may not always be possible or advisable.
The suggested itineraries differ between the hot summer months and the warm winter days which melt into cold evenings.

The transitional short periods of Autumn and spring will also see an adjustment to the suggested itineraries which will be determined by the temperatures experienced at the time.
