Kirkman's Kamp is named after Harry Kirkman one of South Africa 's first conservationists and occupies a prime position in the eastern part of the Sabi Sand private game reserve. This part of the Sabi Sands actually borders the Kruger National Park and is particularly known for its excellent wildlife sightings.

The elegant Kirkman's Kamp is on an elevated site overlooking the Sand River with glorious views of the bushveld. It is one of the original and best loved of all the Sabi Sands lodges, oozing with old colonial charm, reminiscent of a traditional 1920's safari camp. You seem to step back in time when you enter the original homestead which is now the lodge's sitting room, bar and dining area. The french doors open out onto rolling lawns which provide a dramatic contrast to the wild bushveld beyond the river. The 20 air-conditioned bedrooms are simple, spacious and attractive, with private verandas overlooking the riverbed, and ensuite bathroom with ball and claw baths and separate shower. A stylish rimflow pool, tennis court and gym adds to your overall enjoyment. Breakfast and lunch are served on the veranda whilst dinners are either in the lantern-lit boma or in a romantic bush setting.

The Sabi Sand game reserve is renowned for its exceptional Big Five game viewing given its rich soils which produce excellent grazing and browsing habitats. This attracts the plains game which in turn attracts the predators, most notably lion and leopard. Morning and afternoon game drives are on offer along with interpretative bush walks accompanied by professional rangers and trackers.

Children are welcome at Kirkmans Kamp with one child able to share their parent's room. Only children of 6 and upwards can join a game drive. Access to Kirkmans Kamp is either via a road transfer from Kruger International Airport or you can fly into either Mala Mala or Skukuze airstrip and have a short 30 minute transfer to the lodge.
