Discover everything about this accommodation

Letaba Restcamp sits in a bend of the Letaba River, roughly halfway between the southern and northern boundaries of Kruger National Park. After a day of game drives or walking, it is a place to park the 4x4 for a while. From the restaurant terrace, you look across the river and the wildlife drawn towards it. Letaba means 'river of sand'. Among other animals, you may see elephants along the riverbed.

In Kruger, you scan the bush through your binoculars from your 4x4, searching for rhinos and lions. A few days later, you're looking through your diving mask at manta rays off the coast of Mozambique. On this 22-day self-drive journey, you explore three countries, each with its own distinct character. You drive through national parks at your own pace, camp by the sea and lace up your hiking boots again in eSwatini. From exciting game drives to relaxed beach days, there's no need to choose between adventure and relaxation.

That's when you put your 4x4 to work, including on the sandy Caracal Trail. A journey for those who love being outdoors and exploring at their own pace.
