- Simbavati Hilltop: $8,548.19
- This is a great value location option in the Timbavati Reserve near Kruger National Park. It has a plunge pool and a large room. The camp has only six rooms, so it’s very private.
- Option to stay at Trails Camp for a couple of nights if you want some adventure and a lower price.
- Dulini River: $12,292.34
- This is one of my favorite honeymoon camps in the private Sabi Sands reserve near Kruger National Park. It offers top-notch style, tiny camps, and great game drives. Sabi Sands costs a bit more because of its reputation as the premier reserve, but this is a good value for the money.
- Tanda Tula: $12,190.58
- This camp has been recently refurbished with a more contemporary design. Great location in Timbavati Reserve near Kruger.
