Londolozi is about animals and family. If you want an amazing and heart-felt experience where the staff call you by your first name and where the conservation of majestic animals is the primary ethos of the lodge, then Londolozi is the place for you. Londolozi is filled with the legends of Africa. From the Varty family who built and run... More

Our 3 days at the Founders Camp were simply great. The accommodations were excellent, newly remodeled, very spacious, comfortable, with a king size bed with a first class mattress, luxurious linen and great pillows. The bathroom was well appointed, with all kinds of amenities and separate interior and exterior showers. A small round pool equipped with a jacuzzi stream was... More

After spend tree days at Londolozi, it is difficult to go back to a normal life. I just got back last night and what a memorable experience! The staff is exceptional and treat you like family. I could not imagine better guides than Tom and Jerry! The facilities left not to be desired! The food was excellent.

Just got back from S. Africa and our safari there - "Camp" is a ridiculous way to describe Londolozi! It's complete luxury in the middle of the game preserve - Staff is terrific, game drivers and guides extremely well-versed and the animals so plentiful that you can't help seeing "the big five"! We were a group of eight who booked... More

Londolozi boast that they are one of the original luxury camps that others have copied as a model and I think they are justified in that claim. It runs like clockwork with a high staff ratio who genuinely anticipate your every need. It's true luxury travel. The rooms contain everything a visitor could possibly need, especially important if you are... More

We, a family of four, stayed at the Londolozi Founders Camp during December 2012, for 4 nights. The trip was arranged through one of the travel agents that is used by Londolozi. I caught on this camp after happening on their website when frantically looking for suitable safari camps in South Africa while searching (far too late) in the year.... More

Stayed at Londolozi Founders camp in late August, first time on safari and already planning to return the same time next year. Having travelled the world and staying in the best hotels, this is by far the most valued experience.
