Special MalaMala Game Reserve

Pay 3 Stay 4 Special

MalaMala Game Reserve is one of the largest private Big Five game reserves in South Africa. Comprising 13 300 ha (33 000 acres), MalaMala shares a 19 km (12 mile) unfenced border with the world-renowned Kruger National Park, and lies strategically sandwiched between the National Park and the Sabi Sand Reserve. MalaMala Rattray's Camp is the most luxurious of MalaMala's camps, and offers a glimpse of an era long past when distant travellers to Africa married the magic of the wild with an elegance and refinement that have been immortalized in the epic tale of Karen Blixen in 'Out of Africa'. The epitome of regal classic safari-style, MalaMala Rattray's Camp bears the style of crystal and leather, with beautiful furnishings that are a treat to the connoisseur of the finer things in life.
