Friendly staff, committed to duty and above all very knowledgeable of their work
Nothing. Since we were there only one night, perhaps we did not have enough time to see any negative aspects

We absolutely LOVED our stay here! Before booking, I sent Sausage Tree quite a few questions and they were always quick to respond – and unfailingly friendly and patient. Things only got better once we arrived to a warm welcome and had a chance to take in the grounds. The camp is gorgeous, and with only 5 tents, it also feels very intimate. One of my absolute favorite aspects about the camp is that the owner and our game drive guide/tracker ate their meals with guests, family-style. It was awesome getting to know them and hearing all their stories! You will arrive as a stranger and leave feeling like you are part of the family.
Now to the game drives: Our guide and tracker, Themba and Polite, were fantastic! Not only were they incredibly fun and knowledgeable, but they also had an uncanny ability to somehow spot completely hidden animals and identify every bird by its sound. Themba and Polite not only found the Big 5 for us, but if we mentioned another animal we wanted to see, they would try their hardest to find it for us. They seem to know every inch of the huge Balule Nature Reserve on which Sausage Tree is located so every day we saw new scenery and learned something new. Also, even when we got very close to the animals we never felt we were at risk, as Themba and Polite are well versed in the signs animals give off and understand when it is safe to get closer and when to back off. It was such an adventure!
The camp is surrounded by a fence so you can walk around by yourself, but since you are in a tent you can still hear the animals while you sleep. And speaking of the tents – this is definitely a glamping experience. The tents have a comfortable bed, electricity/Wi-Fi, and a separate indoor bathroom with a tub. Last but not least, the food: wow! I am a vegetarian and the camp’s main chef, Peter, always went out of his way to create special meals for me.
Very minor issue, but I wish there had been an indoor standing shower (instead of just an outdoor shower and an indoor tub with a handheld shower head). I never used the outdoor shower because (1) it felt a little exposed to the rest of the camp (though the only way anyone could see anything is if they were to walk by the front of your tent, which they aren’t supposed to do for privacy reasons) and (2) I was nervous about creepy crawlies dropping on my head (we had a big spider in our bathroom [indoors] one night, for instance). Make no mistake – just because it is luxury (and spotlessly clean) does not mean there isn’t still an element of the wild! If you can get past the possibility of a few bugs in your tent though, you will absolutely love this place.

Very nice safari camp at a beautiful location. The guides, trackers and other staff are really friendly, experienced and helpful. The tents are comfortable and the food is great. Hence our stay at Sausage Tree was a very special, hopefully not once in a lifetime, experience!

The Sausage Tree Safari Camp team is so nice, they know how to do your travel interesting, comfortable, welcoming, amazing!! The lodge makes you fell really inside the nature, although it has all amenities you need. The food is delicious. The game drivers are the star, following Themba directions and Matt guiding we learn all the time about the wildlife, the bush, the animals, the Africa.
