Why we love it
A visit to Tinga can completely restore your energy after just a few days. When you’re right on the Sabie River, watching the animals and surrounded entirely by bush and sky, you really feel like you’re suspended in time and removed from the world as you know it.
With just 9 luxurious suites, each located in an utterly private spot overlooking the river, you are treated to the ultimate African luxury experience. Each of Tinga’s suites has a bathroom with in-door and outdoor shower, separate lounge area with minibar, private plunge pool and deck, 24 hour air-conditioning and a range of luxury amenities.
The Lodge style is subtle, sophisticated and serene, with grand open spaces. The main areas are double volume, opening onto a wooden deck. Sit at the fire-side in the lounge, with a glass of South African wine, appreciating your own company or that of newfound friends.
The culinary team pride themselves on good food, which is as appealing to the taste buds as it is on the eye. They are also proficient at adapting their menus to suit specific dietary requirements, and special occasions.
Tinga is an escape that everyone should enjoy at least once in their lifetime.
Set off from the Tinga Lodge to witness some of Africa's extraordinary wildlife and landscapes and see how many of the Big Five you are able to spot.
Discover a variety of animals big and small on an intimate, after breakfast guided walk around the Tinga Lodge.
Enjoy contemporary South African dishes by candlelight on the Jackalberry deck area, watching the sunset on the river.
Relax and unwind with massages, wraps, facials and Africology products to rejuvenate your body, quieten your mind and revitalise your spirit.
Observe the splendour of the Sabie River at sunset from atop the Tinyeleti Treehouse, before settling in for an once in a lifetime overnight experience.

Absolutely amazing holiday. Garonga is heaven! We did everything possible and our guide was brilliant and hilarious. I can definitely recommend True Travel for their excellent advice and professionalism – they clearly are very knowledgeable about where they send their clients and made sure we had a worry-free holiday that perfectly suited us. We were particular grateful for the collection off our flight and help onto our transfer in Johannesburg, which included a very nifty queue jump due to their reputation!
