Go for a South African safari at Ka’Ingo Private Reserve & Spa

Spend your South African safari at Ka’Ingo Private Reserve & Spa situated in the malaria-free Waterberg area in the heart of the African bushveld. Ka’Ingo is your one-stop-shop for a successful and enjoyable South African safari. Whatever is needed for your South African safari you will find at KaIngo Private Reserve & Spa - from big five animals to bush wine tastings to luxury accommodation. Ka’Ingo Private Reserve & Spa forms part of the Zorgvliet Portfolio; a luxury experience brand that specialises in giving guests authentic experiences.

Luxury Accommodation at Ka’Ingo’s Main Lodge

For the duration of your South African safari reside at Ka’Ingo’s Main Lodge situated in the centre of the Reserve surrounded by the bush and mountains. Main Lodge consists of 12 en-suite thatched rooms and can accommodate a maximum of 24 guests. Each fully air-conditioned room is equipped with the modern comforts of a mini bar, telephone, safe, tea and coffee making facility, ceiling fan, iron, and hairdryer. All the suites at Ka’Ingo have their own private decks with breathtaking views across the green luscious garden which can also be utilized for a romantic South African safari dinner for two.

Big Five Game drives

A South African safari is a wonderful way to experience a true African holiday. Ka'Ingo offers big five game drives in open 4x4 game viewing safari vehicles twice a day, which is included in your leisure South African safari accommodation package. During your game drives you will get to view the 4000 head of game that inhabit Ka’Ingo and see their beauty and behaviour in natural surroundings.

Bush Wine Tastings during your South African safari

For an unconventional and unique experience, go for a Sundowners Wine Tasting in the bush during your South African safari. You will be introduced to the award winning Zorgvliet wines and taste different flavours before deciding on your favourite. Your set up will be done in the bushveld where you can appreciate the calming sounds of nature while enjoying an informal and relaxing wine tasting experience.

If you want to bring your children for your South African safari you can do so because Ka’Ingo is child friendly. They will be amused with activities offered at Ka’ingo including:

  • Learning about the stars - star-gazing for kids and adults. Grab a sleeping bag and lie on the deck at the Main Lodge for star-gazing.
