Overview

About Hamiltons Tented Camp

Hamiltons Tented Camp is a luxury tented camp set within a 10,000-hectare private concession inside Kruger National Park, named after Colonel Stevenson-Hamilton. The camp features spacious tented suites with teak floorboards, slipper baths, private plunge pools, outdoor salas with minibars, and private dining decks overlooking the N'waswitsontso River. Guests are connected to the main lodge area via raised timber walkways through ancient Jackalberry trees, and can enjoy open vehicle safaris and Nomadic African Spa treatments in a classic 'Out of Africa' colonial atmosphere.

“Luxury tented camp suits guests seeking colonial atmosphere; private concession in Kruger with river views and Nomadic spa treatments.”
