Honeyguide Mantobeni Camp is nestled in the private Manyeleti Private Game Reserve which borders with the world-renowned Kruger National Park, Sabi Sands Private Game Reserve, and the Timbavati Game Reserve. Honeyguide Mantobeni Camp was designed to offer an authentic tented safari experience in a pristine wildlife sanctuary.
There are 12 double comfortable tents which are nestled in a Tamboti grove and overlook a dry river bed. The tents are each set on a wooden platform and are furnished with king-size beds which can be converted into twin beds, mosquito nets, leather couches; and en-suite bathroom with a sunken concrete bath, double shower, double vanity and a separate toilet.
Lodge facilities include a reception area, a large sitting area, a dining area, a bar and an extensive climate controlled wine cellar, swimming pool with sun loungers and a viewing deck that overlooks a nearby watering hole.
Dining at the camp is communal and is usually outdoors with log fires and torches. The cuisine is simple homemade dishes and incorporates local produce. Special arrangements can be made for in-room dining and private bush dinners.
Activities offered at camp or nearby include morning and afternoon open vehicle game drives in the private reserve or in the neighboring Kruger National Park, bird watching from a newly built hide opposite a watering hole, guided hiking and walking safaris at an additional cost, plant life/flora and footprint tracking, private guided tours, and wildlife photography.
The 23 000 hectare private Manyeleti Game Reserve is one of those very few remaining 'hidden gems', boasting the famous Big Five, 517 species of birds, 147 species of mammals, 114 species of reptiles, 50 species of fish, and 33 species of amphibians.
Honeyguide Mantobeni is ideal for solo explorers, couples and families looking for a private and authentic safari experience.

Keith Chideme is fantastic!
If you’re looking for someone to help you plan the trip of a lifetime, look no further than Keith Chideme. Keith has been nothing short of extraordinary in helping me create a month-long dream trip to South Africa for myself and 11 family members. His patience, kindness, and thoughtfulness throughout the entire process have been remarkable. Keith went above and beyond, engaging in countless conversations to make sure every detail of our six-destination itinerary was just right. He worked tirelessly to balance my budget with my desire for an unforgettable experience, finding deals and creative solutions that I would never have managed on my own. His dedication and expertise gave me complete confidence that this trip will be everything I’ve dreamed of and more. One of my favorite aspects of working with Keith was the personal touch he brought to every interaction. Whether through voice messages, phone calls, or texts, he was always patient, thorough, and thoughtful in explaining every aspect of the itinerary. I never once felt rushed or overlooked—he truly cared about making this trip perfect for us. I can’t imagine planning this trip without Keith. Knowing he has my back has been such a comfort, and I feel completely at ease knowing we are in such capable hands. My entire family is incredibly excited about this incredible adventure, and I know I’ll be contacting Keith for all my future travel plans. He is an absolute gem and a true professional. Thank you, Keith, for everything!

Great advice, responsive and knowledgeable!
Pascal John at Safari.com guided me on different safari lodges (experience, rating), and most importantly knew about specials (buy 3 nights, get 4th for free) which allowed my family to secure a 5-star location at a more reasonable rate. Great advice, responsive and knowledgeable!
