Founders Camp honours past guests and staff who contributed to building Londolozi Game Reserve. Their efforts developed and distilled our common mission over the course of many decades.
Enchanting, intimate and child-friendly, Founders Camp is ideally situated to provide an insider’s view to the secrets of river life.
In 1993, Londolozi became the first game reserve to be accorded Relais & Châteaux status, placing it among the world’s top luxury destinations.

Ten idyllic superior chalets repose in the shade of ancient matumi trees along the banks of the Sand River.
Three of these superior chalets have been especially designed to accommodate families on safari with a convertible children’s room. All suites have king sized beds, indoor and outdoor showers along with private plunge pools.
Facilities
This lodge has a ‘Bushveld Bohemia’ style in which nature-based colours are accentuated by wallpaper and handmade cushions for a contemporary safari feel. Founders Camp uses recycled elements of nature in their most natural and raw form.
Founders Camp is also home to the Londolozi Yoga Deck, a wonderful sanctuary suspended high in the arms of a 500-year-old ebony tree. Inclusive daily classes are held, whilst nyala, bushbuck and monkeys abound. On special occasions elephants will move through the riverine bushveld below.

Game drives at Londolozi are taken by professional, passionate and knowledgeable Rangers and Trackers, who have 350 years of experience between them. With over 16,000 hectares of traversing wilderness, no two game drives are ever the same.
Trackers sit up at the front of the Land Rover looking for fresh animal tracks, while Rangers drive with astonishing skill into ravines and through thickets in pursuit of rare animal sightings, simultaneously wowing guests with their knowledge and unforgettable stories.
Activities include: Bush Walks, Village Experiences, Good Work Foundation Community Experience, Yoga Classes and Massages.
