At Little Saseka, families and groups of friends can enjoy their own private-use safari space within Saseka Tented Camp. The area features a spacious living and dining room with an expansive private deck and pool overlooking the Monwana riverbed. Little Saseka now accommodates up to six guests, offering a more generous and versatile private-use experience. This includes an extended main deck with a new firepit and additional outdoor dining space, along with two brand-new suites connected by a decked walkway.
Little Saseka was created by iconic architects Silvio Rech and Lesley Carstens and is a design masterclass in the juxtaposition of old and new. The luxury tent is a reinterpretation of the canvas ones used by settlers during the early Gold Rush that has been combined with 21st century texture and style. Every detail has been inspired by history and love of the land, and this radiates from the staff, who are passionate about the area.
With a personal chef and dedicated butler, you really won’t need to do more than relax and unwind with your family. Spend the day by the pool, snooze in the afternoon or indulge in a wellness treatment on your private deck. Our staff can also keep the kids busy with a range of fun and educational activities.
Game drives are in a private open-air safari vehicle with your own expert guide and tracker, which gives you the freedom to plan your own day. You can explore 15 000 hectares of unspoiled bush in the Greater Kruger Park area, home to some of the most diverse concentrations of wildlife in South Africa. Children over 12 can join adults in Saseka’s main area. (thorny bush)
Little Saseka can accommodate up to six guests in total, combining the main tent and the two adjacent tented suites. It’s an ideal private-use setting for families or groups of friends, offering the luxury of the bush in a prime, uninterrupted setting.

Early morning and late afternoon game drives
The day starts as dawn breaks over the African bushveld. After an early morning wake-up call, coffee, tea and rusks are served on the main deck. Shortly after, depart in an open Land Cruiser with experienced Guides and Trackers who will share their extensive knowledge of the bush. These drives are undertaken at times best suited for game viewing which varies depending on the season but typically starts early morning. Where applicable you may be invited out of the vehicle to see tracks, examine certain plants and follow spoor. The afternoon game drive is preceded by high tea and extends into the evening to view seldom seen nocturnal species by torchlight.
Guided Bush Walks
After a sumptuous Breakfast is served either back at the camp or in the riverbed or bush, guests are offered walks to suit their interests and fitness levels and are accompanied by an armed guide and tracker. Walks allow guests a better chance to see some of the smaller creatures of the bush as well as an opportunity to learn more about the flora and fauna of the region, and to have a chance to follow tracks in more detail.
Hot Air Balloon Excursion
One-hour long flight over the scenic, Lowveld section of the Blyde River. As the sun rises, the landscape, the vegetation and, if you're lucky, some wildlife will provide photo opportunities. Game spotting cannot be guaranteed but on most flights, we see plains game such as giraffe and wildebeest.
