You can look forward to an immersive African bush experience at Marc’s Tented Lodge. This rustic small lodge will accommodate you in a stilted wood, canvas and thatch unit set in the riparian forest that fringes the Klaserie River as it runs through Motlala Game Reserve. Despite the bush feel, treehouses all have fans, nets and private bathrooms. There are also viewing decks from where birders can look out for forest specialists such as Narina trogon, purple-crested turaco and trumpeter hornbill. Motlala is home to three of the Big Five (rhino, buffalo and leopard) as well as giraffe, zebra, hyena and nyala antelope, and it forms a good base for day safaris into Kruger National Park.
