TREMISANA GAME LODGE is situated in the Balule section of Kruger Park and is therefore a Big Five lodge. All rooms have en-suite bathrooms and air-conditioning. The beautiful gardens and water features create an oasis of peace and tranquility. Tremisana is one of the leading private game lodges in the Balule Game Reserve where guests can feel at home in this small African paradise.

Guests at Tremisana can enjoy a variety of safari options. These include bush walks, late afternoon game drives in the Balule Game Reserve and full day open vehicle safari into the Kruger Park.

There are a total of 12 chalets and a two-bed room Guest House at Tremisana. Every unit has a thatched roof, air-conditioning, en suite bathroom (shower, toilet, basin), tea/coffee station and insect-proof screens fitted on all windows.

Guests can relax around the splash pool or enjoy the views from the covered lapa overlooking the nearby waterhole. Traditional dinners are served in the open air boma around a crackling fire. A wonderful way to end an exhilarating day on safari.

Tremisana's beautiful gardens boasts numerous palms, bougainvilleas and cycads which give the camp a subtropical atmosphere. The water features add a soothing effect adding to the overall peaceful feel at Tremisana. At night, the subdued garden lights lend a romantic and magical flavour to this outstanding camp.

Game Viewing at Tremisana

Tremisana offers some excellent sightings of animals around its perimeters and all of the Big Five ( Lion, Elephant, Rhino, Buffalo and Leopard) have been seen as well as cheetah and wild dog. The Tremisana Dam attracts an a large number of animals all year round, especially in winter, when this dam is the only permanent water source for a radius of over five km. Elephant, lion and buffalo are seen regularly.

A troop of Vervet Monkeys has made Tremisana their permanent home and their antics amuse and enthrall our guests. At night, the roars of lions and the wails of jackals are often heard and serve as a reminder that we are in wild Africa.

GAME DRIVES

Using open game drive vehicles, the Sunset Drive leaves Tremisana Lodge at 17h00 and returns to the lodge at around 19h00. In mid-summer, we return a little later so as to facilitate spotlit game viewing after dark.

The Sunrise Drive leaves the Game Lodge at 05h30 and incorporates a 1 hour bush walk and returning back to Tremisana at between 07h30 and 08h00.

BUSH WALKS

There is a world of difference between experiencing an African Safari on a vehicle to one on foot. Bush walks enable one to be much closer to the African wildlife. It gives you a appreciate the smaller wonders of nature, walk along the same game paths the animals use and become deeply entrenched in their very space.
