"It was a wonderful stay at Tembe. The tents were clean, well equipped and comfortabel. The Tembe tribe welcome you and say good bye to you with a song. The restaurant has a new thatched roof.
Everything looks very professional. The old plastic chairs don«t fit to the new outlay and hopefully ..."

"We had a fantastic time at the Tembe Elephant Park. The local staff cares and works hard to make stays special. The terrain of the park is unique and the guides do an excellent job of tracking animals. We saw lions on every drive as well as a large variety of animals."
"We stayed only two nights, but it was a great experience. We had the chance to see three lions from our car at sunset, followed by more than 30 elephants crossing our road 10 mintues later, and lots of buffalo, rhino, and of course nyala, kudu and impala. A welcome with a traditional Zulu song remin..."

Feeling so secure, being driven around by knowledgeable, experienced rangers, one is easily able to absorb the muted colours of the vegetation,tune in to the deep, natural peace and observe all the details, which abound. The senses are awakened and the smells and call..."
