Jun 12, 20200 comments

With South Africa moving from level 4 to level 3 on the 1st June, leisure accommodation is still not permissible Kapama Private Game Reserve decided to use this time as productively as possible, and commenced with the next phase of the Kapama River Lodge refurbishment project on 1st June.

To ensure our valued guests receive the best quality, service and value, Kapama has always maintained a regular refurbishment plan to keep up to date with global luxury trends and standards. This includes accommodation, facilities and features. This has been to maintain the incredibly high standard for which Kapama is renowned.

This next phase of refurbishment will include the lounge and pool deck which will be completed by July 2020. The upgrading of the 2 Royal suites as well as 33 of the standard suites into deluxe suites will be completed by 15th December. Guests can be assured there will be no interruption and no compromise on quality, luxury, value for money and more importantly the Kapama promise, during the refurbishment phase.

After the very successful addition of the 1st phase which included the new River Lodge reception area, game drive access bays, cocktail bar and pool, revealed on 1st November 2018, Kapama remains confident that this next phase for River Lodge will only heighten the luxurious feel of the 5-star establishment.

Each week, updates will be circulated with video and photos showing how the project is progressing.

We are very excited about this project and the benefit it will bring to Kapama River Lodge as well as the Kapama brand. We look forward to sharing this next chapter of the Kapama story with you.”

Interesting Facts about Baby Elephants

The reason I’m pointing this out is if young elephants are feeling uncomfortable with the presence of a vehicle they can often give out a cry of distress which will alert the bigger relatives who will often rush in and try and defend the little one.

They all grouped up and starting to run straight towards the Lions, trying to chase them off, because the Buffalos had a few young caves amongst the herd. The Lions suddenly bolted trying to get away from this massive herd of Buffalo right on their tales.

Gentle Ghostly Giants

We decided to go to a dam close by. As we haven’t had much rain, the bushveld is extremely dry. The elephants seemed to have moved in the direction of one of the few dams which still holds some water. We stopped at the dam...but nothing. Had we missed them again?
