About Rhino Walking Safaris: Plains Camp and Sleep Out

  • Close Panel 

In their 12,000 hectare Kruger private concession area, Rhino Walking Safaris operates Rhino Post Safari Lodge, Plains Camp and also have a Sleep Out platform.

Plains Camp has just four luxury tents in the 'old pioneer' style, rustic yet very comfortable indeed. There is an en-suite bathroom with flush loo and hot shower. There is also a dining room and lounge, a campfire area and a small plunge pool. The camp looks out onto a wide plain where many superb wildlife sightings are often experienced.

The camp is ideal for anyone wanting a more remote camp from which to enjoy game walks. Walks of about 3-4 hours are usually taken in the cool of the mornings, then in the afternoons you are driven to a different area for a shorter walk. After sundowners you take a night drive back to camp.

The Sleep Out platform is yet another experience which Rhino Walking Safaris offers, and this is for anyone who wants to get closer to the wilderness. The elevated wooden platform has mozzie nets with sleeping bags, and there are flushing loos and a small kitchen area. You could have a night here and then walk back to Plains Camp.

Highlights

  • Very small luxury rustic camp.
  • Excellent walking safari area.
  • You can have a night on an elevated sleep-out platform.

Situation

In the Mutlumuvi concession in Kruger National Park. This is an excellent walking area, bordering Sabi Sands Game reserve. You need to arrive at Rhino Post Safari lodge no later than 2pm for a transfer to Plains Camp.

Activities

Walking safaris and game drives. Note: the sleep out platform can be out of bounds in bad weather. Also, the first people to book a date in Plains Camp get the choice of whether the Sleep out is to be used or not. Subsequent bookings will be advised of this.

Facilities

Plains is a simple rustic camp, but it does have a small plunge pool.

Child policy

Children under 12yrs can not take the walking safaris. Children can spend a night on the Sleep out platform, but they would then need to take a game drive back instead of a walk.

Inclusions

Your stay is based on full board with game activities.

Pricing guidelines for South Africa

  • Open Panel 

We hope the following will give you a rough idea of costs. These are quoted per person based on twin share for two people, without international flights but including internal flights. We’ve used good standard accommodation throughout. There are nearly always ways to spend more money than we’ve suggested (!), but these prices show a good and realistic range for each type of trip.

International flights will add from about £600 to £800 depending on the season and route (unless the airlines have special offers). South Africa combines well with Botswana, Mauritius and Mozambique.
