Tourism News | Activities

Hoedspruit, South Africa, September 2025, Bundox Safari Co. is proud to unveil its latest offering: River of Life, a 3 to 5 night safari experience set along the banks of the Olifants River in Greater Kruger.

This package invites travellers to trade the din of daily life for nature’s soundtrack, hippo grunts, fish eagle calls and lion roars echoing across the water.

The new itinerary combines stays at the luxurious Amava River Lodge, the back‑to‑basics Bundox Explorer Camp and the rustic, conservation‑focused Khanya Camp. Guests will enjoy uninterrupted wildlife viewing from their private decks as elephants, buffalo and colourful birdlife visit the river for a drink, all while supporting Bundox’s conservation and community initiatives.

“The Olifants River is our lifeline,” said a representative of Bundox Safari Co. “We wanted to create a package that honours this ecosystem and allows guests to experience the magic of the river without compromising on comfort or purpose. Our River of Life journey is a gentle love affair with wild Africa.”

Experience Wildlife Without the Chase
At Amava River Lodge, mornings begin with coffee and the sight of elephants crossing the misty river. The camp’s design blends seamlessly into the jackalberry trees and offers spacious tented suites with king‑size beds, en‑suite bathrooms and private decks. Guests enjoy restaurant‑quality meals served al fresco while watching hippos, crocodiles and countless bird species along the water’s edge.

The adventure continues at Bundox Explorer Camp, a Big 5 concession where authenticity trumps opulence. Canvas tents are simple yet comfortable, featuring en‑suite bathrooms with bucket showers and flush toilets. Days are spent on guided bush walks and open‑vehicle safaris, while evenings unfold around the campfire, sharing stories under a canopy of stars.

At Khanya Conservation Camp, guests reconnect with nature and purpose. The camp’s Meru‑style tents overlook a bustling waterhole where buffalo graze and predators drink. Solar‑powered amenities, guided conservation activities and community engagement opportunities allow visitors to give back while enjoying an off‑grid safari.

Conservation at Heart
Bundox has long championed sustainable tourism. The River of Life package supports anti‑poaching operations, habitat restoration and community empowerment projects in the Greater Kruger region. A portion of every booking funds these initiatives, ensuring that the very wildlife guests come to see continues to thrive.

“Responsible travel isn’t just a trend; it’s the future of safaris,” added a representative of Bundox Safari Co. “By staying with Bundox, guests contribute directly to protecting the Olifants River ecosystem and supporting local communities who act as custodians of these wild places.”
