Singita Sabora Tented Camp, TanzaniaIn Africa, amidst vast savannahs and under star-strewn skies, there lies an ancient practice that transcends time: gathering around the fire.

A Journey of the Heart 💛
Africa is where time slows, and the soul awakens. The land invites you to reconnect with nature and find peace within, far from the rush of modern life.
Here, the roar of a lion, the chirp of birds at dawn, and the crackle of a campfire create a symphony that soothes the spirit. Every moment in Africa deepens your connection to the earth, enriching your soul in ways that stay with you long after you leave.
This is why we love Africa - because it’s not just a destination, but a journey of the heart. Come, fall in love with Africa, and let its magic transform you 💫

Wilderness Usawa Serengeti - an intimate way to experience Tanzania’s most famous safari destination 🍃
Imagine an endless horizon. Powder blue skies stretching over the grassland as far as the eye can see… An abundance of wildlife; grazing, drinking, breeding. Moving as one. Every species in the Serengeti lives in perfect harmony with the one beside it. It is this balance, ‘usawa’ in Kiswahili, that ensures this phenomenal ecosystem functions in perfect symbiosis. Always moving. Always changing. Always in balance.
This is Usawa, luxury mobile camp. Just like the herds of wildebeest it follows, it adapts. The flexibility of the sublime Usawa Serengeti camp allows it to move at short notice between a number of key locations across the Serengeti, ensuring guests are in the right place, at the right time, with front row seats to the unfolding drama; close to the action, far from the crowds.
With all eyes on the Serengeti and the Maasai Mara currently, Usawa Serengeti Camp is a superb option to catch a glimpse of the great migration of wildebeest and lean into some serious under canvas luxury.

OUR FIRST CLIENT TESTIMONIAL 😍
We have just had our first guests return from Tanzania and Kenya and we are beyond delighted at the extraordinary trip that was had! Planning a safari takes time, and the majority of the work happens long before anyone travels. Having started Kutwelo last year, we have been patiently waiting for the first journeys to begin and finally we are away 🙌🏽
We are so grateful for the trust that Mike put in us by giving us the chance to create this journey for him and it brings us such joy in knowing that he got to spend 3 weeks experiencing the magic of Africa. He shared the below words which mean the world to us:
“I have not long returned from the trip of a lifetime to Kenya and Tanzania, which was organised by Warrick and Chené.
I am lost for words regarding the detail involved and the passion for safari life displayed by these two wonderful people, which obviously filtered through to make my trip what dreams are made of.
Everyday was outstanding; the wildlife, accommodation, hosts and travel arrangements were all second to none.
The whole trip totally exceeded my expectations and I have absolutely no qualms about recommending Kutwelo and Warrick and Chené as your African Travel Specialists.
A thoroughly magic experience all around!” - Mike Phillips, NZ
It warms our hearts reading this we look forward to more of our guests embarking on their own trips of a lifetime over the coming months! If you have the dream of experiencing Africa, we would be honored to assist in making your dreams come true 💛 Send us a message and let’s begin creating some magic!
Ps. A huge thank you to and for taking such great care of Mike on his travels 🙌🏽

Are we the only ones who feel hyena get an unnecessarily bad rap? We blame the Lion King entirely for this, but hyena deserve some of the limelight too!
Always depicted as the conniving and unscrupulous villains, hyena are made out to be the lowest on the food chain. Often scavengers, and at times incredible hunters and apex predators, hyena do also have a soft side that we find utterly pleasurable to watch.
One of our favourite experiences whilst on safari is spending time at a hyena den. Watching these incredibly adorable hyena cubs peeking their tiny heads out of the termite mound, looking unto the world with total curiosity, is something that will never get old. Their playful nature and nurturing spirits certainly warm the soul and give us a glimpse into the lives of this fascinating creature that gets so often overlooked.
These photos were taken whilst on safari in the Sabi Sand Game Reserve - aren’t the cubs just the cutest? 🥰

An authentic, immersive experience in the heart of the Maasai Mara, Kenya - Mara Expedition Camp tells the story of early-day explorers with touches of campaign furniture and open-air space under light canvas.
Under the grove of African acacia trees, its humble main area is lit by lantern and candlelit, simple in design but just enough for all the comforts. This camp’s ambience and ‘back to the classic’ safari design will be a sure hit with private groups and safari enthusiasts looking for an authentic tented experience.
We have just had guests come back from an extensive 3-week safari of Tanzania and Kenya, and sitting atop their highlights was Mara Expedition. Being able to explore both the Maasai Mara ecosystem as well as the private Mara North Conservancy, guests are perfectly positioned for a front row seat of some of the continent’s best game viewing.
The journey of a lifetime awaits, and we are ready to help you every step of the way… Be sure to save this post for your vision board and share with the person you’d take with! 🦁

The first photos are here! 😍
Ebony Lodge, situated in the Sabi Sand Nature Reserve in South Africa, has recently reopened after undergoing a renovation and it looks incredible! The updates have been tailored to cater to the evolving preferences of modern guests, all while staying faithful to Singita’s heritage, which began 30 years ago. The renovated main guest area boasts new features such as a wine cellar and a Conservation Room, alongside multiple expansive lounge and deck spaces that promote a seamless and undisturbed flow, offering guests uninterrupted vistas of the surrounding landscape.
The layout of the main lodge has been rearranged to create a greater sense of space and fluidity. The chunky, rounded shapes of Adobe architecture (inspired by North and West Africa) combined with thatch, timber and canvas elements, and views of the Sand River, give the lodge a laid-back and light-filled feel.
Ebony is perfectly situated on the iconic sand river and offers a front row seat to some of the best game viewing on the continent. Combined with its new pared-down look of natural fabrics and softer colours inspired by nature, Ebony Lodge provides a tranquil space which both nurtures and offers a foundation for memorable wilderness adventures.
We will be visiting the new Ebony later this year, so keep following for an in-depth look at this iconic property. Can’t wait until then? Schedule a call and let’s begin planning your incredible Southern Africa safari itinerary 🙌🏽

The legend of the Kalahari 🙌🏽
has set the standard for luxury safari camps in the Kalahari for decades. As just one of three camps in a one million-acre reserve, you are guaranteed the ultimate in space and exclusivity. Boasting an impressive array of activities, including bushman walks, quad biking, horseback safaris, meerkat experiences and game drives, a stay at Jack’s Camp will keep you fully engaged.
Having recently gone through a refurb, the new Jack’s pays homage to the much-loved 1940s campaign style of the existing camp. Adorned with a classic East African safari feel, the nine guest rooms, 7 twin tents featuring two queen-size beds and 2 double tents with extra-length king beds, have almost doubled in size. Whilst the iconic green canvas and muslin-draped walls remain, each tent is embellished with Persian and North African rugs, paraffin lamps, brass fittings, luxuriant textiles and mahogany campaign furniture.
Located in Botswana’s Makgadikgadi Salt Pans, the remnants of an enormous super-lake that used to cover most of Southern Africa, Jack’s is a wonderful addition to your Botswana itinerary.
Jack Bousfield himself described the area as the “savage beauty of a forgotten Africa”, and truly, the Makgadikgadi is like nowhere on earth. It’s a landscape of space and remoteness, and the spectacular, otherworldly vistas, unique desert wildlife, and old-world glamour of Jack’s Camp all come together to create an experience that is unlike any other on the continent.

It’s 6:45am and the sun’s rays are just beginning to filter through the branches of the giant Winterthorn canopy you’re walking beneath. The dry leaves crunching under the weight of your feet, and your warm breath against the chilled air, are amongst the only sounds breaking the tranquility of...
Have you ever dreamed of a front row seat to one of the greatest shows on earth? 💫
The Great Migration of Wildebeest is a spectacle like no other. Hundreds of thousands of wildebeest journey across the Serengeti and Maasai Mara, following the rains and good grazing, battling predators and taking on astonishing river crossings. A never ending cycle that plays out year after year, offering some of the most exhilarating game viewing on the continent.
Our camp of choice when focusing on experiencing the migration is Serengeti Under Canvas. A semi-mobile tented camp, moving five times a year to better enable guests close access to this extraordinary phenomenon. A classic tented safari in soothing solitude and spectacular comfort, with only the canvas walls of your tent separating you from the wonders of the Serengeti.
Our top tip for experiencing the Great Migration: while many people flock to the Serengeti in July-September to hopefully bear witness to the crossing of the Mara River, we highly recommend a visit in February-March. Serengeti Under Canvas will be positioned in the southern areas of the Serengeti and Ngorongoro Conservation areas, in the open plains of Ndutu. During a few week period, the herds settle in these great plains and hundreds of thousands of wildebeest calves are born. Spectacular game viewing with predator interaction, breathtaking scenery and fewer crowds - an absolute must for the bucket list!

Two is company, three is a crowd! One of the most exhilarating things on safari is to watch the interactions between species. Whether that be with the same species of animal or between numerous ones, there is always something new and interesting to discover. On this particular game drive, we came across a female leopard and her cub who was then joined by her older and now independent previous litter. It’s safe to say that mom was not pleased with her older son’s presence and swiftly chased him away. Being able to witness this interaction as well as the sounds that went with it, were truly incredible! And the best part about this sighting? We had it all to ourselves!

When it comes to a safari, you should always expect the unexpected 💫 This was the case for my guests one morning when we woke up at around 4.30am to the intense sounds of a battle between lion and hyena. My tracker and I got ready, raced to the lodge and quickly whisked our guests onto the vehicle and headed out to investigate the commotion! Using our senses, we followed the sounds as they got louder and louder, until finally we appeared at the airstrip where it quickly became apparent that a pride of lions had finished feeding on a wildebeest during the night and now had a large clan of hyenas battling it out for the left overs. We turned off the vehicle and sat in awe, listening to the incredible sounds that echoed around us. This was truly a morning to remember and one which always reminds us that you never know what might happen when you are on a safari. Are you ready to experience the magic of the unexpected firsthand?

Sounds of a Liuwa Plains Campfire 🔥 Imagine… you arrive back to the lodge after an exhilarating afternoon out on game drive and are met with the enchanting call of a warm, dancing fire ahead of you. It pulls you in like a magnet and here you come together with your friends and family, other guests and the friendly staff to share stories of the many adventures you have experienced during your time in Africa. Sitting around a fire in Africa is something that we unknowingly, but subconsciously hold an ancient desire for. Ending the day entranced by its movements and being caught up in the connections and conversations made around it are moments on a safari that will leave you feeling truly alive. Take a moment to imagine this, as you watch and listen to the calls of the night around the campfire of Liuwa Plains. 📷: @timeandtideafrica • • #campfire #africa #rewilding #wild #ancientwisdom #travelafrica #zambia #liuwaplains #kinglewanikalodge #fire #connection
Turn your volume up! 🔈 Have you ever stopped in a moment, where you hear an old song on the radio and it takes you back to a fond memory? You begin to feel the emotions that this song gave you in a time gone by… If you have been privileged enough to spend time in the bush in Africa, you will understand how deep the sounds of nature penetrates into your soul. Where the simple calls of the Cape Turtle Dove or the cries of the African Fish Eagle can give you a true sense of “home”. A sense of knowing that you are in the bush, in Africa. Listening to the sounds along the Sand river at Singita Sabi Sand, take us back to memories spent in this beautiful place. Memories of the many spectacular moments spent with guests, and many quiet moments taken to be still and enjoy the calm. Whether you have spent time in the bush, or if you have never stepped foot in this magical place, we invite you to find the “Singita SoundCloud” in your next google search. Here you can find a number of sound recordings made right here, along the Sand River. Listen to the birds as they begin their morning chorus, a hippo as it makes its presence known, or the distant call of a hyena whooping in the “Sounds of Singita” track. We promise you that these sounds will transport you to, or back to, this place of miracles. • • #oursingita #singitasoundcloud #soundcloud #naturesounds #nature #stillness #africa #sabisands #sabisand #krugernationalpark #southafrica #meditation #river #flowstate #sound
