An Exclusive Music and Wilderness Experience at Tshokwane River Camp, Kruger National Park
From 13-15 September 2024, Kruger Untamed’s Tshokwane River Camp invites nature enthusiasts to indulge in an exclusive experience, “Serenading the Untamed.” This unique event blends the beauty of the African wilderness with luxury glamping, gourmet cuisine, and an unplugged performance by the acclaimed musician Craig Hinds.
A Fusion of Wilderness and Luxury
Nestled in one of Kruger National Park’s most game-rich areas, this event offers a low-impact, high-experience retreat. Guests will be treated to gourmet cuisine, curated wine tastings, and expertly guided safari activities. The luxurious, eco-friendly tented suites provide an intimate connection with the surrounding environment, ensuring an immersive wilderness experience.

The highlight of the weekend is a starlit, acoustic performance by Craig Hinds, the frontman of the multi-platinum-selling South African band Watershed. Set in a dry riverbed, Hinds’ melodic tunes will harmonise with the nocturnal sounds of the African bush, creating a magical evening for all attendees.

The Setting: Tshokwane River Camp
Opened last year, Tshokwane River Camp is renowned for its prime location beside the Ripape River’s dry riverbed. Guests can enjoy the natural splendour of the area, staying in luxurious tented suites nestled among leadwood, rain, and sausage trees. The camp’s elegant lounging areas offer relaxation between safari excursions and wine tastings.
A Commitment to Sustainability
Kruger Untamed’s camps operate with a strong focus on sustainability. Seasonal structures are dismantled to allow the land to recover, and the camps use a combination of generators and solar power. Water conservation measures are in place, and the venture promotes youth employment and skills development within local communities.
