Location:
 |
Tintswalo is an exclusive bush lodge under traditional grassing, in
the Manyeleti reserve, Kruger Park. Manyeleti -- ‘place of the stars’
to the indigenous Shangaan tribesmen -- is a magnificent slice of the
African wilderness.
Situated within the greater Kruger National Park, the Manyeleti
reserve is known for its proliferation of game. It is bounded to the
north by the Timbavati reserve of the white-lion fame, and to the
south by the Sabi Sands reserve.
The eastern boundary
adjoins the Kruger National Park, and with no fences between the
reserves, a huge variety of wildlife -- approximately 105 different
mammal species and 450 bird species -- roam free. |

All the spacious air – conditioned suites are positioned along
the seasonal Nwaswitsontso river with a view of the waterhole

main complex also overlooks the sycamores and watering hole, and
all parts of the lodge are linked by wooden walkways. |
