Sanbona Wildlife Reserve is a unique safari destination, set at the foot of the towering Warmwaterberg Mountains in the Little Karoo, situated between Montagu and Barrydale, in the Western Cape. The reserve epitomises an atmosphere of seclusion.

Dwyka Tented Lodge has accommodation available in 9 luxury tents, with private decks and plunge pools; set in a horseshoe bend of a dry Karoo ravine. Tilney Manor offers 6 spacious suites which are open-plan and each lead out onto a private verandah.

Conservation is paramount at Sanbona and every guest contributes to preserving this wilderness for future generations.

More than a Big 5 wilderness reserve, it’s the vastness of the landscape, the alluring stillness and isolation amid raw beauty and boundless plains that make Sanbona unique.
