Living Africa shows you the authentic place in South Africa where you experience Africa at her best: Locals, Culture & the Wild. African dreams come true!
Living Africa
Living Africa is your holiday place for a unique & unforgettable African experience! You will see the real Africa in the tribal home of the Shangaan people, one of the oldest traditional tribes of South Africa.
Listen to their authentic stories, meet the colourful people, and experience Africa’s physical beauty in Kruger National Park and Blyde River Canyon. If music and movement’s is your passion you can dance to the African beat during one of the weekly live music evenings. If laid back relaxing is your thing then check the scene at our sparkling pool or in the shady garden. Have a truly different holiday!
Lodge
What a combination! With short and long term guests from the four corners of the earth rubbing elbows with local villagers, Basambilu Lodge & Tours is a fascinating accommodation to engage in a lively conversation with a fellow traveller or village elder.
The lush garden with indigenous trees will invite you for a laid-back afternoon and the swimming pool is the spot to cool off. You can enjoy a cold drink at the palm tree lapa bar & lounge then stick around to enjoy your own set up African braai! The traditional style Rondavels will offer you a uniquely African accommodation to sleep and you’ll awaken to the chorus of hundreds of local birds.
