The lodge
Shamwari means “friend” and this game reserve certainly lives up to that name.
Bayethe Tented Lodge
Tented luxury and riverine privacy. "By-ye-ti", the welcoming salutation you will receive on your arrival at this splendid stone walled and thatch roofed lodge. Absorb the pulse of the African bush from the viewing deck, framed by riverine trees and overlooking river pools where antelope venture a twilight drink and crowned eagles glide on the darkening sky. Bayethe Lodge offers the ultimate in luxury, tented accommodation. Each of the nine tents are nestled along the bed of the river, camouflaged under trees allowing ample privacy and unsurpassed comforts. Each tent is air-conditioned and heated and has an en-suite bathroom, shower, private plunge pool and viewing deck.

Activities include morning and evening game drives or walking safaris, accompanied by your personal ranger. Shamwari Game Reserve prides itself on the knowledge and professionalism of their rangers.
In between game drives your time is filled with relaxing, reading, spa treatments, swimming, enjoying delicious cuisine, or a visit to one of the two Born Free Big Cat Sanctuary.
