Tree Tops Safari Lodge differs from our other lodges in that it is a tented camp. The luxury safari tents perched high on thatched platforms at “tree top” level are joined by raised walkways and offer spectacular views over the thickly-wooded valley.
The en-suite rooms, with their canvas walls and thatched roofs, have huge window areas and give guests the feeling of being right in the bush. Each room has a private veranda where guests can sit and relax in privacy.
Tree Top Safari Lodge is located in the Eastern Cape of South Africa, ready and waiting for you to come and experience what we have to offer.
Please note Lalibela Tree Tops Tented Camp is closed from 1 May 2017 – 31 August 2017.

Wildlife Experience
We pride ourselves on our ability to offer you the best in Big 5 game viewing. At Lalibela we are blessed to have phenomenal sightings of the Big 5 as well as the various other species that visitors so enjoy seeing.
In addition to the larger, more known wild animals, Lalibela has various lesser-known species and our rangers delight in exposing our guests to these – the curious spring hare is as fascinating as the mighty African elephant!
Apart from the wide variety of wildlife, there is a plethora of birdlife to be found on Lalibela – the keen birder can expect to spot birds on safari, at the lodge or even from the viewing deck of their room!

Lalibela Game Reserve is also home to cheetah, hyena, hippo, giraffe, zebra, warthog and numerous species of antelope, such as eland, kudu, bushbuck and wildebeest. On thrilling sunset drives under the vast African sky, we also search for the elusive bat-eared fox, aardvark, black-backed jackal, aardwolf and the curious spring hare.

We stayed at Tree Tops for two nights. It was our first experience of safari so we were a little bit anxious about what should happen. But we had a very professional, educational and engaged ranger so all fear disappeared immediately. All members of the staff were committed to give all the guests a memorable experience. The food was really tasty. – Ove M
We stayed for 2 nights in the Tree Tops lodge. The staff were great and we were extremely well looked after with a constant supply of food and drinks. The game drives were fun, educational and we got incredibly close to some amazing animals! – Alex H
We stayed at Tree tops for 3 nights and had a great time. The staff were very friendly and our ranger CeCe was very knowledgeable and managed to find all the animals we hoped to see. The rooms were very comfortable and the food was really great, too much, we were a few pounds heavier when we left camp!! I would recommend this to anyone, it was certainly an experience that was more than we could have hoped for. – Beverley C
