Activities at Tintswalo Manor House

Game viewing at Tintswalo takes place on foot or in individually seated open game vehicles. The vehicles are fully equipped with spotlights for night viewing, radios for communication, mosquito repellent, ponchos for wet weather, and individual blankets to keep guests cosy if nights turn chilly. Guests are ensured to enjoy a truly five-star wildlife-viewing experience at Tintswalo Manor House by placing a canvas ‘goody’ bag containing binoculars, reference books, and treats on each seat for their use before the drive begins. Walks in the reserve are guided through the ever-changing environment of the African bush. This experience allows you the opportunity to come away with information on local wildlife, and insight into the local Shangaan traditions. All of our experienced and professional guides are fully accredited, and are always accompanied by skilled trackers who know their surroundings well. Afternoon game-viewing is followed by a sunset sun-downer stop, and your day is perfectly rounded off with a magnificent candlelit dinner.

Tripadvisor comments about Tintswalo Manor House

We stayed with another family in Tintswalo Manor House. It sleeps a maximum of 10 and we had 9 in our group. ... The home was comfortable, and the sleeping arrangements worked perfectly. The staff quickly let you know the schedule and you do adapt quickly rising at 5:00 a.m. for your morning drive (3.5 hours) and an afternoon drive (3.5 hours) at 4:00 p.m. Not much time to sleep at night, but that is not what you are there to do. Our group was lucky and saw the big five plus the wild dogs (twice) which is rare. Animals sightings were so plentiful--AMAZING!

The accommodations at the Manor House are 4-star and perfect for families. The food is plentiful and the service excellent. The watering hole directly in front of the house was a very popular spot for buffalo, elephant and waterbuck...and we also had visits from a lion and a leopard. For those looking for more luxury, the nearby Tintswalo Lodge has 5-star accommodations.
