My fiance and I spent our new years with Tydon and loved every minute of it. Benji and Steve were our guides and both were extremely knowledgeable and passionate. Strongly recommend and really hope to go back someday.
We visited Tydon Safari in May 2017. Our group of ten had some amazing experience over the 3N/4D stay at the camp. The camp provides a fine balance of rustic and comfort accommodation and a personal touch by the owner Gavin and his wife who...More
We visited Tydon Safari Camp in April and it was our first experience in Africa. We enjoyed the camp and the excellent guides. Greg, Stephen and Dirkson were all excellent. It was wonderful that they arranged to have us picked up in Joburg and taken...More
Me and my wife stayed there for 3N/4D and it was fantastic! The location was close to both Sabi Sands (which is essentially next to it) and Kruger (about 20 min driving) and both places were amazing. the crews were all helpful and very kind/knowledgable...More
Did a last minute booking to stay at the Tydon camp. Was picked up from my hotel in johannesburg and dropped back after 2 days.
The camp is just outside a Kruger (about 5 kms) and right at the entrance of Sabi Sands game reserve....More
We are thinking of going to Tydon camps this November 2017. Is that typically a rainy month? Would rather not go then if it is raining every day. Also as it it spring, are there more leaves on the trees so harder to spot animals?

I was there in late october and I would have welcomed rain as they were in a bad drought. November is supposed to be the beginning of the rainy season, but I wouldn't worry about it.

Hi, my fiancé and I are coming to Africa next September for our honeymoon. We are still deciding locations but bumped into someone yesterday who stayed here so thought I'd check it out. A couple of questions - is it easier to book this place through a travel agent or direct? What are the different camps? My main concern is that children are allowed here (I don't hate kids or anything, just not many people allow young kids so wondering what the difference is here) are they youngsters or just older kids? Don't want drives being spoilt by small whingey kids!

Hi Lucy.
1. I booked through africanbudgetsarfari and had no problems whatsoever. I am sure you can book directly with Tydon if you wish. I didn't actually know ABS were an agent when I booked with them.
2. There were 2 camps: 1 smaller one inside Sabi Sands Reserve and 1 just outside the Reserve. The smaller camp accommodates 8 people and as per my understanding, you only go on Sabi drives. From the other camp, which accommodates far more people you can go to both Sabi and Kruger drives. The reason we split our visit was to be able to go to both Kruger and to Sabi Sands as they both have their ups and downs. Both camps have almost identical tents and accommodation including all dining facilities.
3. There were no children when we went at either of the camps. However I think this last question would be better directed at Tydon Safaris, as I'm a traveller like you so can't comment on their bookings at your time of travel etc or their policies.
