Camping with hippos

At Leobo, we offer the rare opportunity to camp near these incredible animals, with a spacious 4-man tent set in a large treehouse above the hippo dam. From this safe and elevated spot, you can watch as the hippos emerge from the water at night to graze. The experience often begins with a sundowner around the fire at Hippo Deck, and for the truly adventurous—often the kids—a night spent in the treehouse under the guidance of an experienced guide.

Other Experiences

There’s a range of experiences to explore at Leobo, from thrilling adventures to those that deeply connect you with the South African bush. Some experiences immerse you in wildlife, others take you further into the wilderness, and some leave you with a profound sense of awe. There are so many things to do and try at Leobo.
