- We recently spent a weekend winter camping with a group of friends at Matamba Bush Camp, situated near the town of Vaalwater, in the Limpopo Province of South Africa.
Matamba is located inside a private game farm. We stayed at Mara's Camp, a private camp inside Matamba. Mara's Camp is off-grid, so a good battery and solar panel are essential. There are two outdoor ablutions, open to them elements which offer a unique experience. The ablutions and camp site are well maintained, and cleaned daily.
There is another camp site within Matamba called Tau Camp Site. This camp offers electrified stands for those who are looking for a bush camp experience, but don't have the necessary solar equipment.
More information on the campsite, include contact and booking information can be found at www.matambabushcamp.com
My 4x4 offramp camping trailer is a Metalian Bowhunter trailer with a Tentco Junior TTT. My vehicle is a Ford Ranger Wildtrak (Thunder Edition) 2.0l bi-turbo diesel, with a Front Runner Slimline II rack fitted over the load bed, a Front Runner SlimSport rack on the roof, and a Front Runner Roof Top Tent.

Great video! Love the content! Keep them coming.
Thanks mate. Appreciate the support!
Absolute excellent video, great HD awesome audio, very well put together LOVED IT !!!!! We stayed there a long while ago when the wood was for free everyday. They sadly now charge for it due to people driving off home with it. A bit too far for a regular weekend we found, however when we went there it was for 5 nights in one shot.
Matamba is amazing. You are right though, a stretch too far for a regular weekend. 3 nights minimum for us next time!
..cool video keep up the great content... Thank you…
Thanks for the support! 👊🏻
@@CampSeekerAfrica Thank you very mutch... have a nice Weekend.... see you….
nice video. one day we will meet up on those camp sites
Thanks for watching! 😊
Great video! Keep it up. Matamba is really nice. That sunset scene…beautiful. Want to ask you, are you happy with the Tentco trailer tent? I’m planning on getting one but want to get check it out first.
Thanks for the support 😊 You are right, Matamba is awesome, and we were treated to a beautiful sunset. We are happy with the Tentco tent. We like the space that it gives us, and the bed is comfortable. We’ve got the Junior, so just the tent and front awning area. If you are looking for bigger with additional annex rooms, rather go for the Senior. Your other option is to go for a simple roof-top tent like the Front Runner, but then you lose the “room” on the side, which is handy for changing in, and storing stuff on longer trips.
Really amazing experience! What awning are you using? And is there a minimum number of people required for a group booking?
Matamba is fantastic! It’s a Front Runner awning on the Ranger. Not sure if there is a minimum number to be honest.
Which camp site would you recommend for first timers?
We stayed at Mara’s Camp, which is perfect if you are in a group. Only one group can book the site at a time, so you have it all to yourself. The other campsites all looked good, but not having stayed in the other camp, I can’t recommend one site being better than the other. Overall though, Matamba is amazing and I am sure no matter which site you choose, you will have a brilliant trip!
