Sleep Under the Stars
Originating from the early days of safari, fly camping takes its name from the “fly sheet” once used as makeshift shelter by hunters. Today, it’s a raw and immersive way to experience the wild. Your fly camping adventure at Laluka begins with a guided bushwalk through Big 5 territory, heightening your senses and revealing the landscape from a new perspective. As you arrive at camp, everything is set up – just in time to enjoy a drink by the fire, savour a traditional meal, and fall asleep under a canopy of stars, serenaded by the sounds of nature.
Farm-to-Fork Food
Meals at Laluka are crafted with fresh, organic ingredients sourced from the lodge’s own farm. The menu combines local flavors with modern twists, complemented by handpicked South African wines for a truly memorable dining experience. With the team having been trained by a Michelin-starred Belgian Chef, international innovation and prestige is also served up on every plate.
Unforgettable Safaris
Go beyond the usual game drives with expert guides who bring the landscape and wildlife to life with their fascinating insights.
