Description

A One Bedroom Suite at Tiger Canyon Private Game Reserve

Perched on the edge of a cliff, the Tiger Canyon Private Game Reserve extends over 5,000 square feet. You will be staying in a stunning double bedroom, 360 square foot suite which features a private balcony with spectacular views of the namesake canyon. This exclusive space is elegantly styled in fine furnishings inspired by the landscape.

This luxurious property is located in a remote part of the canyon. Tucked below the horizon, the building is hidden from the surrounding game drive areas. This off-grid eco-lodge is designed to provide maximum comfort with minimal environmental impact.

Witness, cocktail in hand, the big sky deepen across the canyon. Relax by the glorious outdoor pool as the sun sets over the Karoo, and gather around the fire to share starlit stories.

Catered game drives (included) depart early in the early morning and the late afternoon for scouted tiger sightings. These times also provide the best light for your photographs, especially when the afternoon slips into the famous golden hour — a window of light when the landscape softly glows.

Tiger Canyon is an ex-situ conservation project that has established a sanctuary for wild Bengal tigers in the South African heartland: today the reserve is home to the only population of wild tigers outside of Asia.

With the completion of the off-grid and exclusive Tiger Canyon Private Game Reserve, Tiger Canyon has merged conservation with ecotourism: guests are able to witness the success of this groundbreaking conservation model first-hand, viewing wild tigers in a natural and free environment in the rugged beauty of the Karoo.

Unbelievably Wonderful

As a frequent visitor to many countries in Africa and to safari life, I was absolutely blown away by the caliber of the guides, the animal interaction and the hospitality of Tigress Lodge. In fact, after spending weeks on safari in both Kenya and Tanzania prior to my trip to Tigress Lodge, I can say without hesitation that my time in Tiger Canyon was beyond compare. Put this place on your bucket list!! Lisa Foley”
