About Limpopo

Northern Kruger (Phalaborwa, Punda Maria, Shingwedzi) is where you get the game drives to yourself, fewer tourists, more animals. The Waterberg plateau is malaria-free and includes Marakele National Park plus a bunch of private reserves. Bela-Bela's hot springs are a classic family stop on the way north. If you push further, the Soutpansberg near Louis Trichardt has hiking trails, waterfalls, and subtropical birding that'll impress even casual birders. Mapungubwe National Park in the far north is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, ancient Iron Age history and Big Five in the same park.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does the price on Kampi actually cover?
What you pay is the owner's rate for the camper plus Kampi's service fee for handling the booking and the payment. Where a camper carries Kampi cover, that cover costs R89 a day; not every camper carries it, some owners carry their own instead, and the camper's own page says which. There is no once-off admin fee. That was Kampi's pricing before 1 July 2026, and a booking made before that date can still show it. Most owners also add a once-off cleaning fee, and every owner asks for a refundable damage deposit. The camper's own page shows both, and what your dates come to, before you send a request.
How are the rental days counted?
Every day of the trip is charged, including the day you collect the camper and the day you bring it back. A Friday to Sunday trip is three days, not two, because both the collection day and the return day count.
When does the money actually move?
On most campers, nothing is charged when you send a request. You only pay once the owner approves it, and owners have 3 days to answer. A few campers are set up for instant booking instead and charge as soon as you book, the camper's own page says which. Either way, you pay Kampi online, never the owner directly.
Do I need a special licence to tow it?
Not necessarily. Up to 750kg you can tow on an ordinary Code B licence, the same one most drivers already have. Over that you need a Code EB. Every camper's page says which one it needs, and Kampi has a whole page of campers that need no EB at all.
What if I need to cancel, or something goes wrong?
Cancel a request before you have paid and nothing is owed, because nothing was ever charged. Once you have paid, cancelling before the trip starts means a non-refundable booking fee of up to R189 may apply, and the rest is refunded according to the camper's policy. Cancelling once the trip has started, or on a listing with no cancellation policy set, refunds nothing at all: not the rate, not the cleaning fee, not the cover. The camper's own page shows its exact cancellation policy before you book, and it is worth reading before you pay.
Who am I actually renting from?
A private owner, not a franchise or a depot. Sending a request opens a message thread with them under their name, so you can talk before you pay anything. Their phone number and the exact pickup address open up once you have paid, not at the moment they approve. You collect the camper from them in person. Most owners have had an ID document, proof of address and the camper's papers approved by Kampi before their listing went live, though not every one of them has. There is no corporate credit or background check beyond that. What else stands behind them is the reviews they have earned on Kampi.
Is Limpopo good for caravanning near Kruger?
Very much so. Limpopo borders Kruger's western and northern sections. SANParks camps at Mopani, Shingwedzi, and Punda Maria all have caravan sites with power points. Peak season is June to September, book months ahead or you'll miss out.
Is malaria a concern in Limpopo?
The Kruger side (eastern Lowveld) and the far north are malaria zones, so talk to a travel doctor about prophylaxis before you go. The Waterberg and Soutpansberg are malaria-free, which makes them a good option for families with young kids.
How far is Kruger from Gauteng via Limpopo?
Phalaborwa Gate is about 450km from Joburg (5 hours). Polokwane is 3 hours up the N1. The R71 from Polokwane through Tzaneen to Phalaborwa is a beautiful drive and popular with caravanners, you drop off the escarpment into the Lowveld.
What caravan rental options are available in Limpopo?
