Outside the gate
Safari company
A glamping camp run by the AfriCamps brand on Bonamanzi Game Reserve, a private reserve 6.4 km from Hluhluwe town. On 24 September 2026 Booking.com listed a tent unit at R3,090 a night for two. AfriCamps runs camps of this kind elsewhere under the same name; the reserve itself sells its own rooms separately. Bonamanzi is not part of Hluhluwe-iMfolozi: the park's Memorial Gate is 17 km from Hluhluwe town, and you pay the daily conservation fee there. Choose it if you want to sleep under canvas in comfort and drive into HiP by day.

What the park charges on top
The rate above buys you a bed. Hluhluwe-iMfolozi Park charges its own entry fee for every day you are inside. Here is what that adds up to.
- Park entryR320 per international adult per day at USD 1 = R16.35 (23 Sep 2026), 2025/26 tariff valid to 31 Oct 2026.
- $20per person, per day
Three nights means three days inside, so two adults pay $120 in park fees before anyone pays for a bed.
Ezemvelo's 2025/26 tariff lists no vehicle fee for Hluhluwe-iMfolozi.
Guests at Ezemvelo's own camps and at the private lodge inside the park pay the conservation fee for every day as well; it is not included in the accommodation rates.
