Animal and bird sightings along the river banks are a guaranteed occurrence from the spacious viewing porches.

Location
Malaria-free, the area is known as Frontier Country embracing a variety of cultures, from existing tribes and others establishing themselves as early as 1812. Perfectly balanced, African Safari Lodge is a nature lover's paradise with dense ravine thickets, scattered thorn trees and open areas making this an idyllic outdoor experience.
The African Safari Lodge philosophy is driven by making quality and lasting friendships, bringing guests closer to nature and ensuring that they experience enduring memories. The lodge can be booked in its entirety or per person depending on the need.
There is a 4,5km gravel road leading to the lodge It could be a slight challenge for sports cars with low profile tyres. If guests cross the speedbumps at an angle and stick to the speed-limit it should alleviate most of the concerns. Road maintenance is done on a regular basis.

Verified review
The accommodation was very neat and well maintained with an excellent breakfast. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The only thing maybe missing was a map of the area for a game drive.
