Madikwe Safari Lodge is a family-owned lodge set within the malaria-free Madikwe Game Reserve, one of South Africa’s premier Big 5 safari destinations. As a non-migratory, year-round safari destination, the reserve offers consistently rewarding game viewing and memorable safari experiences throughout all seasons.
The lodge collection includes three distinct safari camps and one private villa under a single family-owned brand, ensuring consistent standards of service, guiding, and hospitality across the property. Each camp has its own character while maintaining the same commitment to personalised guest experiences.
Madikwe Safari Lodge is also purpose-designed for families, offering thoughtfully curated safari experiences that include age-appropriate game drives, dedicated children’s spaces, and family-friendly lodge layouts. These elements allow families to enjoy the safari experience together while maintaining privacy and tranquillity for other guests.
For those seeking a more private safari, the lodge offers exclusive-use options across the collection. Kopano Camp, Dithaba Camp, and Elela Villa can each be booked on an exclusive basis, allowing guests to enjoy private safari vehicles, tailored dining experiences, and fully personalised itineraries. For larger gatherings, all camps can be combined to accommodate groups of up to 46 adult guests sharing, with space for up to eight children in the Family Suites.
