Amakhosi Safari Lodge is situated in the Amakhosi Private Game Reserve, on the banks of the Mkuze River, right in the heart of Zululand.
A safari is a journey of discovery in which you are one with your surroundings. Being part of life in the bush is the essence of a safari and being able to do it is a privilege one should never take for granted. Amakhosi Safari Lodge is located in a Savannah biome, with the perennial Mkuze River running through the reserve. The reserve has a wealth of wildlife. A variety of antelope species; zebra and giraffe are often seen. As this is a Big Five reserve, it is also home to elephant, rhinoceros, lion, leopard, buffalo. Cheetah sightings are frequent whilst not forgetting hippo and crocodile which provide nature lovers with a true untamed view of nature. Besides the larger and smaller mammals, their world is shared by a host of other creatures which makes up this ecosystem, each one as important as the other in the part they play.
There are also more than 400 species of birds in the area, depending on the seasons you will see many of Africa's iconic bird species. Colourful bee-eaters and kingfishers; majestic eagles and vultures; bird photographers are likely to get several "lifers" during the time spent at Amakhosi.
Conversation around the fire at night is of close encounters with lionesses and playful cubs, sand-bathing elephants and streaking cheetah. But equally engrossing are the adventurous guide’s encounters with smaller creatures, from delicate bark spiders to glossy dung beetles; and anecdotes about the trees and medicinal plants of the reserve.
You can unwind, revitalize and rejuvenate your body, mind and soul in the Amakhosi River Spa. Here guests can enjoy holistic body, skin and beauty rituals, rejuvenating massages and soothing treatments by Africology. These are designed to relax the body and bring harmony to the spirit while enhancing health and vitality. This is Big 5 territory and what you don’t view from your deck, expert guides invariably will deliver on dawn and dusk game drives. (ITT)
