Madikwe River Lodge
The luxurious Madikwe River Lodge offers guests the chance to enjoy the sights and sounds of Africa, whilst relaxing on a shady wooden deck in riverine bush. Sixteen split level suites surround the main lodge, with the outdoor dining boma located on a central island, accessed by a wooden bridge over the river. Your safari experience takes you to the untamed wilderness of the Kalahari Thornveld, where dining under African stars and early morning breakfasts under Acacia trees are the norm. Home to 66 large mammal species and 350 bird species, Madikwe River Lodge offers the opportunity to view Black Rhino, Wild Dog and even Bush Babies.
Situated in the heart of Madikwe Game Reserve on the border of Botswana, the Madikwe River Lodge invites you to share the wildness and splendour of Mother Africa in exquisite comfort. Surrounded by 75 000 hectares of African sandveld, this luxurious lodge is ideally positioned on the Groot Marico river, in a malaria-free area.
Madikwe River Lodge is a child-friendly establishment, and offers six family rooms, with twin beds and an additional sleeper couch. Cots are available on request.
Game viewing is Madikwe's main activity, and the reserve is the fourth largest game reserve in South Africa and boasts the second largest Elephant population. Game Drives and Bush Walks are conducted daily by our excellent rangers, and although children under the age of 8 years are not permitted on the standard game drives, specialised Children's Drives are offered.
