Some Events... Welgevonden Game Reserve
Welgevonden Game Reserve is one of the absolute highlights of our Safari. It's one of South Africa's largest private reserves and encompasses more than 40,000 Hectares of pristine nature with 50 different mammal species, including the BIG 5; lion, elephant, buffalo, rhino and leopard.

Pilanesberg National Park
Pilanesberg National Park is a beautiful area in the North West province of South Africa. Situated in a volcanic landscape, its impressive mountain formations and open plains, are home to a range of antelopes and a large population of white rhinos. It is also home to the big 5, as well as over 300 species of bird.

Kaingo Game Reserve
The Kaingo "critical bio diversity 1 classification" reserve with 41,000 acre acres of stunning bushveld savannah is dedicated to environmental preservation, ensuring an unforgettable experience. The magnificent Mokolo River within the reserve adds to the breathtaking scenery and supports a rich ecosystem offering incredible wildlife viewing opportunities. Enjoy the wonder of Kaingo Big-5 Private Waterberg Reserve, where the harmony between wildlife encounters and preserving Africa's natural treasures is celebrated.

Tribal Evening
Tribal evening is the perfect opportunity for you to experience the indigenous African peoples way of life, gaining historical and cultural insights into the lives of the local people. Here you will indulge in traditional cuisine, experience customs and traditions of the people and be amazed by the singing and dancing of these talented locals.

Night Safari
The African bush at night is an amazing experience! On our night safari we have the opportunity to see animals that are nocturnal in nature and the African night sky in all its wonder. En route we will stop at "Flinstone Cave" where our chefs will treat us to a feast under African skies next to the comfort of a roaring wood fire.

Why Choose This Safari?
Our Club Safari 2021

You will see the most variety on this Safari, and it’s not unusual to see most if not all of the Big 5! This is mainly because our Safari includes three outstanding private reserves and the Pilanesberg National Park! Our Safari tour is spectacular, all about the Safari experience, with eight plus game drives at multiple reserves, while staying at our awesome lodge in Northern South Africa!

This is the perfect trip if any of the following apply to you:

Best time for Safaris, early spring & fall, as it is "dry season" with pleasant weather, where the animals congregate around the waterholes and are not hidden in the shade.

All wildlife relatively local, so no switching hotels or distant travel required to enjoy this beautiful part of the world.

No special precautions required around our accommodation, lodge and within the pedestrian boundaries of our private reserve. Go for walks or hikes anytime!

Avoids all the normal Safari pitfalls, all-inclusive with excellent flight options and no up-sell or “mandatory” options. Five-star “high culinary level” meals, great Safaris and an awesome agenda, all included! Some on our previous trips skipped a few events/safaris, as again, every option and event is included, so if you do everything it's relatively busy, but our members want everything! If you choose to do everything, there's still plenty of time to enjoy our magnificent lodge on our private reserve, hang by the pools, at the bar, go for nature walks and more.
