Set in pristine African wilderness at the foot of an ancient volcanic crater, Tambuti Game Lodge offers guests an intimate and luxurious safari experience.The contemporary elegance at Tambuti Lodge is complemented by the excellent service and hospitality offered by the Tambuti Team.
We were planning on booking at a different lodge and when we learned they were full, we had to find an alternative close by. And man oh man, how lucky did we strike it!!!! Beginning with the gorgeous intimate atmosphere with only a few rooms and a handful of staff, it felt exclusive and personal. The staff are amazing at what they do and lovely people to spend time with. Chanè is a top guide - knowledgeable and super cool. Malcolm made sure everything was always running smoothly and we had everything we needed. But oh my word... the FOOD. I have never experience this quality of dining at a game lodge. Every single meal was carefully and skilfully crafted and just an absolute feast. Chef Riaan, you are a freaking legend!!!! Everyone else was always friendly and helpful. We had amazing sightings. The rooms are stunning. Etc etc. Thank you all for an incredible experience <3

Motswiri Private Safari Lodge, situated in the western side of the 75 000 hectare, Big Five, malaria-free Madikwe Game Reserve in the North West Province, forms an integral part of The Madikwe Collection's exclusive portfolio of lodges. As its name suggests, Motswiri Private Safari Lodge is an exclusive lodge offering guests a personal bush experience, which is impossible to replicate in larger concerns. The lodge offer some of the best views in Madikwe as well as the tranquil feel given by the mature trees (mostly Leadwoods) under which the lodge's main building and five luxury bush villas nestle. Motswiri has luxurious accommodation, with each bush villa offering stunning views from private decks and multiple-slider bedrooms and bathrooms. Add double-sided fire places, air-conditioning/ ceiling fans, stunning bathrooms and an outdoor shower and you have a bush experience second to none.

Fine cuisine is served in the dining room, under the Leadwood or around a roaring fire in the boma. Staff offer personal service in a relaxed but professional manner and the twice daily game drives are conducted by our rangers whose superb bush knowledge is imparted in the manner best suited to the bush knowledge of the guests on the specially designed landcruiser game viewing vehicle. Motswiri offers the option of individual bookings or exclusive use of the lodge for groups. The lodge is ideal for corporate, family / friend groups of up to ten people who do not wish to share the facilities with other guests.

By far the best safari lodge I’ve ever been to! If you’re looking for a place where the staff is going the extra mile then head to Rhulani! The friendly, professional staff, makes you feel at home from the first minute on you set foot there. Always great food, even freshly baked muffins at 6am before the safari starts! The lodges with heated privat pools are warmly decorated with lots of great taste! 3 days with Alistair on safari were packed with professional insight about African animal life… we learned so much and we were blown away of what we saw EVERY day!!! He‘s fun approach to animals and humans alike are gonna be memories we‘ll never forget. We laught so much, thanks Alistair… We‘ll def. be back soon… Warmly, Fam. Adcock

Tucked into a wooded hillside you'll find five individual, luxury suites which affords the privacy of home, while the main lodge, run on Italian hospitality, ensures you are very well taken care of. Lush is set on Black Rhino Game Reserve – a private concession within the malaria-free Pilanesberg National Park.
After about a 3 hour drive from JNB, we arrived at the lodge to the sight of the staff (Suzanna, Gloria & Andrew) gathered in the driveway waving to us with cold drinks in hand as well as warm washcloths. Our luggage was whisked away and we were led on a quick tour of the grounds and then our suite. This place is seriously amazing! So well thought out and designed. I can't even begin to describe the level of service. You'd have thought we were royalty. It's very intimate - currently only 5 suites with 2 people max to a suite. We stayed for 5 nights and it was all couples (some were honeymooners). Seems like most stay for 3-4 nights but some only 1 or 2 nights. Our suite was huge, well-designed, very comfortable and spotless. They serviced the room 3 times a day! Our days went like this: 5am wakeup knock on the door, 5:15am quick breakfast, 5:30-10am game drive, 1:30-2:30pm lunch, 3:30pm afternoon tea, 4-7pm afternoon game drive, 7:30pm dinner. The bed was the biggest king-size bed I've ever seen and every amenity from the sheets & duvet to towels to rugs to bathrobes were the most luxurious. The food was also amazing....and endless. We brought a few snacks from home and never touched a one. Every night, dinner was set up in a different location. One night out on our deck next to our private plunge pool! Another night was in their amazing wine cellar. Every night was special and unique. However it was our guide BORIS that really made our trip spectacular! He is so knowledgeable and passionate and willing to share his enthusiasm. He also could spot a herd of zebras literally a mile away while driving 40kms down a bumpy 4x4 muddy path! We had incredible up-close encounters with giraffe, zebra, kudu, impala, rhinos, buffalo, warthogs, tons of birds, a very pregnant lioness (a testament of Boris's expert tracking ability), and elephants (including spending time with the oldest elephant in the park and one almost too close encounter!) and many more. Thankfully the hippos we saw were not up-close encounters. Because the lodge is small, there are only 6 guests max in a game drive vehicle but most days we only had 4 and twice it was only the 2 of us. We spent more than 40 hours over the course of 9 drives/5 days and LOVED every minute of it. We saw 4 of the big 5. Missed seeing the 5th (leopard) but apparently one was spotted the morning we were leaving. A little sad to have missed that but wouldn't change one minute of our special time with Boris or at Lush for anything! If you are thinking about visiting, do it! You won't regret it. These folks go out of their way to make sure you are happy and well taken care of. All the staff were smiling and genuinely delighted to be assisting. We are well traveled and this was the best overall experience we've encountered so far. And it will be hard to top. Superb job Lush! Thanks for an incredible experience. We have never gone back to the same place twice but would definitely come back home to Lush. Until we meet again - Jennifer & Jeff

What can I say, that hasn't already been said in the previous reviews. From minute 1 when we arrived and met Tshepo, Portia and JR we knew this was going to be a special visit. We had planned this trip over two years ago, the expectation levels were getting higher and higher the closer we got to arriving. If I could have written a script for our visit, it would not have been as good as the real thing was. Our room was fabulous and the initial look at that view from the balcony brought tears to our eyes. All the people at the Lodge, Johnny, Nhlania and Thebe the superb chefs who prepared some incredible food for us, Thabiso, Tammy, Simon and Ernest who looked after us exceptionally well, nothing was too much trouble and they always had a smile on their faces. Tumi the general manager is a credit to the Legacy Hotel Group. His relationships with the guests and staff was excellent, it was a pleasure to meet him and his team. And then there is Jaan- Rick. I can honestly say I do not think I have met a person with more passion and knowledge about their work than JR. He has an incredible source of knowledge about the park, the ecology and the animals, but doesn't force his knowledge onto you, it just happens in conversation. He also has a wicked sense of humour which suited us, we had some good laughs whilst out and about. The game drives were unbelievable, we had some superb sightings and think we covered every hectare of the park. I find myself looking at the photo's we took and just reliving the time we spent with JR in the park. The roads were interesting but that just added to the experience, as did the 132 steps up to the lodge. Keep up the great work team, it was an honour to meet you all.

This is a upmarket lodge which consists 10 rooms and accommodate 20 guests. The lodge is situated next to the Leon Taljaard Game Park. This is a perfect stopover to Namibia and Botswana and also a perfect stopover for persons travelling from Gauteng to the Cape. Whilst having a sundowner on our deck you can enjoy the most beautiful sunsets and admire the numerous wild animals.
Very nice place to stay. Rooms are well appointed and the service was good. Highly recommended. We stayed in the ground floor room that exits onto the deck with lovely views. We had a very nice breakfast at the guest house. Well worth a visit if you stay over in Vryburg. Safe and secure parking.
