Our lodges are not fenced and game drives are geared toward seeing everything that nature has to offer. Our ethos is to engage with nature and wildlife in respectful ways – we do not drive off-road, thereby minimising damage to plants, birds, small animals and insects, as well as not contributing to erosion. Most importantly we endeavour to show our guests great animal sightings without chasing or stressing the creatures that we so admire.
We use environmentally-friendly cleaning products at all our lodges and work closely with communities in skills development, upliftment and business development. We are conservationists at heart, and are actively involved in community projects and helping to facilitate ways for us to give back. We believe that this incredible environment needs to be supported and appreciated by as many people as possible in order to keep supporting forthcoming generations of humanity.
Most importantly, we have made it our mission to provide top experiences at reasonable rates, whilst competing with some of Africa’s best known lodge brands. Our mission is driven by our desire to make these experiences accessible to everyone. We want our guests to have the chance to experience the things that bring Africa to life for us, without going broke. The fact that we have superb chefs who delight in tantalising tastebuds and that we provide excellent quality linen on comfy beds is just the icing on the cake.
Always Kruger, always home
Now, many years later, Rhino Post Safari Lodge and Plains Camp @ Rhino Walking Safaris run at an extremely high occupancy, beating most (and often all) of the private concessions in the Kruger National Park.
A river dream
On the back of our Kruger Park success, the directors decided to expand and identified a niche market in Zimbabwe. Chundu Island opened in November 2017 on the banks of the Zambezi River and is a complementary destination to our Kruger Park lodges. Chundu Island meets the needs of the enthusiastic eco-traveller by providing authentic, ethical and responsible experiences as an add-on destination to make the trip out to Vic Falls worthwhile (Chundu is only 21km from Vic Falls). Guests can look forward to enjoying not only the incredible sights but to experiencing island-style living, water activities as well as game drives and walks. Once again, we have kept it real, wonderful and affordable.
Masuwe Lodge, our preferred partner in Victoria Falls offers the best of both bush and adventure and we have partnered with them to ensure that our guests are able to enjoy an all-round safari experience.
