:: PONDORO GAME LODGE :: AFRICAN SAFARIS
African safaris made special
You sit around a boma fire, with lions roaring in the night,
hyenas cackling, and here and there a mother baboon
calling for her baby. You wake up with the African sun
streaming through your window, hearing hundreds of birds
chirping away in the early morning light - this
is what an African safaris holiday should be about.
At Pondoro Game Lodge they aim to make African safaris experiences for all their visitors as authentic as possible,
while also providing them with the necessary luxury.
Pondoro's 12-bed intimate lodge is well known for luxurious
accommodation and humble African hospitality.
The lodge is situated in the heart of Mpumalanga, on
the banks of the Olifant's River, within the exclusive
40 000 ha Balule Private Game Reserve - a true
beacon of what a game lodge and African safaris should
be.
The luxury accommodation of Pondoro will provide you with picture
perfect surroundings and breathtaking views and, whatever
your taste or pocket desires, you can choose between
standard and luxury suites.
What do you need for your African safaris?
Because of the unrelenting nature of the African sun,
it is always advisable to bring ample supplies of sun
hats, sunscreen, and sunglasses. Even during the winter
months the thermometer rarely dips below 20 degrees celcius during
the day. For the nights, bring a warm jacket and some
long pants.
If you are brave enough to experience Africa in summer, then
make certain that to bring insect repellent for when you go
on game drives.
Malaria is not really a problem in this area,
but possible risk will all depend upon the rainfall for the previous season.
If you are unsure then contact us, and we will inform you
about the risk.
Pregnant women and children are advised to consult
their healthcare practitioner to make sure that they
are protected.
African safaris are all about fun
In an environment like this you will be sure to meet
lots of new people, and you will be able to entertain
each other for hours telling your tales of the wildlife
that you have spotted so far.
