Included halfway during the game drives, which are conducted in open, 6 seated vehicles, are morning coffee, muffins and sun downer stops. Field guides will take you on an ethological journey through this unique South African paradise.
Private spa treatments can be arranged in the privacy and comfort of your chalet or in the tranquil setting of the pool area. Full body massages, manicures and pedicures
This flagship lodge in the Pilanesberg caters for intimate, romantic, personal celebrations, private dinners on your own deck or next to a romantic fire that combined with the experience of up close and personal encounters of wildlife, will leave you breathless. No cell phone reception, TV or email communications. For those guests preferring the ultimate tranquil getaway, Tshukudu is the ultimate retreat to soothe your mind, however if you should require any network connections, it can be arranged.
Nestled in the centre of the lodge is an intimate and quiet plunge pool with umbrellas, pool towels and a barman on standby at all times. Take a refreshing dip after a morning game drive or a peaceful nap in the afternoon. Drinks are on call so make yourself at home in the lazy sanctuary of the pool area. (No children under 12 years)
Breakfast A continental buffet is served on the deck and your personal hot breakfast meal can be ordered through the kitchen. High Tea A light lunch is served just before the afternoon game drive and consists of something sweet and something savoury to see our guests through until dinner. Dinner Tshukudu is renowned for its exceptional African cuisine. Meals are enjoyed on the main deck, in the intimate dining room or around the fire. Every night you step into a different dining experience where the chef will present his 5 course menu, accompanied by our field guides who share their experiences in the bush with our guests.

I highly recommend Shann Shaw
Shann Shaw has been great to work with and she has tried her best to try to meet our budget expectations. She is very kind, responsive and detailed in her explanations and really, really helpful. When I told her I decided to book through expedia or booking, she still explained how everything worked and how these websites sometimes don't have all the details you need, yet, she work hard in getting us our flights and the hotel that we really wanted for this experience. I couldn't be happier with her service and dedication and highly recommend her services!
