Set against a backdrop of lush, green, mountainous vegetation, Mabula Game Lodge is situated in one of South Africa’s premier malaria-free private game reserves. Located just two hours north of Johannesburg, this 12,000-hectare reserve is home to a rich diversity of wildlife, including the Big Five, as well as an abundance of bird species.
Exuding elegance and understated luxury, Mabula Game Lodge offers an extraordinary encounter with South Africa’s bushveld. Located just a two-hour drive from Johannesburg in the malaria-free Waterberg region of Limpopo Province, the lodge is set amidst diverse landscapes, including grassland plains and rocky outcrops, which create an ideal habitat for the free-roaming Big Five.
Distinctly African in style, Mabula Game Lodge features comfortable suites with luxurious finishes. The soft, neutral bushveld colors are complemented by large windows that seamlessly bring the African bushveld indoors. The lodge offers world-class cuisine in a variety of dining venues, blending rich, tantalizing menus with the tranquility of the bushveld.
Guests can partake in numerous activities, including open vehicle safaris, bush walks, and horse trails, making Mabula a memorable destination. During peak periods, such as South African school vacations, the lodge provides a Cubz Club children's program, educating kids about the African bush and its wildlife. Game viewing is exceptional against a backdrop of rivers, streams, and expansive vistas. The reserve is home to a variety of mammal species, including the Big Five: elephants, lions, white rhinos, hippos, leopards, and buffalo. Additionally, the reserve hosts reptiles like the African python and Nile crocodile, as well as over 300 bird species.

Excellent and pro-active service
Contacted safari.com and they (Denise) quickly responded to discuss plans. Took away requirements and within a short time came back with a proposed and costed itinerary. Based on this I made a few changes that were quickly incorporated and a final proposal that met all of my initial and revised requirements was produced and agreed - all flights and reservations were made and confirmed within 24 hours of the confirmation and deposit. They also provided insurance cover as part of the package. Considering the complexity of the trip (multiple countries, locations, flights etc) this was an easy process and as a seasoned traveller I was very impressed and happy with the service
