Above the African Plains. Nestled against the side of a hill surrounded by the mountains of the Pilanesburg National Park; overlooking a waterhole and savannah plain, lies Tshukudu Bush Lodge.
Child Policy Unfortunately, no children under the age of 12 years are allowed at the Lodge. Children between the ages of 12 and 18 years, sharing with one or two adults, will be charged a third-person supplement rate on a Fully Inclusive basis.
One of Africa’s most romantic game lodges, Tshukudu Bush Lodge is nestled within the remains of an extinct volcano, where game traverse the plains below, and Big Five sightings are the norm rather than the exception. Each custom-designed chalet offers a romantic sunken bath, an open-plan lounge and bedroom, a fireplace, and a private balcony.
Tshukudu Bush Lodge offers six splendidly decorated and recently refurbished chalets to choose from.
Join highly trained and experienced field guides on two game drive adventures per day to explore the diversity of indigenous flora and fauna in the area. Halfway through each game drive, which is conducted in open, 6-seater vehicles, guests can enjoy morning coffee and muffins or a sundowner stop. Field guides will take you on an enlightening 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. Choose from full-body massages, manicures, and pedicures.
This flagship lodge in the Pilanesberg caters for intimate, romantic, personal celebrations, and private dinners, whether on your own deck or next to a romantic fire. Combined with up-close and personal encounters with wildlife, the experience will leave you breathless. There is no cell phone reception, TV, or email communication available. However, for those guests who require network connections, arrangements can be made. Tshukudu is the ultimate retreat for those seeking a tranquil getaway to soothe the mind.
At the heart of the lodge is an intimate and quiet plunge pool, equipped with umbrellas, pool towels, and a barman on standby at all times. Enjoy a refreshing dip after a morning game drive or a peaceful nap in the afternoon. Drinks are always on call, so make yourself at home in this serene sanctuary. (No children under 12 years.)
Breakfast: A continental buffet is served on the deck, and guests can order personal hot breakfast meals from the kitchen.
High Tea: A light lunch, served just before the afternoon game drive, consists of both sweet and savory options to satisfy guests until dinner.
Dinner: Tshukudu is renowned for its exceptional African cuisine. Meals can be enjoyed on the main deck, in the intimate dining room, or around the fire. Every evening features a unique dining experience, where the chef presents a five-course menu. This is complemented by stories shared by field guides about their adventures in the bush.
Accommodation, all meals, selected local beer, wine, and non-alcoholic beverages, as well as two game drives daily.

Keith Chideme is fantastic!
If you’re looking for someone to help you plan the trip of a lifetime, look no further than Keith Chideme. Keith has been nothing short of extraordinary in helping me create a month-long dream trip to South Africa for myself and 11 family members. His patience, kindness, and thoughtfulness throughout the entire process have been remarkable. Keith went above and beyond, engaging in countless conversations to make sure every detail of our six-destination itinerary was just right. He worked tirelessly to balance my budget with my desire for an unforgettable experience, finding deals and creative solutions that I would never have managed on my own. His dedication and expertise gave me complete confidence that this trip will be everything I’ve dreamed of and more. One of my favorite aspects of working with Keith was the personal touch he brought to every interaction. Whether through voice messages, phone calls, or texts, he was always patient, thorough, and thoughtful in explaining every aspect of the itinerary. I never once felt rushed or overlooked—he truly cared about making this trip perfect for us. I can’t imagine planning this trip without Keith. Knowing he has my back has been such a comfort, and I feel completely at ease knowing we are in such capable hands. My entire family is incredibly excited about this incredible adventure, and I know I’ll be contacting Keith for all my future travel plans. He is an absolute gem and a true professional. Thank you, Keith, for everything!

Anja at Safari.com was a great partner to work with!
Working with Anja at Safari.com was great. She was able to work some magic and got us a few nights at the safari lodge we really wanted, Ngoma. Unfortunately, our flight from the USA to South Africa was canceled and we were rebooked a day later but Anja was great about making sure our lodge and the transports knew about the change in plans and made sure we got to our trip as soon as we could. She was a great partner to have and communicated quickly whenever we reached out. I would highly recommend using her when planning a trip to Africa!
