It was an amazing stay at Madikwe. The game drives in the morning and evening were amazing, we had a very skilled ranger who knew a lot and saw a lot of animals. The rooms were spacious and clean and at the waterhole there were always animals to watch. The staff was so friendly and helpful, food was also delicious. I can warmy recommend going there, I will surely return one day.

Look no further, this is the lodge for your safari experience. Getting to the place from Johannesburg is very easy by car, they are in touch with you in case of any event. The lodge is just wonderful. This is the only safari I have been on but I think this is a very unique place. The place is very beautiful, service is top knotch, you feel at home but also you know you are having a premium stay. What is most unique about the lodge is the waterhole in front as many animals come during the day to drink water and you can witness this súper up close through an underground hide. It’s amazing and completely safe. The other unique aspect of this lodge is your game drive ranger. Damien is just the best. He goes the extra mile so that you see the most exciting sightings, we had so much fun.

Everything was perfect. I would recommend Rhulani to everyone and would go back for our next stay in Madikwe without hesitation. The double family bungalows are huge with very comfortable beds. The staff are so helpful and welcoming and informative. Our guide-ranger Willem was the best ! We saw more in one morning than we could ever have expected to see and learned so much. An unforgettable experience for the whole family.

We were recommended Rockfig by friends who had stayed there previously and had just raved about it. We had an absolutely fanastic stay at Rockfig over the Easter holidays. Hanru was our guide for the safari trips and he was extremely knowledgeable and taught the boys so much about tracking skills, and various facts about the different animals we spotted. The whole team back at the lodge were great, and the food was outstanding. Can't recommend the lodge enough.

    Amazing game lodge, with an exceptional location and a very friendly staff. The game drives are exceptional. The presence of the water pond, right in front of the lodge is a big plus, since animals gather there in large numbers. Rooms are very confortable with a terrace facing the pond.

    We’d been lucky enough to visit various lodges in Madikwe before, but were really impressed by every aspect of Tau Lodge. From its fabulous location - with all rooms and the dining deck overlooking a genuinely busy water hole - to exceptional staff and fine food, I couldn’t recommend this too highly. We will return!

    The lodges are really nice, strategically located in front of a waterhole that attracts various species of animals. The staff was nice and helpful and the food was delicious. All the game drives have been incredibile, we've seen a lot of animals and different landscapes. A special thank you to our ranger James who is very passionate and knowledgeable about the reserve's wildlife and made every single drive an unforgettable experience. I higly recommend.
