Drifters Game Lodge (South Africa)

Location:

Situated in the 30 000-hectare privately-owned Balule Nature Reserve, alongside the Kruger National Park, the Drifter's Game Lodge is isolated and intensely close to the magic of Africa.

Accommodations:

Accommodation is in six well-spaced luxury, insect-proof suites under thatch. Each suite has an inner tented sleeping chamber, offering the occupants the full spectrum of the sounds of the African night without compromising safety.

All suites are comfortably appointed with electricity, full bathroom with shower and a private patio overlooking the seasonal Mohlabetsi riverbed.

The central lodge building offers broad shady verandas and a comfortable lounge overlooking our rock pool. This feature pool is for those who wish to enjoy a refreshing swim or to tan under the African sun.

Activities:

Your expert ranger will teach you about the habits of the lion and the rhinoceros, and how to identify the ferocious little "Antlion" and the giant Rhinoceros Beetle.

For the more adventurous we offer a game walk under the guidance of an armed ranger or you may choose one of our open-vehicle drives. Animals encountered during your stay are in a totally wild and natural environment, and good game sightings are guaranteed.

We are especially proud of our abundant birdlife, which is attracted by the riverine forest. Brunch is enjoyed on the veranda after returning from your early-morning activity and dinner is served under the stars in our traditional African boma.

Eastgate Airport offers a convenient fly-in or one can self-drive from Johannesburg in five hours. The lodge is situated 17km north of Hoedspruit, gateway to the Kruger National Park.
