Ngala Safari Lodge

Ngala Safari Lodge is situated in the Timbavati Game Reserve and was the first private safari reserve to be incorporated in the world-famous Kruger National Park.

With exclusive traversing rights over 14,700 hectares of Kruger's game-rich wilderness, Ngala (meaning 'lion' in Shangaan) offers an extraordinary African wildlife safari experience, in an area renowned for its exceptional Big 5 game viewing.

Guests at Ngala Game Lodge can enjoy exhilarating twice-daily game drives in 4x4 safari vehicles and interpretive bush walks.

The main thatched dining, bar and sitting areas are open to the African bushveld, and the large swimming pool and game viewing sun deck looks out over a busy waterhole where elephants are frequently sighted.

Delicious Pan-African cuisine is served in the candle-and-lantern lit courtyard or in the dramatic boma, and exceptional bush banqueting is enjoyed in spectacular settings in the African wilderness.

This gracious, colonial-style safari lodge is renowned for its superb accommodation.

The 20 thatched chalets each have en-suite bathrooms and air-conditioning, and a private veranda.
