Rhino Post Safari Lodge

Rhino Post Safari Lodge is set on the banks of the Mutlumuvi Riverbed, in a 12,000 hectare private wilderness concession in the Kruger National Park - an excellent game viewing area where regular encounters with the Big Five occur. The nature of a wilderness area is that there are no permanent structures, so Rhino Post Safari Lodge was built using just stone, canvas, wood and glass to create an authentic bush ambience and to blend into the natural surrounds.

Game drives make the most of the wide network of Kruger Park roads and the Mutlumuvi seasonal riverbed to explore the incredible biodiversity that makes Kruger a world icon, and continue after dark when the self-drive tourists have departed. No other off-road driving is allowed on game drives - both out of respect for nature and its long term sustainability and because in the Kruger Park it's just not necessary!  The most popular and regularly used routes in the Kruger National Park are tarred as it is a major attraction worldwide and it is necessary to keep the roads in good condition both to handle the amount of daytime traffic experienced in busy seasons, as well as to ensure that the Park can remain accessible even through the rainy season.  Animals tend to take advantage of the smooth, warm roads, which also see more game in the winter months because these roads are situated close to the rivers. 

Following a game drive, guests can relax in the revitalising swimming pool, take in the views from their shaded patio and watch the abundant wildlife amble down to the waterhole.

Sumptuous meals are served in the camp's dining area, which is set under magnificent Tamboti trees. The lounge, with its extensive wine cellar, cosy fireplace and bar, is the perfect spot for sundowners.

Each of the 8 comtemporary bush suites are built on raised stilts with large glass windows overlooking the riverbed. Each suite has a private viewing deck and the bathroom includes a deep freestanding bath as well as an outdoor shower.

In addition, guests can experience sleepouts from Rhino Post Safari Lodge (additional cost and subject to availability). Guests are transported by safari vehicle to the sleepout platforms, accompanied by a guide. Sundowners can be enjoyed on the platforms overlooking a waterhole, while your guide prepares dinner over an open fire.

Rates Include

Brunch, high tea and dinner; tea/coffee; 2 game drive activities per day; and the Conservation Levy are included. PLEASE NOTE: The Kruger National Park Private Concession gate vehicle entry fee is NOT included for self-drive visitors - this is currently R110 per person per stay - subject to change.

Children Policy

Children of any age are welcome. Rates available on request. Children under 6 cannot go on game drives unless there is a spare vehicle available or a private vehicle is booked by prior arrangement.
