    About Amakhosi Safari Lodge

    • Close Panel 

    Amakhosi Safari Lodge is set in the AmaZulu private game reserve and offers luxurious accommodation, a range of guest facilities and wonderful game viewing. 

    There are 6 River Suites and 2 Honeymoon Suites, all with ceiling-high windows and views out over the Mkuze River. The suites are spacious and comprise a bedroom, ensuite bathroom and lounge and are equipped with tea and coffee making facilities and mini bar. Honeymoon or Executive Suites have Jacuzzi Plunge Pools.

    The main lodge houses the dining room serving African cuisine with European influences. Guests can relax on the shaded patios or outdoor lounge with its views of the river. Other facilities include a swimming pool, library, bar and game viewing deck. A range of massage and aromatherapy treatments are available to guests.

    Activities centre around the wildlife and environment, a blend of savannah, wetlands and mountains. Early morning and late afternoon game drives offer great viewing opportunities, in an area where the Big 5 can be seen. There are also visits to the wetlands to view the resident crocodiles. Guests can also explore on foot. All game viewing is led by qualified game rangers. The lodge specialises in frogging expeditions (seasonal), taking guests into the bush at night to discover these fascinating amphibians. It is also possible to visit local Zulu villages and learn more about the cutlure and customs. Alternatively guests can choose to relax at the lodge and watch game from the viewing deck.

    Pricing guidelines for South Africa

    • Open Panel 

    We hope the following will give you a rough idea of costs. These are quoted per person based on twin share for two people, without international flights but including internal flights. We’ve used good standard accommodation throughout. There are nearly always ways to spend more money than we’ve suggested (!), but these prices show a good and realistic range for each type of trip.

    International flights will add from about £600 to £800 depending on the season and route (unless the airlines have special offers). South Africa combines well with Botswana, Mauritius and Mozambique.

    For a specific personal quote based on any tailor made itinerary you have in mind, please contact us and we’ll be happy to help you.
