Malaria-Free Reserve

Madikwe is one of South Africa's premier malaria-free Big 5 reserves — perfect for families with young children or travellers who prefer not to take prophylaxis. No antimalarials needed.

Big 5 & Wild Dogs

Madikwe's 75,000 hectares are home to lion, leopard, rhino, elephant, and buffalo — plus cheetah and the endangered African wild dog. Being a private reserve, vehicles go off-road for up-close encounters.

Fine Dining Under the Stars

An in-house chef prepares gourmet meals served in the cosy dining room or outdoors at the boma beneath an ancient fig tree — overlooking an active waterhole. All dietary requirements catered for.
