Tshukudu Bush Lodge

Staff is extremely friendly. Location is beautiful. Safaris and food are excellent. Great experience.

Absolutely excellent.

We had an exceptional stay in this beautiful lodge set within the reserve. The views were stunning and staff could not do enough for us. The safari drives were exceptional and our driver, JR went out of his way to share his knowledge and passion for this beautiful place. We were lucky to see the big five within 24 hours and two stunning leopard sightings.

The game viewing was exceptional, comfortable and relaxed. The climb to the rooms was a bit tiring for a 70 year old but the food and ambience was worth the effort. I

高齢者夫婦二人で2泊利用しました。丘の上に限られた戸数で建てられたロッジで滞在する形式で、各戸のプライバシーは完全に守られて快適です。 ベランダに小型の露天風呂(ロッジでは温水ベビープールと称してましたが)があり、解放感は抜群です。夜は"露天風呂"に浸かり乍ら、満点の星を楽しみつつ、ワインを傾けるのは最高です。(素っ裸はお勧めしませんが、時間帯を選べば水着着用は必須ではない、かな？) Game driveも当ロッジ専属のガイドが同行するので、説明も判り易く(英語とアフリカーンスオンリーですが)、満足の行くものでした。ヨハネスブルグから片道2時間半ほどでアクセスでき、朝晩のGame drive でBig 5 (Lion / Leopard / Buffalo / Elephant / Rhino)も見られるので、手頃です。また、冬の早朝のGame Driveでは、湯たんぽを頼めば用意して呉れるので、車に常備してある毛布と併用すれば凍える思いをしないで済みます。 食事は宿泊者が一堂に集まってテーブルを囲む形式で、(英会話必須ですが)極めてフレンドリーです。但し、食堂は丘の頂きにあるので、下の部屋に泊まると朝晩階段を100段ほど昇り降りする必要があります。良い運動です。 尚、車でアクセスするのが通常ですが、ヨハネスブルグのサントン地区に在るLegacy Hotel & Resortsがバス便を出しているようです。自家用車で行く場合は、Pilanesberg国立公園の入口の１つ”Bakubung Gate”近くのBakubung LodgeのParkingに駐車(無料)して、其処からロッジが回す車に乗換える事になります。その迎えの車に乗る前に当ロッジ専用のデスクでチェックインをします。チェックインは通常13:30開始ですので、時間が余ったらBakubung Lodge敷地内のレストランで時間を潰すか、付近を散歩でもして下さい。 ロッジに着いてから部屋に入るまでに、階段を(最大100段超。下の部屋なら30段強)上るので、御用心。荷物はポーターが運んでくれます。(チップをお忘れなく！)

Incredible Trip with my amazing Wife - We both thoroughly enjoyed every second, Delicious intimate 5 course meal, Rooms are rustic with beautiful views - Definitely Visiting Again Jan-Rick is a passionate and very informative Guide 👍👌

O atendimento foi super cordial. Estabelecimento exatamente como descrito. Boas instalações

Een prachtige plek om te zijn. Respect voor de natuur. Zeer vriendelijk personeel. De huisjes/kamers zijn heel netjes met een prachtig uitzicht! Wij hebben veel verschillende dieren gezien waarvan 4 van the big five (inclusief luipaard). Cole was onze ranger en hij was super! Heeft ons veel laten zien en heel veel verteld. Prachtige zonsondergang gezien boven op een berg waar hij ons naartoe bracht. Tshukudu Bush Lodge is geweldig! Echt een aanrader.

From Arrival to End we were treated like Royalty - stunning room - amazing view and the Guide Jann-Rick was simply amazing with his constant efforts to make sure our stay was as memorable as possible and his knowledge of the bush is truly AMAZING Thanks again we WILL return SOON

We’ve spent 3 nights at the Tshukudu Game Lodge and we enjoyed every second! The Lodge is situated within the park (in the middle of nowhere) with a stunning view! The time at the lodge was more than great because of the whole Tshukudu team! They all have been so nice and friendly and did everything that we felt comfortable! Our guide Cole was fantastic! He took us on the safari drives twice a day and we have seen so many animals and learned a lot about them and the nature! Thank you Cole for this unforgettable time! It was a pleasure meeting you. Since Cole had to leave the lodge earlier we got another great guide for the last two rides - he was also really great! In general, you have two rides during the day. One early in the morning. Once back in the lodge you’ll get a wonderful breakfast on the main terrace. The other ride is in the afternoon with a nice snack before leaving. You will also stop for a break during this ride where you can enjoy a drink. After coming back you can enjoy the 5-course dinner together with the other guests! That was delicious! Another point which was important for us, you are not sitting in a big truck with 30 people - it is a game vehicle with a maximum of 6 guests in it (even if there are 9 seats). This enables you to spend the time with the animals as you wish and not as the driver with 30 guests decides! Ist was an amazing and extraordinary experience! So, if you are thinking going to the lodge: DO IT! It’s worth the price!
