Highlights
What We Love
- Elephants regularly drink from the private plunge pools
- Guided nature walks though classic bush thicket and grasslands
- All of the Big 5 are frequently seen along with wild dogs
When To Visit
Peak Season: April to September
Safari peak season relies on thinner vegetation and fewer water sources so that wildlife doesn’t stray too far away.
Green Season: October to March
A time for birds, babies, butterflies, blossoms and occasional thunder showers to cool the summer heat down.
Overview
The Greater Kruger area in South Africa is the best place in the world to see the Big 5 in the world. Careful conservation means good populations of leopard, lion, buffalo, elephant and rhino thrive in gorgeous settings. Idube Game Reserve can traverse 10 000 hectares of the Sabi Sand Private Game Reserve, which adjoins the renowned Kruger National Park.
Idube Game Lodge is a small, cosy property in the heart of Big 5 action. Down-to-earth, unfussy and homely while still being stylish, it offers family fun in a series of suites and chalets. In addition to game drives, your guide can take you walking to uncover smaller creatures, towering trees and all the fascinating details you miss on a vehicle!
