Madikwe River Lodge *****Positioned on the banks of the Groot Marico River bordering Botswana, this luxurious lodge offers every guest the chance to enjoy an untamed Big Five safari adventure. Home to a variety of large mammal species and hundreds of bird species, the lodge offers plenty of opportunity to see black rhinos, wild dogs and even bush babies in their natural habitat. Sixteen split-level suites surround the main lodge, with the outdoor dining boma conveniently located on a central island accessed by a wooden bridge over the river.
