On safari in Africa

Pack your bags and prepare for a truly magnificent safari in Africa. Thaba Phuti Lodge situated in the ancient Magalies Mountain range offers guests true colonial luxury combined with the earthy nuances of this beautiful and untamed continent we call Africa.

Meryl Streep and Robert Redford went on safari in Africa with style. The type of colonial furniture, fine food and beautiful white linen seen in the movie “Out of Africa” can also be enjoyed merely 80 to 90 minutes drive from Johannesburg and Pretoria in the heart of the North West Province.

Once you have been on safari in Africa at the five star Thaba Phuti Lodge you will want to return every weekend to drink in the splendor of the wild life and the majestic Magalies mountain range. The lodge is located on the edge of a cliff overlooking the Hex river gorge where zebras, giraffe, wildebeest and countless indigenous animals graze. Listen to the sounds of zebra or feast your eyes on the many rare bird species to be found in this beautiful part of the South African bushveld right from the privacy of your room deck.

Every guest of Thaba Phuti gets royal treatment. Guests experience luxury from the spacious and stylish rooms with their majestic king size beds, fully stocked mini bars, en-suite bathrooms and safes for valuables, right through to the world class business facilities and elegant restaurant.

Relax in style

Nothing is more relaxing than lying next to the crystal clear pool in the midst of a luscious garden or sipping a glass of red wine in front of the fireplace in the lounge.

Feast on traditional South African cuisine

For those looking for a unique way of dining we offer a bush picnic that will remind you of scenes from movies about the Serengeti. Mouthwatering cuisine is served in the middle of the bush in style.

Safari in Africa in the traditional way

There is no need to pack your hunting knife or the compass you received from your granddad as our guides, who lead you on a true African bush walk, know the area like the palms of their hands. It is as close to the wild animals any adventurer can get on foot.

Take an afternoon game drive

Trade in your walking shoes for an open vehicle game drive in the adjacent Duikerbult game reserve with its wide diversity of fauna and flora or explore the bushveld on horseback while you converse with your friends about the many safari in Africa activities offered by Thaba Phuti.

Diversity of animal and plant life

Make your friends jealous with the pictures you took while you were on safari in Africa at the Thaba Phuti private game farm. Some of the animals to be found here include the warthog, duiker, kudu, rhino, wildebeest, blackbacked jackal, vervet monkey, yellow mongoose, lesser bushbaby, leopard, serval, caracal, bushbuck, eland, impala, steenbok, blesbok, and the hedgehog. The private game farm, where Thaba Phuti is situated, is stocked with many more animal species just waiting for you to discover them.

The safari in Africa experience also includes exciting treetop canopy tours for an added adrenalin rush while you enjoy the view from above. If you prefer even more height with the wind blowing through your hair, you can book a hot air balloon ride through the Thaba Phuti office. These are just a few of the many game explorations you can take while you lodge in style at Thaba Phuti.
