Welcome to Pondoro Safari Lodge

An African safari allows you to connect to nature in all its forms. It is a unique opportunity to immerse yourself in the sights and sounds of one of the world’s most beautiful and ecologically diverse landscapes. The Kruger National Park Game Reserve is world renowned as the home of the Big Five, but it contains hundreds of species of fauna and flora. Situated on the banks of the Olifants River, Pondoro Game Lodge is the perfect place to sit back, relax and become one with nature.

Safaris are often described as life changing and at Pondoro Safari Game Lodge we pride ourselves on providing an experience that is both magical and unique to all our guests. Let us take care of your every need, as you become part of the age old African story unfolding before your very eyes. Expert rangers and trackers, led by Pondoro owner Robbie Prehn, conduct morning and evening game drives. Their intimate knowledge of the area adds a new layer of understanding to the experience, inevitably leading to a new appreciation of the wondrous plants and animals which surround.

One of the cornerstones of the Pondoro experience is our mouthwatering cuisine. We believe that the best memories engage all of your senses. Top off an exhilarating game drive by stopping to take in the breathtaking beauty of the South African sunset, while enjoying a light meal and sundowner. We love to prepare candlelit dinners along the banks of the river, which allow you to come and enjoy a delicious meal set to the sounds of the African night. Guests can reflect on the day’s events, meet fellow guests and share in their experiences.
