Game Viewing Experience

With no boundary fences between Balule Private Nature Reserve (50 000ha) and the Kruger National Park a great diversity of wildlife is found here. Game drives on our safaris traverse an area of 30 000 acres and strict vehicle limits at sightings ensure the exclusivity of your game viewing experience.

Pondoro Game Lodge offers the following game viewing activities

Early Morning and Evening Game Drives

Nature Walks

Picnic lunch at the hide (book in advance)

Birdwatching in camp and during game drives

Off-road driving on most areas enables the best possible view of any exceptional sighting and rangers are constantly in 2-way radio communication with each other to keep track of animal movements.

For the more adventurous, a nature walk with an armed guide would add the thrill of encountering animals on foot.

Guests wishing to book a private vehicle can do so for a fee of R9950 per day subject to availability. Booking beforehand is strongly advised.

Our Rangers & Trackers

Our experienced guides will not only use all their vast knowledge and bush craft to try and show you the famous Big Five (lion, leopard, elephant, rhino and buffalo) and other plains game such as zebra, wildebeest, giraffe, but they will do their best to paint memories of an Africa that will never fade away.
