Set along the vibrant banks of the Great Fish River, Great Fish River Lodge is thoughtfully designed to highlight the vast surrounding wilderness. Expansive viewing decks allow guests to immerse themselves in nature, providing ideal spots to watch kudu wander to the river or take in an unforgettable African sunset.
The lodge welcomes children aged 12 and older.
Great Fish River Lodge exudes a calm, classic-contemporary style with a warm, natural color palette. Each of the nine spacious suites has floor-to-ceiling glass doors that reveal sweeping views of the wild landscape, along with ensuite bathrooms, outdoor showers, and both indoor baths and showers. Guests can unwind on the main lodge’s deck, read in the cozy library, or enjoy African-inspired cuisine in a candlelit dining room or traditional boma.
Your stay includes twice-daily game drives, guided nature walks with an armed ranger, and big game walking safaris where you can track rhinos, elephants, and buffalo on foot. A private guide and vehicle are available for an additional fee. When not out exploring, relax at your suite’s private plunge pool or unwind in the lodge’s welcoming living spaces.

Nicole Cronje is an absolute pleasure…
Nicole Cronje is an absolute pleasure to work with when planning our safari. Her extensive knowledge of the properties and destinations was invaluable. She patiently answered all of our questions, offered expert advice, and tailored our itinerary to our specific interests. Her friendly and helpful demeanor made the entire planning process stress-free and enjoyable. We couldn't have asked for a better travel consultant. Thank you, Nicole, for helping us create a truly unforgettable safari experience for next year!

Outstanding Experience! (Cape Town, Sabi Sands, Vic Falls)
After attempting to book this trip myself (a couple coming from the US), I gave up and reached out to Sara from Safari.com. I told Sara what I was thinking and by the next day she had created several wonderful itineraries! Based on her suggestions, we personalized the itineraries and within 7 days I was booked and all set!! Sara was available at all times (before, during, and after the trip). We are currently heading home and we are so happy with all the bookings Sara created for us! Everything went flawlessly. Her 3rd parties for tours and transfers were perfect (always early, professional, knowledgeable, and kind). The hotel acknowledged our anniversary thanks to Sara. We stayed at the Victoria & Alfred hotel in Cape Town, then off to Dulini Moya in Sabi Sands, and finally Victoria Falls Island Treehouse in Zimbabwe. I highly recommend all of them. Tell Sara what you envision your experience to be and your budget and she will make it happen!! Her knowledge was so helpful in assisting us to choose the perfect itinerary. It was comforting that she kept in touch while we were traveling throughout Africa. I feel so lucky to have had Sara arrange this trip and will certainly request her expertise again in the future!! You won’t have to worry about anything because she is on top of it all. Do not hesitate!! Book with Sara from Safari.com!

Incredibly helpful and experienced agent Anja
Anja was incredibly helpful and organized the most beautiful safari for us at a small lodge and also arranged our transport. She always responded within minutes no matter the day and took time for all my questions. I will recommend anyone who is looking for a premium experience to get in contact with Anja! Thanks for everything!
