Set on a hilltop amongst huge boulders and age-old Tamboti trees, the lodge is situated in the malaria-free Madikwe Game Reserve, traversing over 75,000 hectares of true untamed Africa, where the plains teem with wildlife and the endangered wild dog roam freely.
Ten luxurious, spacious glass-fronted suites are located at the Main Lodge. Room facilities include a living room with a large slate-clad chimney that leads into the peaceful bedroom. From the bedroom, it’s possible to lie and gaze in wonder as herds of wandering animals make their way to the nearby watering hole.
Little Madikwe Hills boasts a two-bedroom private villa with its own game-drive vehicle and game ranger, as well as a personal butler and chef to take care of your every need. A diverse wine selection, gourmet kitchen, and entertainment center complete the experience. Additionally, two standard suites can also be reserved to form a completely private camp, accommodating up to eight guests. A notable luxury is being able to set your own meal and game-drive times, making this the ideal exclusive family escape.
The lodge facilities include a reception area, lounge area, bar, dining room, traditional boma, wine cellar, library with free Wi-Fi access, curio shop, swimming pool, and a viewing deck overlooking the waterhole.
Along with a warm and friendly atmosphere, Madikwe Hills offers you the highest standards of service and fine cuisine, accompanied by a superb selection of wines.
During your stay at Madikwe Hills, you will explore the wonders of the bush in state-of-the-art open game vehicles. These vehicles feature bucket seats and fold-down armrests to ensure your optimum safety and comfort. Knowledgeable and professional rangers conduct early morning and late afternoon or evening game drives, in search of Africa’s big game and its smaller wildlife.
On morning game drives, should you feel energetic, you may choose to experience an up-close and personal glimpse of the African bush on foot with a gentle bushwalk back to the lodge. This experience provides exceptional close encounters with the smaller inhabitants of this wilderness.
Madikwe Game Reserve is home not only to the Big Five of Africa (lion, buffalo, elephant, rhino, and leopard) but also to a wealth of over 66 mammal species, including the rare African wild dog, as well as cheetahs, elands, kudus, giraffes, and over 300 resident and migratory bird species.
Madikwe Hills Private Game Lodge is ideal for solo explorers, couples, and families looking for the ultimate luxury African safari experience.

Keith Chideme is fantastic!
If you’re looking for someone to help you plan the trip of a lifetime, look no further than Keith Chideme. Keith has been nothing short of extraordinary in helping me create a month-long dream trip to South Africa for myself and 11 family members. His patience, kindness, and thoughtfulness throughout the entire process have been remarkable. Keith went above and beyond, engaging in countless conversations to make sure every detail of our six-destination itinerary was just right. He worked tirelessly to balance my budget with my desire for an unforgettable experience, finding deals and creative solutions that I would never have managed on my own. His dedication and expertise gave me complete confidence that this trip will be everything I’ve dreamed of and more. One of my favorite aspects of working with Keith was the personal touch he brought to every interaction. Whether through voice messages, phone calls, or texts, he was always patient, thorough, and thoughtful in explaining every aspect of the itinerary. I never once felt rushed or overlooked—he truly cared about making this trip perfect for us. I can’t imagine planning this trip without Keith. Knowing he has my back has been such a comfort, and I feel completely at ease knowing we are in such capable hands. My entire family is incredibly excited about this incredible adventure, and I know I’ll be contacting Keith for all my future travel plans. He is an absolute gem and a true professional. Thank you, Keith, for everything!

Leigh-Ann provided me a flight from DTW to HDS for a flight duration of 21 hours. The best I could do was 34 hours. Just made payment today 12/21/2024. I would say you are lucky to have such a proficient young lady on your staff. James Wade
