We have never experienced so much care and attention. Heike knew our approximate travel plans and although we had checked out days before, she called to warn us about strikes. Thanks again. If it were possible, we would give you 10 stars! Sigrid Wierig

We were guests at Baluleni Safari Lodge from 29.01.-07.02.23. For us, after 4 days in Cape Town and our first time in South Africa, it was an intense and impressive time in Baluleni, which, back home, is still lingering. The lodge is run with great attention to detail. The grounds are very well maintained and clean (thanks to the people in charge Vasco and Jobert), the chalets overlooking the Olifantenriver (with air-conditioning and coffee machine and fridge) very tastefully furnished and conscientiously cleaned daily by Gertrud and Jane. From the chalet we could watch and listen to monkeys, waterbucks, many species of birds, bushbucks, squirrels, warthogs etc. The first few days we heard lions roaring very close several times a day and also hippos from time to time, which made us feel the closeness of the wilderness. Julia Gross

A quiet dream oasis that I can only recommend without reservation. The whole team prepares meals, the rooms and the lodge with great attention to detail, so that you feel well looked after. The game drives and a bush walk are very well organised by the guide, a lot is explained and rounded off with a snack. A week off from the hustle and bustle is also recommended. Sometimes animals can be observed directly at the lodge. We felt very comfortable and would like to come again. Thanks also to Andreas for answering our many questions. Best regards to the whole team! You are great! Ludwig Czibere

A wonderful place to get away from it all. The food and the team were wonderful. At the pool we were visited by an elephant and several giraffes that also walked through the lodge as everything is open and very animal-friendly. You can also do very nice things outside the lodge such as: Kruger National Park, the Hippo Jessica or go to an Animal Rescue Centre. We will definitely come again. Thank you for the great time with you. Best regards to the whole team Sabrina Heger

The lodge is beautifully situated in the middle of a nature reserve. As the lodge is not fenced in, we could observe the animals directly from our chalet. The chalet has a romantic African interior and is equipped with an indoor and outdoor shower. The cuisine was excellent. In the evenings, we ate with all the guests in the boma around an open fire. Anne-Marie

In addition to the fascinating activities in and around our safari lodge as well as the twice daily game drives, we offer a variety of exciting additional activities . Immerse yourself in the incomparable beauty of South Africa and experience unforgettable adventures during your stay with us.

Our promise

Our safari lodge mission includes passion for nature, attachment to our location, and love for this country of South Africa. Our focus is on the direct experience of the flora and fauna without leaving a lasting impact. We place particular emphasis on the following principles:

Open terrain

We do not use electric fences. It is important to us that all animals can move freely with us.

Preservation of flora & fauna

Offroading destroys smaller animals, nests, and plants, so we move along designated trails.

Gentle animal observation

In our reserve, you rarely have more than 2 vehicles around an animal sighting at the same time.

No geotracking

Modern technologies allow permanent location release of animals, especially for poachers.

Great place to work

Our company has a positive economic impact on many local families.

Environmentally friendly

We are constantly reducing our carbon footprint through many initiatives.

Any interference with the hunting behavior of predators has severe consequential damage to the animal and ecosystem.

Minimum distance

With us, no animals are confined or even touched. We treat animals with respect.
