ABOUT

Little Africa Safari Lodge

Why This

Inspires Us

  • Little Africa is a family run lodge and most will be very impressed with this wildlife haven and its warming service!
  • Built on the banks of the Moditlo River – Little Africa has spacious rustic style tents that overlook the dry river beds and offers elegant decor that envelops you in its luxurious grip.
  • What we love about it is that it is one of the only lodges that is wheelchair accessible – as is the entire camp! (no steps & walk in showers)
  • Home away from home – but deep in the African Bush – this little gem goes above and beyond and really cares for the guests.

Lodge

Information

Little Africa Safari Lodge is the wildlife haven you have been looking for, situated in the heart of the lowveld, minutes from the Greater Kruger.  Surrounded by the iconic bushveld, the reserve offers the best African Safaris and unobstructed views of the magnificent Drakensberg Mountains.  This safari tent lodge is built in a rustic style on the banks of the Moditlo river and offers elegant decor that envelops you in its luxurious grip.

Little Africa Safari Lodge believes in and promotes ethical and responsible tourism. They are proud to show their guests Africa and its wildlife in the truest form – wild and free. 

Located in the Blue Canyon Private Game Reserve in the quaint town of Hoedspruit in the Limpopo Province of South Africa, the region is better known as the Greater Kruger due to it bordering the Kruger National Park.

Owners Hugo & Leandra Bekker’s vision was to create an oasis of tranquillity for guests to get back to nature and experience the opulence of the African bush.

Their open lounge offers comfortable seating to finish your favourite book or challenge the family to a board-game.

​Average temperatures during the year makes swimming a popular pastime in their infinity pool, or enjoy an exotic cocktail while sunbathing and soaking up the tranquillity that mother nature has to offer.

​During the evenings, sitting around a bushveld fire while listening to the sounds of the wild is an absolute must to revitalise your soul and reconnect with loved ones or meet other guests. The lodge is surrounded by wild and curious animals & birds – so no matter where you choose to relax, your vantage point is perfect to experience special encounters.

 

Suites

Little Africa Safari Lodge offers five en-suite luxury safari tents with private patios and riverbed views.  The lodge can accommodate a total of 14 guests per night.  Rooms can be configured to be either King Size or Single, depending on your requirements.

Each tent is fitted with an air conditioner to keep you cool during the warm summer days/nights and has complimentary bathroom amenities.  The tents are all wheelchair accessible and Tent Nr. 1 has a fully wheelchair friendly shower.
