Idube Game Lodge

Idube Game Lodge Game Viewing and Activities

Guests can expect to see not only lions, leopards, buffalo, rhinos and elephants, but the many other creatures that make taking an African safari so exciting. Impala, kudu, waterbuck and nyala, some of our many antelope species, are seen frequently. Expert rangers are passionate about the area and the wildlife and will share their knowledge with guests. Cheetah and wild dog are more difficult to see, but add to the thrill of the adventure. At night, guests might see hippos feeding out of the water, white tailed mongooses, bush-babies, civets or the fleet footed jackals, not to mention lions on the hunt. These are just some of the fabulous wildlife Idube can offer. For the many birders, there are more than 300 species of birds, a wealth of bird spotting moments. There is an early morning game drive and a late afternoon/evening game drive over an area of approximately 24 700 acres (10 000 hectares). Drives are normally 3 to 4 hours long, with a stop along the way for tea, coffee or sundowners. Idube is particularly well known for the frequent and excellent sightings of leopards - a photographer's dream come true. Guided bush walks are also offered. There are also photographic shows and talks given by the Rangers on particular topics, including the customs and history of the Shangaan people.
