Lions are known to lie around in the shade during the day and barely move. So we have time to look straight into the face of this wonderful male lion.

Actually, we wanted to take a short break here at this beautiful, open spot and show you in today’s blog the stunning area with a few zebras. The bush keeps coming up with surprises.

How nice that on a safari with Rhulani Safari Lodge you can very often observe these prehistoric, peaceful pachyderms in their natural habitat. A white rhinoceros walks calmly through the savannah and grazes. Enjoy this wonderful moment in the African bush!

Rhulani Safari Lodge has recently started a new Community Project, by giving support to the “Andries Moseki Crèche” in the nearby village of Lekgophung. We are deeply convinced that this is the right project for us, to provide financial resources and active help over the next few years. But Rhulani‘s manager Carla Baasden tell us about how this collaboration came about.

Yes, there are also caracals in Madikwe Game Reserve! If you are lucky, you can discover this wonderful, shy cat with long ears on safari - like here!

At the beginning of 2018, Rhulani Safari Lodge is launching a new, attractive “Massage & Treatment Program”. Our three therapists Pauline, Valencia and Theodecia are pleased to beautify your safari stay with a fantastic well-being treatment in your private chalet.

Now that you see this video, all of our work on the “new bathrooms” in the guest’s Luxury Private Chalets is complete. Let’s take another look back at this extensive project with Rolf.

For many years, we have closely followed the development of the cheetahs in Madikwe. At Rhulani, we are primarily interested in helping the reserve get its own offspring for the first time, and we have offered sponsorships for new female cheetahs. Time for a short update.

It is well known that it is relatively difficult to observe this fast and shy animal on a safari. But here we present a spotted hyena that peacefully is enjoying the morning sun on the airstrip of Madikwe. A special sighting!

The month of April was quite busy for us as a result of Easter and holiday time. Often our lodge was fully booked. The animal observations remained at a consistently good level, which is proven by the daily statistics. We would like to specifically mention a non-everyday caracal sighting here.
