Idube Game Reserve
Overview of Idube Game Reserve
South Africa, Sabi Sands Game Reserve, Kruger Private Reserves
Explore the wildlife and botany of Africa's most coveted nature reserve, Kruger National Park, from the splendid eco-park, Idube Game Reserve. A safari adventure awaits as you traverse the bush with daily early morning and sunset game drives. Common bush sightings, including the Big 5, are giraffes, impalas, and zebras. Hippos and crocodiles can be spotted near flowing rivers and dams. If you're lucky, you may bear witness to an exceedingly rare sighting of a leopard.
Idube Game Reserve offers a blend of tastefully designed luxury suites amidst sublime wildlife. Boasting exceptional food and glorious South African house wines, the reserve imbues a love of the African bush in every minute detail. Awaken early in the morning to discover a family of elephants sipping from the freshwater pool, or you can kick back in relaxing lounges to the cadence of African birds.
These lodgings are ideal for first-time or experienced safari-goers who are looking to immerse themselves in breathtaking nature under the guidance of rangers with a deep passion for the environment. Conservation efforts led by the Marais family, owners of Idube Game Reserve, have ensured the protection of the natural flora and fauna of the area for all to enjoy.
