  • An incredible start to the morning at Ximuwu 🍀 Just as our guests were setting off for their early game drive, a full pack of wild dogs appeared right in front of the lodge, calmly investigating the airstrip. Curious and alert, they took their time, giving everyone a truly memorable sighting before the drive had even begun. Wild dogs are among the most fascinating predators to watch in the wild, and seeing an entire pack right on the lodge’s doorstep is something very special. Not a bad way to start the day! #ximuwu #africanwilddog #painteddogs #greaterkruger #luxurysafari
  • Look who we found at Ximuwu! 🦁🐢 A playful lion cub discovered a tortoise and decided it was the perfect new toy… and don’t worry, the tortoise got away unscathed! No crowds. No vehicles in line. Just you, your guide, your tracker… and the freedom to watch this little bush adventure unfold at your own pace. This is what safari magic looks like up close. 📷 @janet.templeton
  • Today we’re celebrating International Wheelchair Day — a moment to honour mobility, inclusion, and the freedom that accessible spaces give so many around the world. At Ximuwu Safari Lodge we designed and built our space with guests with limited mobility in mind, but that doesn’t take away from the beauty, luxury, and wild spirit of your stay. Our accessible paths, game viewers, suites, and vehicles are all integrated in a way that feels natural and seamless, so everyone can enjoy the magic of the bush without barriers. Whether you’re young, old, travelling with family members who need extra comfort, part of a multigeneration group where the oldest wants easy access, or just want to enjoy the luxury and private experience we offer — Ximuwu brings luxury and accessibility together beautifully. 💛 Here’s to designing experiences where everyone can feel welcome, comfortable, and free to explore. Happy International Wheelchair Day! 🌿✨

  • Our recent guests have shared their thoughts, and we couldn’t be happier. We’re grateful for every kind word and for being part of your safari journey: “What a stunning lodge with the most amazing team running it. We have just spent 8 days at this lodge. We have done numerous safaris in South Africa and elsewhere in Africa. This lodge is fabulous. Every part was wonderful from the game drives, the staff, the spa, the food and the actual lodge itself. The view from the deck and pool area is the best game viewing I have ever experienced from a lodge without leaving for a drive. We had cheetah, leopard (brief glimpse before it ran away from the hyena) and hyena with the stolen kill on our first morning. On another night we had wild dogs. On every single night we had hyenas, impalas, zebra and jackals. Aside from the great game on the drives and the decking, we enjoyed the spa facilities, the people and the best food - without doubt we have ever experienced in a safari lodge. The chefs are unbelievably talented and offer foods I’ve never had on safari from every continent. The staff are second to none-we struggled to say goodbye. We had fun with them and they are all so professional. Love the fact they promote young talent who are trying to make a career in hospitality giving young people in South Africa a chance of a future. The experience of the staff overseeing them is so vast you are in very good hands. Our guide, Rudi, was THE most knowledgeable I’ve ever had in my 20 years on safaring and | learnt new facts but also felt we were in massively safe hands. He is like an elephant whisperer! Every single member of the team are wonderful from the hosts, Rudi and Melinda to the unsung heroes who take care of you behind the scenes. We met the owners several times during our stay here too - really welcoming, genuinely nice couple. Would I go back again - 100%. Amazing place. Book it!! “ ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
  • Happy Monday from the bush 😁 After their morning game drive, our guests were relaxing by the pool when a beautiful elephant bull wandered in for a drink at the waterhole. Calm, majestic, and completely unbothered, he made for a perfect moment to soak in the magic of the bush. There’s no better way to ease into the week than with a surprise like this at Ximuwu 🐘
