  • The wild dog pups are thriving at Ximuwu – healthy, playful, and full of character!

Over the past few weeks, every guest has had the rare privilege of watching them grow, from those oversized paws and ears to the boundless energy that keeps the whole pack on the move.

It’s a true gift to spend time with one of Africa’s most endangered species, and even more so to watch the next generation finding their place in the wild.

  • Just after sunrise this morning, we found him — a magnificent male lion, mane glowing in the golden light. 

As the bush slowly woke up, his roar rolled across the reserve, a powerful reminder of who truly rules here.

Sound up for this one — it’s the kind of roar that gives you goosebumps.
A magical start to the day and the perfect way to wish you all a Happy Caturday from Ximuwu. 🦁✨

  • Last week, this incredible male cheetah decided to strike a perfect pose for our guests as the sun came up over Ximuwu. 

His visits are always a highlight for us, bringing such beauty and elegance to the bush. For our guests, his appearance was even more meaningful – he was the last missing piece in their quest to see the Magnificent Seven during their 7-night stay. 

What an unforgettable way to round off a truly magical safari! Until next time, beautiful boy – we’ll be waiting for your next visit 🐆

  • Some very special news from Ximuwu… we’ve discovered a wild dog den not far from the lodge! 🐾

A few days ago, we were lucky enough to capture some footage of the tiny pups on the road with the adults. The quality isn’t the best, but this moment was far too magical not to share! 

Since then, the little ones have been tucked safely away in the den — and we’ll be keeping a close watch from a respectful distance.

We can’t wait to share more updates as they grow and begin to explore. Stay tuned ✨!!

  • There’s nothing quite like returning from an evening game drive at Ximuwu. 
As you arrive, the flames at the entrance are already glowing, a warm welcome after the thrill of the bush. 

The night then unfolds around the fire in our boma – glasses clinking, stories flowing, and the African sky stretching endlessly above. Safari evenings don’t get better than this.

What would be your drink of choice by the fire?

  • Imagine this as the setting for your last breakfast  on your honeymoon in South Africa … A private deck, the morning light, and then suddenly a huge herd of buffalo casually strolling across our private airstrip. As if nature itself wanted to spoil our guests with one more unforgettable memory before checking out.
At Ximuwu, every moment writes its own story — from private dinners under the stars to helicopter flights over the reserve, and sometimes even a surprise farewell from the wild itself. It’s the magic of safari, where the extraordinary becomes part of your everyday ✨
