  • The Sark Pride has been around all week, and what a week it’s been!

Our recent guests were over the moon seeing the full pride so close to the vehicle, but also realised how incredibly special it is to be able to enjoy a sighting like this for as long as you want at Ximuwu.
No other game viewers waiting in line for their turn. At Ximuwu, you can spend as much time as you like.

These guests didn’t want to go anywhere else during their afternoon game drive and spent over two hours just watching the behaviour of the pride.

Who else thinks this is pretty amazing?
See you soon at Ximuwu 🦁
  • When the itch hits… there’s no such thing as waiting!

This buffalo found the perfect branch and went all in—scratch, twist, repeat. Equal parts spa treatment and serious business.

It might look like pure entertainment, but there’s a purpose behind it: removing ticks, loose hair, and maybe even leaving a scent mark while at it.
At Ximuwu, even a simple scratch comes with full commitment 😄
  • Happy Friday from Ximuwu!
  • When the lodge goes quiet at night, the waterhole doesn’t!

We set up a camera in the hide and left it running, just to see who would come by for a drink after dark. And as always, the waterhole did what it does best — steady movement, quiet arrivals, and a constant sense that there is always something just beyond the light.
It’s simple, natural, and always different from one night to the next.

Still… it does make you wonder
who would swap their beautiful suite for a night in the hide? 😇

  • A slow drive, a bit of scanning… and then suddenly all eyes in one direction.

A leopard stretched out in a tree, completely relaxed, while we watch from the vehicle below. It’s one of those sightings that instantly changes the energy on the vehicle.

For many guests, this is right at the top of the wishlist. And when it happens, it never disappoints.
One of many beautiful sightings we were fortunate to enjoy at Ximuwu last week 🐆
  • Wildebeest cross Ximuwu airstrip in the soft light of the setting sun. The plains are bathed in a warm glow, and there’s a peaceful calm that settles over the bush as day slowly turns to night ✨
