Perfect Lodge
We had the most perfect time. The lodge is stunning, the rooms are away from each other so there is intimacy. The location is right on the river which allowed us to see all kinds of animals like elephants bathing in the river. The food was so good thanks to the chef, it was delicious. The game drives were perfect!

Accommodation Description
Bundox River Lodge is a luxury tented safari lodge in Balule Nature Reserve within the Greater Kruger in Mpumalanga province, South Africa. Offering guests a sought-after sense of peace and privacy in nature, Bundox River Lodge boasts just four glamping safari-style tents that provide an authentic and intimate experience. Each glamping tent has been designed to blend wilderness adventure with modern comforts and style, featuring a private deck overlooking the beautiful Olifants River.
As the sun sets, the communal area transforms into a cosy gathering space with campfires under the stars, sundowners and delicious meals. Bundox River Lodge has a huge commitment to eco-tourism, allowing guests to immerse themselves in the untouched beauty of the environment while enjoying the comforts of a well-appointed property. Guided nature walks and river safaris offer thrilling encounters with the diverse wildlife, making it a haven for nature enthusiasts.
Setting Description
Bundox River Lodge is located in a 5000-hectare private concession within the Balule Private Nature Reserve. There are no fences between Balule and Kruger National Park which means the wildlife roams freely between the two areas. The big draw to staying on a private concession, however, is that you don’t experience the crowds of tourists commonly seen in the main reserve – but are still able to enjoy the majesty that the Kruger National Park is known for.
Considered one of the largest and oldest safari areas in South Africa, the Kruger National Park is one of the best places to view wildlife, experience guided walks and explore some of the wildest areas in the country. Exploring the Greater Kruger Park through safaris opens doors to an extraordinary array of game lodges, immersive safaris, engaging activities, and guided tours, all converging to craft an extraordinarily unforgettable wildlife experience.

Imagine 5000ha of exclusive wilderness with eight kilometres of the beautiful Olifants River yours to explore at leisure, and at its heart an intimate safari camp with just five beautiful safari tents set next to the gently flowing waters. We’ve taken the dreams we’ve all had of the ultimate safari and made them a reality at Bundox River Lodge, combining the best of our brand into a new benchmark of authentic safari excellence.
It’s said that when it comes to building an outstanding safari destination, location is everything. If that’s truly the case then Bundox River Lodge has everything in abundance and more. Perched on a gentle bend in the perennial Olifants River in the far north of the Balule Game Reserve, this brand-new tented camp has breathtaking upstream and downstream views from its raised position on the southern riverbank.
