 Jock Safari Lodge 

Celebrating Africa's wildlife and culture

Set on 6,000 hectares, Jock Safari Lodge was the first private concession in Kruger National Park and is the ideal base to immerse yourself in nature.

Jock Safari Lodge is named after the loyal dog of Sir Percy Fitzpatrick, made famous in his book Jock of the Bushveld. There's plenty of memorabilia from this story around the lodge. Twice-daily game drives in 4x4 Land Cruisers are led by experienced guides where you may see lion, leopard, elephant, buffalo, giraffe, zebra and hyena. After a hearty breakfast, experience a wilderness walk in search of the smaller species of flora and fauna.

Jock Safari Lodge is involved in many conservation and research projects for endangered species including rhino and wild dog.

Why we love Jock Safari Lodge

  • Wildlife including elephant, lion and leopard are often seen around the lodge

  • Families are welcome with nature-based activities for children

  • The suites have a private sala with a day bed, perfect for lazy afternoons between game drives

  • Dining under the stars to the rhythm of the nocturnal sounds of the bush is a magical experience

Situated in the southern part of the park, at the confluence of the Biyamati and Mitomeni rivers, Jock Safari Lodge is located in the south of Kruger National Park
It is a 1-hour game drive from Skukuza Airport which has direct flights from Cape Town and Johannesburg

You'll have plenty to eat and drink, in fact you'll be fed at least five times a day. When you return in the evening from the afternoon game drive, you can try the signature cocktail - combining mango juice, blue curacao and grenadine to make an African Sky. If weather permits, you may find yourself dining under the stars outside in a riverside setting.

The Pilgrim's Rest Retreat offers a range of beauty and body treatments surrounded by nature.

Morning and afternoon game drives explore the concession whilst a walking safari will bring you closer to the smaller creatures of the area. Bird watchers won't be disappointed with plenty of species including fish eagles, shrikes and hornbills to check off the list.

• Breakfast, lunch and dinner • Selected drinks including soft drinks, house wine, local beer and local spirits • 2 shared game drives per day • Game walks • Tourism Levy

For families, there is Fitzpatrick’s Lodge with three suites and a swimming pool set amongst rocks. Junior ranger training is given to the children on their game drives and they can join in with many educational activities. An evening night walk around the camp will fuel their imagination.

Children ages 5 years and younger are restricted to drives within the Jock concession.

Children aged 6 years and older are permitted on regular game drives.
