At Bushwack Safaris we do not make false promises and second best is not good enough. We go the extra mile to ensure our clients needs and expectations are met, resulting in outstanding trophies and hunts of the
highest qualities.
FACILITIES
Your hunt and safaris with us starts on the arrival at Johannesburg International airport, where you are personally met by Bushwack Safaris staff. From here you will enjoy a safe and comfortable drive to the Lodge.
The lodge is situated in the beautiful Northwest Province, in the Malaria free Bushveld and takes approx. 1 ½ hours’ drive from Johannesburg International airport.
The area is blessed with moderate climate, summer rainfalls and mild winters. Catering for up to 20 guests at a time, it is perfect for group safaris, corporate getaways and conferences, ensuring total privacy and making it a total unforgettable experience.
One of the historic attractions at the Lodge is the cultural heritage site. Molokwane, an Iron Age Bakwena village is one of the two largest Stone Age heritage sites in Southern Africa. The Iron Age stone-walled settlements reaching over a 3km area from north to south and 1.5km from east to west have been well preserved. Some 20 000 members of the once mighty Bakwena Bamodimosana Bammatau tribe lived in this village in the 1600’s.
