Situated on a 7500 hectare private game reserve in the Eastern Cape, the Kichaka Luxury Game Lodge is surrounded by an impressive 5 biomes, which include valley bushveld, fynbos, riverine forest, woodlands and savanna grassland.
Experienced game rangers make the most of every opportunity to try to ensure incomparable animal encounters during the twice-daily game drives. One which leaves in the early morning and the other in the late afternoon, allowing time for some stargazing.
The reserve is home to the Big 5 as well as large herds of game, including gemsbok, springbok, eland, wildebeest and zebra among others with hippos regularly visiting the local waterhole. As a special treat, you can arrange a Cosmic Safari with your ranger and enjoy the wonders of space through a high-powered telescope. Kichaka has very little light pollution, presenting you with breathtaking views of the Milky Way and the Southern Cross.
The Kichaka Luxury Game Lodge offers a dining experience fit for royalty. You will have the opportunity to indulge in contemporary South African cuisine prepared by a dedicated executive chef while facing the hard choice of which wines to pick from the superb wine list. The spectacular meals are served in either the main dining area, in one of the designated outdoor areas or in the privacy of your own suite. The Kichaka wine list is compiled by the upmarket safari accommodation in the Eastern Cape’s wine cellar managers and offers an extensive variety of local and imported wines as well as authentic French champagne. 24-hour room service is available.
The Kichaka Luxury Game Lodge is the ideal corporate getaway and is superb for conferences, product launches, team building weekends and even your end-of-year functions.
