Luxury Easter Madikwe South African Safari, Rovos Rail Journey and Cape Town!

Your sanctuary at the waterhole - Last Word Madikwe

Is the newest addition to "The Last Word Collection" and promises incredible, once-in-a-lifetime sightings right from the lodge and lovingly tended garden as herds of animals gather all day long at the ancient waterhole just meters away. The area’s original photographic underground hide also shares a unique view of this spectacle.

In the spirit of oasis and sanctuary, Last Word Madikwe is a completely unique safari experience. Twice daily games drives to track the Big Five are a guest favourite, but the true difference is to be found right at the lodge itself. The house pours on to green and tranquil gardens which flow to the ancient waterhole just meters from the lawn’s end. It is a place most of the animals visit daily and one can see large interactive herds of elephant, lions, leopard, buffalo, dogs, white and black rhino, and many more just by relaxing in a garden seat enjoying a drink or snack. Madikwe’s original underground hide steals right up to the waterhole where aspiring photographers can catch the shot of a lifetime. Birdlife is abundant and although you will see many different species while out on game drive, many love to visit the inviting garden area and will often join you for breakfast. And it’s malaria free.

Be it in the relaxation of our spacious, individually decorated suites or lounges or in the tranquil escape found when wandering off to one of our many peaceful garden settings. From High Tea with the girls to a romantic fairy-lit dinner with a loved one. Remember to capture the moment with Lady Ivory on your wonderful journey.
