Ngoma Bush Lodge offers a peaceful safari stay on a private 600-hectare farm near Hoedspruit. Guests enjoy comfortable accommodation, dinner, breakfast, and morning and afternoon plains-game drives on the property. Big 5 safaris are available offsite at an additional cost.
Private 600-Hectare Farm
Ngoma Bush Lodge is ideal for guests looking for a quiet, authentic bush escape near Kruger National Park without the crowds of larger safari lodges. The lodge is set on a private farm in the Hoedspruit area, offering open bushveld, wildlife sightings, relaxed hospitality, and a slower pace of travel.
This is a plains-game lodge experience, not a Big 5 reserve. Guests can enjoy giraffe, zebra, kudu, sable, wildebeest, impala, eland, and other plains-game species on the farm. For guests who want a Big 5 experience, offsite safaris can be arranged at an additional cost.
