Location and Access
Umzolozolo Private Safari Lodge is on a hilltop in the malaria-free Nambiti Big 5 Private Game Reserve. The lodge is 250 km from Durban and a 4-hour drive from Johannesburg. The location in the south of the reserve has most of the wildlife.

“The attentive care and deep knowledge of the guides, combined with the stunning views from a hilltop position, made for an exceptional safari experience. Meals were consistently superb, and the quiet elegance of the rooms, each blending into the bush, truly stood out.”
