Description:
At Zwahili
Game Lodge where the most spectacular sunsets are experienced
from the extended timber deck, you'll find unsurpassed peace and
tranquillity while in the distance nocturnal life comes alive.
Zwahili Game Lodge is situated approximately 2 hours North of
Johannesburg in a malaria free area.
As the Southern Cross and Orion's Belt, garland the dome of the
night sky, the distant smell of campfire from the open air boma
welcomes the guests back from their early evening game drive. The
faint call of tribal drums announces an array of culinary delights
to appease even the most discerning of palates. As a night-cap,
Zwahili offers evening viewing of the game almost on the front lawn.

stars.
