Safari escape

Aside from its generous size, exquisitely appointed Morukuru River House is akin to Morukuru Owner’s House in every wondrous way.  Experienced personal Chef, butler, housekeepers, safari guide and tracker, provide you with the ultimate malaria-free safari in Madikwe, South Africa.  A wooden walkway links secluded Owner’s House to River House, making for a private, spacious exclusive-use safari escape.

Each features a super-king size bed, romantic gas fireplace, cooling and heating air-conditioning, full bathroom with bush views, outdoor shower and tree-shaded private deck.
