The Experience

LOCATION
Molori Safari is situated deep within the Madikwe Game Reserve in South Africa’s North West Province, bordering Botswana. The secluded lodge offers absolute privacy, while taking in breathtaking views of the Dwarsberg Mountains and the expansive Madikwe valley. At 75 000 hectares, Madikwe Game Reserve is South Africa’s fifth largest Big Five game reserve, but offers so much more than the big five. Madikwe is home to the Super Seven, which includes all Big Five species as well as cheetah and wild dog. There are an estimated 400 wild dogs still surviving in South Africa and a large proportion of these are thriving in the Madikwe habitat. The Reserve is also home to some 350 recorded bird species.

Guests can also participate in dog tracking experiences and learn more about this extraordinary and highly endangered species. Read more…
