Safari devoid of malaria in Lalibela Game Reserve

Kichaka Luxury Game Lodge, perched on a small hill with only the peaks of its thatched roofs discernible amid the trees, overlooks a substantial waterhole in the Lalibela Game Reserve in South Africa’s temperate Eastern Cape.  This resort seamlessly combines private lodging with a unique and personalized safari experience.

The Eastern Cape is rapidly gaining popularity for malaria-free big-game safaris.  The temperate temperature and gently rolling hills provide superior game-viewing due to less tree cover, absence of malaria, and enhanced vantage positions.  The game drives and nature hikes provided by Kichaka are among the finest available.  The reserve is abundant in rhinoceros, cheetah, lion, elephant, buffalo, hyena, hippopotamus, giraffe, zebra, wildebeest, numerous antelope species, and a variety of intriguing nocturnal animals.  When not engaged in safari activities, indulge in the on-site spa amenities.

Ten exclusive luxury chalets are situated on the hillside, including hotel-like opulence and amenities: full en-suite bathrooms, private decks, under-floor heating, air conditioning, heated plunge pools, lounges, mini-bars, internet access, and 24-hour room service.  Savor comprehensive local food, crafted by a skilled chef and accompanied by a selection of acclaimed South African wines.
