Inyati Game Lodge offers the ultimate safari experience combining diverse wildlife with authentic African hospitality.

At Inyati, you can look forward to fantastic close-up experiences with Africa’s wildlife on every game drive. Game drives traverse in an area of 10 000 hectares (24 700 acres) and strict vehicle limits at sighting ensure the exclusivity of your game viewing experience.

Inyati’s sitting and dining areas overlook the perennial Sand River. Breakfast is served on a large wooden viewing deck – an awesome game viewing experience in itself!

Enjoy fine cuisine and wines while sitting near a warm crackling fire. Inyati’s traditional boma is used on nights, (weather permitting) and is a truly memorable way to experience a safari evening under the African night sky.

A must for all nature enthusiasts is the bush walk. This gives you the ultimate, close to the wild experience and a chance to focus on the smaller bush inhabitants including birds, insects, and butterflies. Bush walks take place either before or just after breakfast, depending on the time of the year and the prevailing weather conditions.
