    Previously known as Thornybush River Lodge,  Siviti Safari Lodge offers an intimate safari experience with five freestanding villa-style suites. The relaxed and unpretentious setting overlooking the Timbavati River is perfect for viewing herds of elephants, antelope, leopards, zebra, giraffe, and birdlife. Meals are prepared in an open-plan kitchen and served alfresco-style on the terrace overlooking a gorgeous infinity pool.

The honeymoon suite is slightly larger than the others, while the Royal Suite combines two suites with a central area to accommodate a large family or four adults.

    Thornybush is a private game reserve sharing unfenced borders with the Kruger National Park. Known for 14 000 hectares of open savannah woodland with patches of thicket, its superior Big 5 habitat boasts some of the best game viewing in South Africa.

With limited reserve lodges and guests, you can be assured of uncrowded safari sightings and great photographic opportunities. Thornybush also house other 4-star and 5-star safari Lodges on the reserve.

    Passionate guides and trackers at Siviti Safari Lodge strive to connect the dots on each game drive, explaining the ecosystem and how the smallest of insects correlate to the largest mammals. This makes for an intriguing understanding of the wild and makes every sighting even more spectacular.Get up-close to nature during a guided bushwalk and take a night-time safari in search of rare nocturnal animals and big cats with a spotlight.
