Impodimo Game Lodge

The experience

Game Drives

Rise in the morning to an African dawn and enjoy an early morning game drive with your dedicated professional ranger and tracker. Relax as your knowledgeable ranger guides you through the bush on a custom made open 4 x4, for the most authentic safari experience. In the afternoon, when the heat of the African sun has diminished and the shadows are longer, head out on a sundowner safari to watch the sun set on this bushveld paradise and go in search of the more nocturnal creatures that now rule the bush.

Bushwalks

For the more adventurous, set out on a bush walk with your fully qualified and armed trails guide and learn the art of tracking African game and get to experience the bush in a way that is impossible in a vehicle. Study the signs of the wild as your guide interprets the secrets for you, always ensuring your safety.

Trackers

Impodimo has the advantage out on safari. We have talented trackers on each game viewer that assists the ranger in finding the animals. Together this team of ranger and tracker are able to more efficiently track down that special sighting you are looking for, in an immersive experience. Trackers, have the ability to see and read the signs of the bush that others might have missed. Having two qualified guides ensures that comfort and safety are always the highest priority.

Children on Safari

Children of all ages are welcome at Impodimo and we love to go out of our way to ensure that kids and parents both have an unforgettable safari experience. Our kiddies program is tailored to the different ages and can be fun and educational for all. Each child receives a personalized welcome pack with goodies and activities to do in between safaris. Children over the age of 6 years are welcome on the game drives, however, families with younger children need not fear that their kids will miss out, as we offer a ‘kiddies bumble’ which is shorter and aimed at keeping the little one’s attention. We offer babysitting services for when parents are on safari or if they simply need the break.

Dining

Dining is a central part of any safari experience, and we are passionate about amazing food. Enjoy a sumptuous brunch at the pool lapa on return from your morning game drive and a traditional high tea in the afternoon overlooking the African Bush. Relax as our talented team of chefs turn out the finest Pan-African cuisine using the finest locally sourced ingredients, Our menus change daily, according to what produce is available and are customized to the different dietary preferences of our guests. Dinners can be enjoyed with your hosts in the open-air boma or the dining room with a fine wine. Share your adventures while you enjoy a nightcap around the fire or If you prefer, we can arrange private dining for a more intimate experience. Whatever you choose, there will always be surprise and delight even for the most discerning palate.

Massage Treatments

A day in the bush is not complete without an in-room massage treatment out on your private deck or on our Sala viewing deck. Choose from a menu of different treatments including hot stone massage offered by our skilled and qualified therapists. Luxury has never felt this good.

Elephant Hide

What happens when you can’t get enough of the game viewing on game drive? You spend your time in our amazing Elephant hide of course. Our underground hide is situated mere meters away from the lodge’s waterhole with non-stop action from Elephants rolling in the mud to terrapins poking their heads out from the water. With a fully stocked bar and the finest Italian coffee you wouldn’t want to leave this air-conditioned paradise. The hide is ideal for the amateur and professional photographer alike, giving amazing opportunities to capture the natural behaviour of wildlife from the low angle perspective. Among our guides are some talented photographers who are happy to share their knowledge with you.

Conservation Activity Safari

Occasionally we are able to arrange a special conservation activity safari where our guests are able to participate in real conservation work. This may include experiences such as wildlife capture and darting for the purposes of collecting scientific data or for veterinary procedures. Besides getting up close and personal with some of Africa’s most iconic species, you will get a deeper knowledge and understanding of the conservation challenges facing them. You will be contributing directly to this essential work. This is a once in a lifetime type of experience! Contact the lodge for further information and to book this group activity when available.
