The fine print
Must-know information for guests at this property

Please note: Lukimbi Safari Lodge is approximately 45 minutes from the Malelane Gate. The Kruger National Park has strict opening and closing times, and guests will not be able to enter or leave the park outside of these times.

The property therefore recommends that guests flying in to Kruger Mpumalanga International Airport arrive at the airport between 11h00 and 12h00, but no later than 14h30 on the day of arrival.

Flights departing from Kruger Mpumalanga International Airport should depart no earlier than 10h00 on the day of departure.

The price includes all meals, tea and coffee and 2 game drives per day.

Please note, if there are children under the age of 8 years old, a private vehicle is required for game drives. This is available at a surcharge.

Please inform Lukimbi Safari Lodge of your expected arrival time in advance. You can use the Special Requests box when booking, or contact the property directly using the contact details in your confirmation.
