🦁 GAUTENG GAME LODGES
Game & Safari Lodges, Ranked by Tier
Gauteng's malaria-free safari — the Big Five Dinokeng Game Reserve north of Pretoria (Mongena, Kwalata and more), the Rhino & Lion and Krugersdorp reserves around the Cradle of Humankind, and the bush lodges and game farms within an hour of Joburg — ranked from luxury to comfortable. Each links to its website and a Booking.com compare option.
💡 Ranking is by tier (a blend of luxury, price and reputation), most luxurious first — an indicative guide, not an official grading. Most reserves offer game drives and are priced per person or per unit, as noted. Every card links to the lodge's own site plus a Booking.com option to compare and reserve. General hotels, guest houses and self-catering are in the separate Gauteng Accommodation guide. Always confirm rates and what's included before booking.
