Pilansberg is great for a short safari experience. It's easily accessible, pretty compact, but large enough to to have a fantastic array of game, and a beautiful combination of mountains, plains and lakes. Tshukudu is a fabulous base, being inside the park, giving the opportunity to start your game drives as the sun is coming up and get out again late afternoon until it's dark. The lodge also has beautiful views over a largish plain, backed by hills, with a waterhole, so you can just keep on game watching right from your balcony! The service at the lodge is excellent and the food and wines,etc. plentiful and good quality. Special mention to our guide Jafari; he was excellent. Very knowledgeable about the bush, the animals, birds, flowers and a whole lot more. He was considerate on the drives and has a great knack of getting you to a good viewing point when one of the big 5 make an appearance. His colleague JR, we heard is equally knowledgeable and skilled,he was certainly super enthusiastic and obviously commited to the park when we spoke to him. The rooms are comfortable, spacious and have everything you might need. The balconies over looking the plain are sublime. The lodges will though need updating soon.. The thatched rooves are past their best and bathrooms dated and whilst the bath/shower with plain and game view is a great idea, be careful getting in and out. Yes, you need not just to be able to get up and down the 130+ steps to the lodge, but to be able to do it several times a day and get in and out of the shower successfully!

Tshukudu provided us with a faultless experience. The location and construction of the lodge provides an idyllic setting overlooking a busy watering hole. The villas are immaculate and equipped with every amenity we could ask for. The catering was excellent and the staff unfailingly polite and obliging. The highlights were the game drives and we could not have asked for a better guide than Jann-Rick (JR to everyone). Having spent his whole life in and around the park he provided us with answers to all our questions and just the right amount of interesting information about the park and its wildlife. We understand that there is an element of luck in what animals you are going to see, but we got very, very lucky! We cannot recommend this lodge highly enough.
