REVIEW

I look forward to many more visits

If you are looking for an amazing experience then Madikwe Hills will definitely not disappoint. Hannes and his team are so welcoming, warm and friendly. The food was outstanding and the service was superb. Nothing to wish for when on the game drives as their rangers and trackers are absolutely amazing. I look forward to many more visits!!
