Step into the wild with us 🌿

One of the most unforgettable experiences at Umkumbe Bush Lodge is our guided bushwalks — a chance to slow down, switch off, and truly connect with the African bush on foot.

Led by our experienced armed trails guides, a bushwalk is all about seeing the bush from a completely different perspective. Without the engine of a vehicle, you begin to notice the smaller details you might normally miss — animal tracks in the sand, the calls of birds, medicinal plants, insects, and the incredible interconnectedness of the ecosystem around you.

It’s not just about spotting wildlife (although you might get lucky 👀), it’s about understanding the stories the bush is constantly telling.

Every step is safe, educational, and deeply immersive — a reminder that we are visitors in a living, breathing wilderness.

Come experience the wild, the way it was meant to be experienced.

Safari isn’t only about the big game sightings. Sometimes it’s pausing between drives and noticing something delicate, quiet, and beautiful right in camp. 🦋

The little things can be just as unforgettable.

A mother in the wild teaches survival, but she also teaches love through patience, protection, and presence.

She carries the weight of keeping her young safe in a world full of uncertainty.🌍

Today we celebrate those same qualities in mothers everywhere. The quiet strength, the sacrifices no one sees, and the love that never stops.

Happy Mother’s Day 🤍

Wow review Wednesday 🤩
5/5 stars

We’ve been to the Umkumbe Bush Lodge for Honeymoon and we’ve had an amazing experience. We spent 3 nights at the Honeymoon tent and 1 night at the superior tent.

Both of them were great, but the Honeymoon tent has a private pool and a nice view from the balcony - highly recommend it. I could not have choosen better acommodation - if you like camping, it’s a really great experience. We’re able to hear lions and hyenas from the tent during the night, and also could watch elephants, warthogs, zebras and impalas from the balcony of our Honeymoon tent during our stay (and also from the swimming pool and bar area).

The game drives were awesome, not crowdy, lots of times we had only our car stopping for animals or not more than 3 cars at the same time. They do go off road for the big five, which allows you to see them very closely - our guide Brandon was really nice. We had the same guide also for the bush walk and that was very interesting (we had the lucky of watching elephants during the walk).

The food was delicious, all meals well served. Everything in the lodge is very clean and organised, all the staff very kind and gentle. The dinner at the Boma outside is fantastic.

We would definitely come back :)
