Malaria & Safety

Vaccinations

Recommended; see websites below for more detailed immunization advice.

 

Malaria Risk

 

Most of the country is free of malaria, but the main wildlife area lies in a moderate-risk zone, including Kruger Area and all other Lowveld reserves in Mpumalanga.  The highest risk of transition is in the rainy season from October to May. As the group’s lodges border endemic Malaria areas we recommend that guests take necessary precautions by consulting with their Doctor or Pharmacy prior to visiting any of our Lodges, particularly in the Summer periods. Whilst Malaria cases in guests at our lodges are rare, it is the absolute responsibility of all who visit Malaria endemic regions to take recognized precautions. Guests are to be reminded that most of these precautions require the ingestion of medication sometime prior to arrival in the endemic area.

Safety

 

South Africa is a safe country to visit, in our opinion. All the more so if your visit is primarily an organized safari or tour. More than 10 million tourists visit South Africa every year, and most visits are trouble-free
