The Umkumbe Bush Lodge experience has been in the making since 1937, and for nearly a century, we’ve been preparing for your visit. Now, you can also experience warm Bushveld hospitality as our founders, the Wilkens family, envisioned. Each moment is steeped in heritage and careful planning – from coffee and rusks during the day’s first game drive to interactions around the crackling bonfire in the boma at nightfall – ensuring an authentic experience.
