6 Day Lodge/Treehouse Safari - Marcs Tree House Lodge

Route:

A Microbus Safari to the Kruger Park
Marc’s Treehouse Lodge offers rustic but comfortable accommodation geared to put one in close contact with the sights, sounds and scents of the wild. The tree houses are made of wood and reeds under thatch and blend harmoniously into the dense riverine vegetation. Creature comforts include electric fans, mosquito nets and comfortable beds, with linen, towels and soap provied. Each tree house has its own private ablutions and features a viewing deck overlooking the perennial Klaserie River or the "Breakfast Dam", where animals often come to drink. 

The tree houses are unobtrusively located on the elevated banks of the river, providing excellent views of the terrain. Marc’s Treehouse Lodge forms part of the Motlala Game Reserve which boasts well-watered grazing for its varied fauna. White and black rhino, buffalo, giraffe, zebra and numerous antelope have made the Motlala Game Reserve a real wildlife paradise. Among the predators, leopard and hyena are more often heard than seen. The nights at Marc’s Treehouse Lodge are enriched by the calls of its denizens; the eerie whoops of hyena, the spine-tingling wail of jackals, the distant roar of lions, and the plaintive cry of the thick-tailed bush baby add an unforgettable aural dimension to one’s appreciation of the bush. 

Birds tend to be more vocal than most other creatures. In the thick canopy of the treetops at Marc’s Treehouse Lodge, probably due to restricted visibility, the avifauna are particularly noisy as they warn of predators, call their mates or proclaim the boundaries of their territories. Among the feathered fraternity at Marc’s Treehouse Lodge, colourful specials include narina trogon, purple-crested touraco, trumpeter hornbill, natal francolin and natal robinchat. The early morning cacophony of birdsong is a stark reminder that one is deep in the riverine bush.
