There are two things that most people think when they talk about an African Safari… Stellar sightings and sublime sundowners! But, imagine having sundowners with the hippos!

The tradition of an ice cold beverage as the sun dips below the wild horizon is a truly iconic part of the safari experience. No matter the season, this is a memory that visitors to Africa always hold close and treasure forever.

Sundowners with the Rukiya Hippos

Our friends at Rukiya Safari Camp know how to throw together a special sundowner! Riverside refreshments with the resident hippos is a truly unforgettable experience. Enjoy a premium gin cocktail set to a chorus of Kruger bird life. Sunset with these amphibious mammals truly is a great way to wind down after a day in this this spectacular lodge.

We love spending time on this riverbank. Because one can spot coveted birds such as the African Finfoot and the Pets Fishing Owl. Exciting creatures like Chacma Baboons and Nile Crocodiles also make appearances, as do a myriad of small and large antelope!

The friendly atmosphere of the lodge, comfortable tented rooms and a helpful and informative board of staff make it the perfect place to relax and unwind in an African paradise.
