Our Safaris
Wheelchair Safari Activities
Ximuwu’s wheelchair-friendly game vehicles include slide-out seats with ramp access, so that everyone can explore the wilderness at their own pace.
Beyond our breathtaking game drives, Ximuwu offers thermal-vision night drives, photographic hides, sound safaris, and wheelchair-accessible helicopter rides — unique safari experiences that allow you to explore the bush in a whole new way.
Our Lodge
5-Star Excellence
We’re the only 5-star premium lodge in South Africa with Universal Access Level 3, meaning that Ximuwu meets high standards for both accessibility and hospitality.
The common areas are easy to navigate, featuring wide corridors and doorways, accessible paths, ramps, a pool lift, and height-adjustable seating. Our spa, bar, and dining areas were designed with access in mind.
Rooms are equipped with adjustable beds, navigation lights, and accessible en-suite bathrooms to ensure both safety and comfort.
Our Location
