Motivation for award: BushTime at Mabula is the ideal family getaway to create memories that will last a lifetime! With families in mind, BushTime has undergone some facility and offering upgrades. • Modjadji Camp offers fun for the entire family with a new 9-hole mini-golf course. The little ones can enjoy outdoor fun with a covered jumping pillow and a colourful jungle gym. The giant outdoor chess is sure to bring out the competitive side in both young and old. End the day with a swim in the sparkling pool while overlooking the wilderness. • Game Lodge offers a selection of active activities with tennis courts and a brand-new action sports court. Creating the perfect environment for action cricket, soccer, hockey and basketball. The new scooter track, jungle gym and play area are sure to keep the little ones busy for hours. BushTime offer guests a well-deserved break away from the concrete jungle. Enjoy the comforts you would expect in the beauty of the bush. Only a two hours’ drive from Johannesburg, the not so far safari will have you returning again and again. Depending on the time of year you visit, each safari experience can be unique. BushTime offers a wide variety of accommodation options throughout the year. This gives you the opportunity to select your favourite camp or time of the year. • If family fun is what you are looking for, we would recommend Modjadji Camp, focusing on the entire family. • Sunset Hill Camp is perfect for those looking for a more secluded environment. • If a more rugged bush experience is your thing, we would recommend Bush Lodge Camp. • For the city slickers wanting more of a lodge experience, Game Lodge will be the perfect setting.
