Black Rhino Game Lodge | Sun City, North West Province | Virgin Atlantic Holidays

Sun City, North West Province

4 stars

It may feel a million miles from anywhere, sitting at the foot of an old volcanic crater and hidden among Tamboti trees, but this Pilanesberg National Park pad is actually just a few hours’ drive from Jo’burg and 33km from the fun of Sun City. Its location makes it the ideal lodge for families, first-time safari seekers, and those wanting to mix game drives with Sun City’s attractions. Its handy setting doesn’t mean you’ll miss out on the safari experience though, with this malaria-free game reserve home to the famous Big Five and other photo album-favourites, and Black Rhino Game Lodge overlooking a popular wildlife-attracting waterhole.

“Best Experience We Could Have Asked For.”

Sep 16, 2025Anita B

It was an amazing experience, big thanks to the staff and especially Freedom who not only got us sighting of the big five, but so much more like rare sightings of some water buffalo and a baby leopard. Was absolutely magical and would visit again in a heart beat. The food was divine and the staff were genuinely so sweet and helpful. Big thanks from the Canadians.

“My experience wouldn't have been the same without Dolfie!”

I recently visited the Black Rhino lodge with a group of friends and our experience was absolutely unforgettable all thanks to Dolfie… From the first moment, it was very clear how passionate and knowledgable he is. Dolfie’s ability to spot wildlife, share facts and create a fun environment made the trip so special. Dolfie didn’t just show us the animals, he bought the whole experience to life. His energy was unforgettable. Thank you to Dolfie and the whole team for making our trip so special.

“1st Safari experience”

Sep 13, 2025Allunnicks

Great experience, lovely food, friendly staff and a great location. Early morning game ride is cold so make sure you take trousers and jacket. We had a great time and we were luck enough to see the big 5. Would recommend to anyone and look forward to hopefully coming back one day.
