One of the most popular holiday destinations on the African continent are the game reserves in South Africa. The Itaga Private Game Lodge is located close to the Waterberg Mountains in the Mabalingwe Nature Reserve. The area is considered to be free of malaria, which makes it attractive to holiday makers who are considering game reserves in South Africa. The lodge is just 2 hours travel from Johannesburg and is easily reached.

Itaga has become one of the most affordable game reserves in South Africa while still offering luxury accommodation. The chalets are air conditioned and have en-suite bathrooms with private patios. For a genuine African bush experience there are outdoor 'bush showers'. Itaga has a central complex with a dining room, a cosy lounge with a fire and a cocktail bar for relaxing evenings. As with many game reserves in South Africa there are plenty of relaxation facilities such as a swimming pool, a library and viewing decks.

Game reserves in South Africa are primarily for safaris and getting the chance to see the animals up close in their natural habitat, but that does not mean you have to rough it. Spending time in game reserves in South Africa can mean that you can take advantage of the luxury accommodation. The chalet rooms at Itaga are all styled on an African theme and are designed to provide maximum comfort, whether you are choosing to visit in the heat of summer or the cool of winter. As with many game reserves in South Africa, Itaga will bring you close to a number of different species of animal such as lions, elephants, giraffes, zebras and hyenas, among others. Some of the animals are kept in their own sections of the reserve which is for the protection of the holiday makers but they are still in their natural habitat.

For something different to do while you are visiting game reserves in South Africa you may want to do something a little more traditional and play a round of golf or visit the spa. The treatments that are available range from a manicure to a massage and there is a unique range of beauty products to try. Relaxing in a Jacuzzi while holidaying in South Africa is a good way to recharge your batteries while at the same time enjoying life away from the hustle and bustle of your usual routine.

There are many game reserves in South Africa but not all can offer you the variety of activities that Itaga can.
