Redesigned Fitzpatrick’s at Jock Has Reopened

Perfectly positioned in the southern area of the Kruger National Park, Jock Safari Lodge rests at the confluence of the Mitomeni and Biyamiti rivers. This 6000ha exclusive concession is situated half way between Skukuza and the Malelane Gate, a mere 40-minute drive from the Skukuza airport. The legendary wildlife experiences are enhanced by the exclusive dry river bed traversing of 23km that only Jock guests can enjoy.

The Big Five sightings of lion, leopard, black and white rhino, herds of buffalo and elephant are frequent at Jock, not to mention the exceptional birding experiences on offer. Steeped in settler history, Jock Safari Lodge offers two luxury lodges reflecting the elegance of a bygone era. Activities such as daily guided game drives and walking safaris led by professional rangers offer close encounters with Africa’s wildlife.

Fitzpatrick’s at Jock has been redesigned and re-imaged.

The child-friendly, private camp has been redesigned and developed as the perfect home-away-from home. Accommodating families with children of all ages, Fitzpatrick’s is also perfectly suited to friends travelling together.

Fitzpatrick’s offers the Kids on Safari programme to encourage educational and recreational wildlife activities. Child minding services are available including educational game drives and wildlife activities. Guests can take a quiet moment to relax at the Pilgrim’s Rest Relaxation Retreat.

Retaining its rich, traditional safari lodge feel, but with a brand new lay-out and re-imagined interiors and styling, Fitzpatrick’s is centred around spacious indoor and outdoor lounge and dining areas, complete with a new TV lounge and a deck with a swimming pool.

The redesign includes a new enclosed family unit with two luxury suites with bathrooms, leading to a private lounge area, deck and plunge pool. Separately located, the third suite is completely private, also boasting its own plunge pool and deck with views across the river bed and wilderness.
